Aquarian MOTC 16" Vintage Modern Medium Coated Drum Head

The Aquarian Modern Vintage MOTC medium coated drum head brings calfskin warmth to a single–ply modern design. This 16" drumhead uses a 10mil medium–weight construction that balances tone control with expressive response. Aquarian's proprietary coating replicates the look, feel, and sonic character of traditional calfskin while maintaining the tuning stability and durability of contemporary synthetic materials. The result is a head that delivers vintage warmth without the unpredictability of animal skin.

The single–ply 10mil construction provides controlled sustain and focused attack, making it well–suited to both floor toms and rack configurations. That coating technology does more than cosmetic work – it dampens overtones naturally while retaining fundamental frequencies, producing the dry, warm tonality associated with classic recordings from the 1960s and 1970s. The medium weight sits between Aquarian's 7mil thin version and heavier two–ply models, offering enough body for louder playing without choking the drum's natural resonance.
