Warmth and Precision with Calfskin-Inspired Performance
Crafted from a single ply of 14-mil film, the EVANS Strata 1400 Concert Bass Head combines durability with the tonal warmth of natural skin. Its proprietary coating mimics the texture and responsiveness of calfskin, allowing for enhanced control, especially in delicate passages. The thicker film provides excellent low-end response and a defined, focused tone that projects well in acoustic spaces.
The Strata surface also helps dampen unwanted overtones without sacrificing musicality—giving you a balanced, full sound right out of the box, with no additional muffling required.
