Evans TT12CHR Black Chrome 12" Tom Batter Drumhead: The Ultimate in Depth and Attack
The Evans TT12CHR Black Chrome drumhead is a high-performance, two-ply drumhead designed for drummers who demand an extremely aggressive attack, deep low-end tone, and maximum durability.1 Its distinctive black mirrored finish not only looks stunning but is engineered to deliver a sound that is powerful, focused, and capable of cutting through the loudest mixes.2 This head is an excellent choice for hard rock, metal, and heavy fusion drummers.3
Quality Construction and Powerful Sound
The core of the Evans Black Chrome's design is its specialized construction to manage overtones and maximize punch.4
Two-Ply Construction: It features two equal plies of black film, which makes the head incredibly durable, allowing it to withstand the hardest hitting.5 The two plies also contribute to a deep, controlled sound.6
Aggressive, Deep Tone: The thick, two-ply construction provides a focused attack and a massive low-end sound, effectively eliminating unwanted high-pitched overtones.7 This results in a punchy, controlled, and fat tom sound.
Striking Black Chrome Finish: The mirrored black surface is not just for looks; it contributes to the dry, controlled tone and is one of the most durable finishes Evans offers.8
Convenient and Practical Features
The Evans TT12CHR is engineered for maximum convenience and ease of tuning and seating on the drum shell.9
Batter Head: This head is designed for the batter side (top) of the drum, where it receives the stick impact.
Level 360 Technology: This feature ensures the head seats properly and evenly all the way around the shell's bearing edge.10 This provides maximum contact, which is crucial for easier tuning, a wider tonal range, and a more consistent sound.
High Durability: The two thick plies offer exceptional resistance to wear and tear, making it a cost-effective choice for drummers who play heavily.
The Evans TT12CHR Black Chrome is the perfect head for drummers looking for a modern, aggressive, and visually bold sound with the durability to match.
