The Evans 22″ Hydraulic Glass Bass Drum Head is designed to deliver deep, punchy low-end with vintage character and modern clarity. Constructed from two plies of 7mil clear film with a thin layer of oil between them, this head naturally controls sustain and overtones, providing a fat, focused tone that’s ideal for live performance or studio recording.
The “Glass” finish—Evans’ term for its clear surface—offers a more open attack compared to coated or suede models, while still preserving the short, dampened sound signature of the Hydraulic series. The result is a clean and powerful kick drum tone that blends seamlessly into rock, metal, funk, soul, and R&B mixes.
With built-in muffling, there’s no need for pillows, gels, or rings—making it a fast, reliable choice for players who want classic tone without the fuss.
