Evans UV1

Single ply with a UV-cured coating

UV1's coating is cured with ultraviolet light rather than sprayed, which makes it far more durable than a conventional coated head while sounding much like one.

Category

  • Drumheads

    The consumable that changes a drum's voice more than the shell does. Single and double ply, clear and coated, with and without built-in muffling.

Made by

  • Evans

    Chick Evans made the first plastic drumhead in the 1950s, and the brand — part of D'Addario since the mid-1990s — is one of two names that cover most of the market. Evans is associated with the level-360 collar, oil-filled double-ply heads, and the EMAD system's interchangeable external muffling ring.
