Evans BD20HB 20inch Hydraulic Blue - Bass

As part of the D'Addario family, a world - leading name in musical instrument accessories, Evans is renowned for its quality and consistency. With a history of pioneering drumhead manufacturing and design, Evans continues to innovate. These Hydraulic Blue two - ply bass heads are made in the USA. A thin oil film between the plies suppresses unwanted overtones, delivering a classic, short - sustain sound like early 70s rock and roll. They're super easy to tune, ideal for challenging drums or players new to tuning. Tighten the tension for a powerful thump or loosen it for a slappy sound.

Using these drumheads is simple. First, place the drumhead on your bass drum. Make sure it's centered properly. Then, start tightening the tension rods evenly around the drum. If you want a deep, thumping sound, tighten the rods more. For a slappy, lighter sound, keep the tension looser. When tuning, turn the rods in small increments and check the sound frequently. As for maintenance, keep the drumhead clean. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth after each use to remove any dirt or sweat. Store the drum in a dry place to prevent the drumhead from warping. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or high humidity, as this can affect the performance and lifespan of the drumhead.
