    I play my '65 Ludwigs outfitted with Evans Calftone heads in a honky tonk band. The sound exceeds my expectations! They deliver a warm, round tone that fits right in with the sound we want to achieve. And they look incredibly cool on a vintage kit! #sweepstakes

    Great warm tone, I tune it medium or higher for jazz but it can be used tuned lower for other styles,

  • Great looks and controlled sustain...

    Using these for reso heads on my bass drums and am very happy with them...a bit more controlled sustain than a typical one-ply head and great looks...works for me! No trouble cutting the port using a port-hole cutter, so no worries there.
