Product Description
As part of the D'Addario family, a world - leader in musical instrument accessories, the Evans brand stands for top - notch quality and reliability. Years ago, Evans led the way in drumhead manufacturing and design, and they're still at the forefront of innovation today. Made in the USA, Calftone drumheads offer a synthetic option to traditional calfskin. They look and sound like calfskin, but thanks to Evans' Level 360 Technology, they provide consistent performance, a perfect fit, and a wide tuning range. The 12mil Mylar base, combined with special materials, produces warm, full, and rich tones. These heads can enhance the sound of a vintage kit and give modern drums a classic look and sound. You can use Calftone as both batter and resonant heads.
Using your Evans 20 - inch Calftone drumhead is easy. First, make sure your drum is clean and dry. Then, place the drumhead on the drum, align it properly, and start tightening the lugs evenly. You can adjust the tension to get the sound you like, whether it's a deep, booming tone or a higher - pitched one. When it comes to maintenance, keep the drumhead away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth after each use to remove dust and fingerprints. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it might be time to replace the drumhead. And remember, you can use this drumhead as either a batter or resonant head, so experiment to find the setup that suits your playing style best.
