I've been on a drum head / tuning quest for several weeks now.
Here's what I've found and this is only for me in my current drumming environment.
What I have for heads. Evans hydraulic Black Glass, Evans G2 clear, Remo Emperor clear and coated, Remo Ambassador clear and coated, Remo clear and coated pins, Aquarian black suede and single ply clear reso's on everything based on the drum brands supplied version.
The kits include Tama Starclassic B/B, Tama Silverstar birch, Yamaha Live Custom (Oak) and Pearl Masters MCX maples.
I've tried all different combination on all the shells.
My taste is a bright clear punch with good resonation.
What I found works for me in every situation is single ply clear both top and bottom.
I just today ordered enough G1 clears to do all drums 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16" on all sets top and bottom. They should be here by Wednesday and I'll be spending the next 4 months swapping heads.
On a good note I will have several sets of near new heads with maybe 30 days of run time but probably in all about 2 hours of actual playing time. Some are still in multi packs, some are singles and some haven't been used yet due to my findings and results.
If there is anything anyone is looking for I will probably like to sell them in sets or singles for about 25% of what they retail for.
If anyone is interested in some good deals but with stick marks, let me know what you are looking for and I will be happy to check my stacks of very good condition heads and see if we can make a deal. I can post pictures so you can see the conditions of anything you might be interested in. All heads were purchased less than a year ago so there are no nasty old heads in the mix

wow might have to hit you up myself also.
I'm in the process of taking inventory of what I have so you guys don't have to guess what is available.
I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused!

Wow, I didn't realize what all I had. I'm going to post them in size and description. That is how I have them stacked. All out of box items have some wear but all are still very usable. Some are unused and will be labeled that way at the end of the description line. All boxed items have never been used and are retail perfect.
Here goes.

Geez Bish - you have a better selection of drum heads than my local music store!
I know, right? I was like, "Oh man this is going to take forever." I also found a head or two laying around in the different rooms of my basement.
Tell ya what. The first $350.00 gets them all shipped to the lucky recipient. The bass drum heads alone are worth that.

Bish.................what a selection !!!
Hard to believe you don't have one head in which I'm interested.
Except perhaps the 13" Coated Emp.
You prefer those over the clear ?
I'm playing a 24 bass and a 15 small FT along with an 18 FT............I don't think a ported head will work.
I know...................my shell sizes are weirdo..............
Gretsch USA & Zildjian(What Else Would I Ever Need ?)
Anything I had in 13" was probably for my DDrum snare I had several years. My resurrection kit came with 12 and 13 mounted tom duo. That's possibly the reason for 13" heads in my collection.
I also had 24" bass drums with my Rogers kit from long ago. Have had 20 or 22's since then.
