BD22CT - '56 Calftone 22" bass drum head

Evans Calftone

With the Evans '56 series, the American manufacturer is following the trend for the good old drum sounds of the fifties and sixties of the last century.
The Evans Calftone heads are made from a modern Mylar material mix that is modeled on traditional calf heads in terms of sound and appearance, but offers significant advantages in terms of durability and tunability.

The Mylar film for Evans Calftone skins is 12 mil thick, just over 0.3 mm. The special material mix of the foil creates very warm and rich sounds with the sustain typical of calfskin. In addition to the standard version, the Evans Calftone heads are available in two variations: EQ4 Calftone and EMAD Calftone.
