Description

Evans Hydraulic Glass Tom Heads are designed to give drummers a fat, vintage tom sound with all the control and consistency of modern head construction. Built with two plies of 7mil clear film and a thin oil layer in between, these heads offer built-in damping that eliminates overtones and shortens sustain—delivering that iconic 1970s-style “thud” straight out of the box.

The “Glass” designation refers to Evans’ highly reflective clear finish, which allows for a brighter attack than coated versions while retaining a warm, punchy tone. The result is a head that’s both expressive and focused, ideal for funk, rock metal, and studio recording, where clean tom response is crucial.

Available in multiple sizes, these heads are perfect for individual tom replacements or full kit overhauls. Whether you’re after vintage vibe or modern reliability, the Hydraulic Glass heads deliver both.

Why Choose Evans Hydraulic Glass Tom Heads:

  • Classic, controlled tom tone with short decay

  • Clear finish for crisp, articulate attack

  • Great for both live use and recording

  • Reliable tuning and durability across playing styles

  • Easily fits into vintage, hybrid, or modern kit setups
