I play mainly metal, so a coated snare head just results in my cymbals being covered in the worn-off coating after minimal playing but the colortone P77 alleviates this issue!
The tonal character that it gives my Yamaha Recording Custom Brass snare when I crank it up is unmistakeable, I will definitely stick with these for the future!
10/10 for Rock, Metal or any other genre that you need your snare to cut through.
(Plus they look so cool!)
