Problem and Solution
Compact and easily transportable drum sets are becoming increasingly popular. Most of these so-called street or jam kits come with a 16-inch bass drum, and this is where the problem lies. Bass drum heads were usually only available in sizes starting at 18 inches. Additionally, many 16-inch bass drums are actually converted floor toms where a bass drum head does not fit easily. The American manufacturer Evans offers a solution with new 16-inch bass drum heads from its most popular series.
Bass Hoops or Tom Hoops?
The 16-inch size is not the only special feature of these new heads. The skins from the EMAD, EQ4, GENERA, and EQ3 series are each available in two versions. The "Bass Hoop" heads fit regular 16-inch bass drums, while the "Tom Hoop" heads are designed for converted floor toms.
Evans EQ3
The EQ3 heads consist of a single layer of Mylar film with a thickness of 10 mil. An integrated damping ring reduces unwanted harmonics and shortens sustain.
