Barney has been using Code heads for a few months now, recently putting new heads on his kit: Zero on the snare, Law donut dot on the toms and a Blast on the bass drum. He's also used a Sterling on a second snare. Barney plays with Doomicidal - described as "70's inspired doom with psychedelic touches". "I stumbled across Code by accident, but I'm glad I did. |
| DNA clear heads are suited to both batter and resonant use. They are constructed of a single, clear 10mils PET, giving great attack and depth and a wide, open tone with long decay. The heads also have a wide tuning range, increasing their versatility - great all-rounders. DNA clear heads are available in 8"-18". |
DNA COATED SINGLE PLY (Batter)
A great all-round head for any genre from light jazz through to rock. DNA coated heads can be used on toms or snare. The construction is 10mils single ply with a textured coating. The coating helps reduce overtones and gives a warm, big, fat sound. Strong attack and medium decay. DNA coated heads are available in 6"-18". | |
Law Single Ply with Surface Donut Dot (Batter)
| Single 10mils clear ply with a 5mils PET donut dot. The PET dot gives extra durability and brings out more of the mid-tones for a classic retro sound. They can also be used as resonant heads. Also great for use on snare drums to give a unique and timeless sound. Law heads are available in 8"-18". |
We do also have limited stocks of the old design Law heads with a solid centre dot, although these have been discontinued.
Generator Twin Ply Clear (Batter)
Generator heads suit the heavier hitter who wants a punchy and controlled sound. The 18” can also be used on kick drum. Constructed from 2 x 7mils plies with bonded ring around the outside edge, which focuses and controls the sound and overtones and also gives the skins fast attack and decay. For a more open sound, use with DNA clear as the resonant heads, or for a more deadened sound, use with Reso Ring (RR). We currently only stock the clear Generator heads, but can order the coated variety for you. Generator heads are available in 8"-18". | |
Reso Ring (RR) (Resonant)
| Clear single 7mils ply with a narrow dampening ring around the outside edge. Developed to prevent drummers from having to use tape or taping tissue etc to the bottom of their toms to reduce the ring! The dampening ring helps to reduce unwanted overtones. Gives a punchy and controlled sound with reduced overtones and short decay. The heads make it much easier for sound engineers to control the sound of the toms when the drums are mic'd. RR heads are available in 8"-18". |
All of our prices in our web store include shipping to the mainland UK - if preferred you can collect your heads in person (at slightly lower costs due to lack of fees etc - please ask for a quote).
If you'd like any advice on selecting the best type of heads for your kit, drop me an e-mail, I'll be happy to help!
