Evans BD24MX1B 24inch MX1 Black - Marching Bass

As part of the globally - leading D'Addario family in musical instrument accessories, the Evans brand stands for top - notch quality and reliability. With a history of decades as pioneers in drumhead making, Evans continues to innovate. The MX1 Marching Bass head, made in the USA, is crafted from a single 10 mm film ply. It creates a bright tone and comes with a unique tone - damping system that sharpens articulation and focuses on the low - end. The adjustable felt damping arcs let you adapt it for both indoor and outdoor marching. Available in multiple sizes and in black or white.

Using the Evans MX1 Marching Bass head is easy. First, make sure your drum is clean and dry. Then, carefully install the head on the drum, tightening the lugs evenly for a balanced sound. When adjusting the felt damping arcs, you can move them around based on whether you're playing indoors or outdoors. For indoor use, you might want a softer sound, so adjust the arcs accordingly. For outdoor marching, a more focused and louder sound is usually better. As for maintenance, keep the head away from extreme heat, cold, and humidity. Wipe it gently with a clean, dry cloth after each use to remove dust and debris. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it's time to replace the head.
