When you want a fat, deep tone with short sustain and classic vibe, the Evans Hydraulic Tom Batter Head delivers a sound that takes you straight back to the roots of rock. Originally made famous by the drummers of the 1970s, this dual-ply head features a thin layer of oil between two plies of film, expertly engineered to suppress unwanted overtones while producing a dark, defined tone with an ultra-controlled decay. The result is a uniquely short, punchy sound that’s ideal for rock, gospel, funk, and metal drummers alike. Its quick response and easy tunability make it a go-to choice for players who want bold attack and effortless setup. The Evans Hydraulic series also features Level 360 Technology, which expands the tuning range and ensures a snug, consistent fit across all shell types. Made in the USA at Evans’ New York production facility, this drumhead offers extended durability for hard-hitting players. Available now at Haggerty’s Music in Rapid City, SD.
