Evans TT12ECR EC Resonant Drum Head, 12 Inch

I have used the Evans G1 coated as my batter head for years, with Evans clear G1 as mt resonant head. They provided a great sound, the sound I was looking for, but I had to tune often. I switched to the Evans EC2 clear and could not be happier with the sound texture I'm getting. I play Maple 9 ply Keller shells, and the sound I get from the Evans EC2 is full, punchy, sensitive, responsive, resonant and satisfying. All this with excellent tuning stability. I also use Evans EC2 clear resonant heads which I love equally as much as the EC2 batter heads. I would highly recommend this head combination for any type of drum shell. Plus they are super easy to tune.

My Spaun kit has dbl 45 degree bear edges. With g1 or g2 reso's the overtones the drums produce is just too much. Been using EC2 resos and EC2 batter heads for over a decade. They quiet the unwanted overtones without choking my drums. Engineers love the sound when I'm recording because they don't have to do a lot of compression when mixing. I'll never use any other resonant heads on my kits. Period. They're that good.

We just finished installing one of these resonant heads on our DW 18" floor tom to try and tame the sustain. This head sounds good and it definitely cut the ringing tone from this cannon of a floor tom. The head was easy to install and bring up to pitch. Immediately I could tell the tone was improved. An interesting way to predict the heads performance is to hold it up on your finger (not installed on a drum) and just tap the center of the head gently with your finger. Comparing the original DW-Remo to this Evans EC-18 was very revealing, the DW-Remo was very boomy with lots of sustain while the Evans-EC did not boom or sustain. Our DW kit just lives in our recording studio, it is not moved around for gigs. This Evans-EC head helps the floor tom speak authoritatively without too much low frequency sustain. Good music to you!

I was skeptical of trying these heads. I was never much a fan of the Remo Pinstripes, but I'm pleasantly surprised by how punchy and resonant these heads are. I usually prefer a traditional coated single ply head like a Remo Ambassador, but I have a set of drums that just don't sound very good with an Ambassador. They tend to "honk" rather than give me the pure resonant tone I'm looking for. These EC Reso heads sound great on my drums.

Could not get a 12" Tom to sound right picked up this rsi head problem solved

I researched drum heads for quite a while before purchasing these. They are perfect. I have a studio kit and I have been taping the heads to deaden the ringing and I got tired of all that so I purchased these and there is no ring, no tape, just great sound!

I use these on my Yamaha Stage Custom Birch toms and they really control any unwanted overtones. Really nice heads!

I wanted a clear batter head to showoff the interior of a snare drum I have but still sound right. This is the same thickness as a G1 or Ambassador (10mm) and the overtone rings give minor tone control much like a coating would. It sounds very slightly different than a coated 1-ply but is a great compromise for my special purpose.
