Only bass drum head I use

Tom98 31.05.2013

After years of trying different skins for my bass drum, I looked no further than the Emad, had never let me down before and got a great boom out of my 22" kick. So after switching to a bop/jazz kit, the first thing I ordered was an Emad 2, I can assure you, it makes an 18" bass drum sound like a 22 inch. Gets compliments anywhere I go. Recommend 100%

Easy bass drum sounds for the hard of tuning

Iain Robert 26.01.2017

I have one of these on my 22 in bass drum from my main kit so when i bought a jazz kit for small gigs it was a no brainer to get one for it too. I was not disappointed- the drum sounds much bigger than it dd with the standard fit head- the smaller foam ring controls the overtones well and means that i don't have to fill the drum with padding or put a hole in the front head. Amazing quality from Evans yet again!

Very versatile bass drum head

Andres6992 07.08.2015

I really liked the sound of the Evans Emad2 for 18 inches drums in a more Pop, Latin situation. However I tried to use it on a 18" converted tom with Tom rims and couldn't make it work.

Godfather of kick skins

Liam91 30.05.2022

This has got to be the big daddy of kick drum skins. Every time I’ve used this on a bass drum it’s sounded punchy and massive. With the added 2 rings you really can get that sound you’re going for. Great work evans!
