The Evans EMAD 2 series offers a winning combination of performance and durability. With an outer 7 - mil ply and an inner 10 - mil ply, it's built to last. Thanks to the industry - leading EMAD (Externally Mounted Adjustable Damping) system, you'll enjoy sharp attack, great focus, and long - lasting quality. Ideal for rock and gospel music.


Using your Evans BD18EMAD2 bass drum is straightforward. Just set it up in your drum kit as you normally would. When you play, you'll notice the great attack and focus right away. For the best sound, adjust the EMAD system to suit your playing style. When it comes to maintenance, keep the drum in a dry place to prevent the ply from warping. Wipe it down regularly with a soft cloth to remove dust. Avoid hitting the drum too hard with sharp objects, as this could damage the plies. If you're not using the drum for a long time, cover it to protect it from dirt and scratches.
