Evans EQ-Pad Bass Drum Mute

Easy mounting, i do use a little gaffatape to connect to batterhead, thats why its gets 4 out of 5 stars. But i do the job vere well, and you dont need pillow or other not nice device .-)

currently using this mute pad on my 18" mapex bass drum - I have to say i find it great - its neat and secure and mutes nicely. I like that fact that it doesn't move around when packing the kit away because its secured by adhesive strips. I use a shure 91a and it sits perfectly just sitting on the pad. all in all its a great product - i would however prefer if it was a little heavier!

The mute does what it says in spite of the lightness of it. It is well enough made and surprisingly light in it's construction.

However for my particular taste I needed to buy two pads in order to get both heads sounding like I want them to. My bass drum is a 24"x18" in case that's relevant to someone.

I used to put a small blanket in my bass drum, until I saw a fellow drummer using this.
The blanket kept moving around while playing. The Evans EQ-Pad can be fixed onto the shell so it stays in place even when transporting the bass drum.
The EQ-Pad takes off the ring of the sound when hitting the bass drum which is ideal for playing pop and rock music.
Good investment.

This item is nothing special. It damp kick drum but you can use any pillow or something like that to have same or even better result.

Great system for dampening the bass drum. Comes with velcro straps and very easy to fit.
