Description
The EVANS Hydraulic Black brings back the fat, short, deep punch that defined early-70s rock drumming. Its construction sandwiches a thin film of oil between two plies, which naturally dampens overtones while adding durability that stands up to hard playing.
- 12-inch size, black Hydraulic finish
- Two-ply design with an internal oil layer for built-in dampening
- Fat, deep, short tone suited to classic rock and heavy hitting
- Easy to tune, ideal for players who struggle with tricky drums or lack tuning experience
Fit is handled by EVANS’ Level 360 technology, which extends a true, flat playing surface all the way around the head. The collar is vertically enhanced so it meets the bearing edge of your shell evenly at every point, not just in a few spots. That even contact translates directly into easier tuning, a wider usable pitch range, and cleaner sound overall.
This design also fixes a common headache with synthetic heads: having to force them onto a shell that doesn’t quite match up. With Level 360, the head seats properly without a fight, saving your hands and your shell’s bearing edge from unnecessary wear.
Whether you’re troubleshooting a drum that never seems to sound right or just want a low-fuss head with vintage character, the Hydraulic Black 12″ delivers both tone and practicality in one package.
