As part of the D’Addario family, the world - leading brand in musical instrument accessories, Evans is well - known for its top - notch quality and consistent performance. Decades ago, Evans led the way in drumhead manufacturing and design, and today, they continue to innovate. These drumheads are designed, engineered, and made in the USA. The patented UV - cured coating and the revolutionary 10 - mil film give the Evans UV1 series drumheads the amazing durability that drummers have always hoped for. They also come with the Evans' Level 360 collar, which helps the drumhead sit evenly on the bearing edge, resulting in better tone and easier tuning.
Using your Evans BD16UV1 16 - inch bass drumhead is straightforward. First, make sure your drum is clean and dry. Then, place the drumhead on the drum, aligning it properly with the bearing edge. Use the tuning lugs to tighten the drumhead gradually, and make small adjustments until you get the tone you like. When it comes to maintenance, keep your drumhead away from extreme temperatures and humidity, as these can affect its performance and lifespan. Also, avoid hitting the drumhead too hard with sharp objects, which can cause scratches or tears. If you notice any dirt or debris on the drumhead, you can gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. With proper use and care, your Evans drumhead will serve you well for a long time.
