Evans EMAD 20" Bass Drumhead - BD20EMAD

Evans EMAD 20" Bass Drumhead – BD20EMAD

Adjustable Damping for Versatile Sound Options

This 20" bass drumhead from Evans features a single-ply 10mil clear film and the EMAD damping system. The construction allows for quick adjustments to the damping level, making it suitable for a wide range of musical settings.

Three Damping Levels with the EMAD System

The EMAD system includes two interchangeable damping rings that fit into a plastic sleeve on the drumhead’s outer surface. The narrow ring offers a more open tone with clear highs and lows, while the wide ring reduces low midrange frequencies for a more focused and defined sound. Playing without any ring provides increased resonance in the midrange, reminiscent of classic felt strip damping.

Stable Fit with Level 360

Evans' Level 360 design ensures even contact between the drumhead and shell from the moment of installation. This improves tuning stability and provides a balanced tone, even at lower tunings. The construction supports consistent performance across the dynamic range.
