Evans UV2 Coated 8-inch Tom Batter Drumhead (B08UV2): Unrivaled Durability, Focused Tone, and Warm Attack

The Evans UV2 Coated 8-inch Tom Batter Drumhead (B08UV2) is a cutting-edge, two-ply drumhead designed for drummers who demand the absolute best in durability, a focused sound, and a warm, punchy attack, specifically tailored for smaller tom drums. It features Evans' revolutionary UV-cured coating, which is incredibly resistant to chipping, flaking, and wear, ensuring consistent sound and appearance for significantly longer than traditional coated heads. The two-ply construction provides enhanced attack and a controlled sustain, making it ideal for a wide range of musical genres and playing styles.

Key Features for Longevity, Feel, and Sonic Clarity

The B08UV2 drumhead is engineered with specific attributes to deliver a consistent, high-performance sound:

• Two-Ply 7mil Film Construction: This head consists of two plies of 7mil film (totaling 14mil). This dual-ply design delivers a robust, full sound with a solid attack, excellent durability, and controlled sustain, perfect for taming the often-lively overtones of an 8-inch tom.

• Proprietary UV-Cured Coating: The standout feature of the UV2 is its unique, UV-cured coating. This advanced process results in a coating that is remarkably resistant to wear, chipping, and flaking, ensuring the head maintains its sound and aesthetic integrity for an extended period. This provides a consistent brush response and stick feel throughout its lifespan.

• Warm, Punchy Attack with Controlled Sustain: The two plies combined with the coated finish produce a warm, focused attack and a quick, controlled sustain. It helps to bring out the fundamental pitch of the drum while minimizing unwanted ring, making the 8-inch tom sound fuller and more defined.

• Enhanced Tuning Stability: The superior construction and UV-cured coating contribute to excellent tuning stability, allowing the head to hold its pitch consistently even under varied playing conditions.

• Level 360 Technology: Incorporates Evans' revolutionary Level 360 Technology. This innovative collar design ensures a perfectly level fit on the drum shell's bearing edge, maximizing contact all around the drum. This results in easier tuning, an extended pitch range, and optimized sound quality and response across all tension points.

• Unprecedented Durability: The combination of two plies and the UV-cured coating makes the UV2 one of the most durable drumheads on the market, offering exceptional longevity for even the hardest-hitting drummers.

• Versatile Application: Its blend of durability, controlled tone, and warm attack makes the UV2 highly versatile. It excels in rock, pop, R&B, funk, gospel, and studio recording, or any genre where a robust, articulate, and long-lasting tom sound is desired from smaller drums.

• Made in USA: All Evans drumheads are proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA, upholding high standards of quality and consistency in their manufacturing process.

The Evans UV2 Coated 8-inch Tom Batter Drumhead (B08UV2) is an exceptional choice for drummers seeking maximum durability, a warm and focused tone, and consistent performance from their 8-inch tom, setting a new benchmark for coated drumhead longevity and sound quality.
