The Evans EMAD 20" Heavyweight Clear Bass Drum Head represents the company's approach to durability and tonal flexibility in kick drum design. Built with two plies of 10 mil film, this head delivers the reinforced construction needed for aggressive playing styles whilst offering genuine customisation through Evans' proprietary EMAD foam damping rings. Manufactured in the USA, the EMAD platform has become the standard for drummers seeking control over attack character and sustain without replacing the head entirely.
Sonically, the Heavyweight Clear exhibits a nicely defined attack with short sustain and semi–bright tonal character–traits that suit rock and metal players who demand punch without excessive resonance. The dual 10 mil plies provide significant durability under hard striking, whilst the included EMAD foam rings allow precise tone shaping by adjusting attack focus and decay. Level 360 Technology, featured across all Evans drumheads, optimises tuning ease and extends the usable pitch range, ensuring consistent sound quality across different tuning tensions.
