Heads that are warm, dense, focused, and with a clear attack in all tuning and dynamic ranges.

The Evans EC2 SST Coated Batter Drumhead offers an edge control ring mounted under 2 plies of 7-mil film. The EC2 drumhead controls vibration instead of eliminating it. It also dampens higher overtones, enhances low-end attack, and supports a broader tuning range.

Evans EC2 Sound Shaping Technology (SST)
Evans improved EC2 drumheads contain Evans' exclusive Sound Shaping Technology (SST). Sound Shaping Technology allows the drumheads to be fully optimized for each individual size by varying the thickness and density of the damping material, ensuring greatly improved performance and tone across the entire kit. Unlike other heads that lack SST, Evans EC2s contain the ability to balance attack and tone for each size. The result is a drumhead series fine-tuned for attack, tone, length of sustain, and ease of tuning. Packed with a more balanced and pre-EQ'd sound across the full kit, the vans EC2 with SST will make your toms sound better than you ever thought possible. Here is what the pros are saying:


"So I just gave the new EC2s a test run overseas. They sound great!! I used them on a Mapex Orion kit. The new muffling rings are nice! After pounding these for a few shows they stayed focused." —Chris Pennie

"The new EC2s are so incredible! The attack and tone has somehow been magnified, when I'm playing these heads the feel, definition and tone that I'm able to draw out of them is amazing and is so sweet to the ear." —Camille Grainer

"The new Evans EC2 SSTs are amazing. My toms sound so warm and lush. These drum heads bring out the true sound of the drums." —Dean Butterworth

"The best just got better – the new EC2 SST drumheads are incredible!" —Preston Heyman – The Wolfmen and U.K. Session Supremo

I replaced EC2's that were on my toms with these. The EC2's were already way better than other tom heads, but these really are excellent heads. I'm using them on a Tama Bubinga set...even crummy heads sound good on them, but these SST's really bring out the lows without any ringiness or boingyness. Try them with Remo fiberskyn 3's on the bottom (stretch both heads first though). Deep toms with tone and playability. That's what it's about for me....of course if you prefer that boingy overtone, go with ambassadors

These are great heads for any drum that is 12 inches or bigger but no matter how many ways you try it, they will ALWAYS wrinkle during application on 8 and 10inch drums.

If anyone out there is considering these heads, go for it!I currently have a Gretsch catalina Ash kit with these heads and the sound is unbelievable.I have tried Remo heads,G-1's,and a few others,but these take the cake.I heard someone say that these heads do not sound good on Gretsch drums,but they are wrong.It's all about bearing edges and tuning,and these heads tune very easily.Buy them,you won't be sorry!
