Key Features for Focused Sound and Reliability

The TT08G2 drumhead is designed with specific attributes to deliver a consistent, high-performance sound:

• Two-Ply 7mil Film Construction: The G2 Clear features a robust two-ply design, with each ply being 7mil thick, totaling 14mil of durable film. This construction provides exceptional durability, allowing the head to withstand frequent and aggressive playing, while also contributing to a focused sound with a balanced attack and controlled sustain—ideal for smaller diameter drums.

• Clear Film: The clear film finish ensures a bright, immediate attack and allows the fundamental tonal characteristics and resonance of your drum shell to project clearly. This contributes to a modern, articulate, and cutting drum sound, perfect for punchy tom fills.

• Balanced Depth, Attack, and Controlled Sustain: The G2 series is renowned for its versatility. For an 8-inch tom, it offers a great balance, producing a tight, punchy tone with a clear, defined attack that cuts through a mix, and a controlled sustain that prevents unwanted ringing, making fast passages clean and articulate.

• 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, a wider tonal range, and optimized sound quality and response across all tension points, making precise tuning simpler and more efficient, particularly beneficial for smaller, higher-pitched drums.

• High Durability: The two-ply construction significantly contributes to the head's longevity and consistency, making it a reliable choice for drummers who play hard or frequently, ensuring consistent performance over time.

• Versatile Application: Its balanced and durable characteristics make it exceptionally versatile for various musical styles, including rock, pop, fusion, and jazz, and any genre requiring an articulate, durable, and defined small tom sound.

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