Evans 8" UV1 Coated

Part of the D'Addario percussion line, Evans provide an extensive range of the highest quality drum heads for snare, bass drum, toms, timpani, marching snare, congas, bongos and timbale. Famed for their efficiency and durability in a live setting, as well as their sound quality and tonal response in a studio setting, they are one of the leading brands of drum heads amongst drummers today. Evans have been innovating in the drum world for over 60 years and were the first company to offer synthetic (non animal skin) heads to drummers. These days they pin their reputation on their Level 360 technology which they claim offers the best connection with the bearing edge of any drum head and consequently the most consistent tuning. Evans went back to the drawing board with their coating process to create the UV1 coated heads. Using a unique UV coating technique, Evans have made a head that is not just more uniform and balanced but also impressively durable. These heads show next to no wear even after hours of playing. Perfect for drummers who are sick of worn out our chipped coatings. UV1 heads also feature an increased surface texture making them great for brush players.
