The Evans UV series drum heads are a culmination of hundreds of hours spent fine-tuning their proprietary UV coating, which changes the game in terms of responsiveness and durability. Positive feedback on this line of drum heads was through the roof when they released it, showing that Evans is onto something special.
The UV EQ4 Coated Bass Drum Head is a single-ply head with a UV coating that doesn't wear out, even after months of heavy hitting. The single ply means the head maintains a lot of warmth and resonance, but the coating helps focus the sound and create the thick thump many drummers are after.
The inclusion of a 10-mil overtone control ring helps balance the thump and attack with the length and brightness of the resonance to improve focus and clarity.
These heads are also stretch and dent resistant as a result of the treated coating, contributing again to their durability. They fall in line with a high standard of tone, punch, longevity, and projection, making these an excellent all-around option for your drum.
