Evans BD22HB 22inch Hydraulic Blue - Bass

As part of the globally - leading D'Addario family in musical instrument accessories, the Evans brand stands for top - notch quality and reliability. Years ago, Evans led the way in drumhead making and design, and today they're still at the forefront of innovation. These Hydraulic Blue two - ply bass heads are made in the USA. They have a thin oil film between the plies that cuts out unwanted overtones, giving you a classic sound like the early 70s rock and roll, with a short sustain. What's great is they're super easy to tune, ideal for tricky drums or players who aren't tuning experts. Tighten the tension for a powerful thump or loosen it for a slappy sound.

Using this Evans Hydraulic Blue bass drumhead is straightforward. First, make sure your drum is clean and dry. Place the drumhead on the drum and start tightening the lugs evenly. You can adjust the tension to get the sound you want - tight for a thump, loose for a slappy tone. When tuning, it's best to make small adjustments to each lug at a time to maintain an even tension across the drumhead. As for maintenance, keep the drumhead away from excessive heat, humidity, and sharp objects. After each use, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. If it gets dirty, you can use a mild, non - abrasive cleaner. And remember, regular tuning will help keep the drumhead in good shape and your drums sounding great.
