  • Great for little kick drums
We have the quest love ludwig kit for all our student performances. I was worried that the kick was going to be to quiet and started messing with different heads. This is a ideal head. It has just enough damping effect without compromising to much sound.

  • Great head for a small kick!
This head is great! I love the mead for a smaller kick (16 inch) because it has a little more boom with less dampening in the actual shell. Great product!

  • Perfection
Full, deep, punchy kick sound… this may very well be the perfect kick head.

  • As expected, great Evans head!
One of the only 16" batter bass heads around worth buying IMO...i love Evans EMADS and glad they make one in 16" for my Sonor jungle kit

  • Don't be fooled by product picture
Very misleading page! Shows full bass drum with Foot Striker, and description talks about the whole drum, but they are only selling the head, not the whole drum!

  • Sounds like a floor tom
I give it 2 stars just because I appreciate having options for a 16" bass drum head and I do like the EMAD on my 22" DW bass drum. Unfortunately, a 16" (at least mine, a Sonor Safari) does not have enough beef behind it with this head to make it sound like a real bass drum. Sounds like a floor tom. I use the Aquarian SuperKick 2 for the 16" bass and it sounds HUGE. I was using an Aquarian ported regulator reso head when I put on the EMAD and even that couldn't take out the floor tom sound. Also, mine came damaged (the muffle ring was all messed up). Stick with SuperKick 2 for a drum that small. I believe Evans also makes an EMAD2 which is a double ply. That might be a good option too. ... show more
