Evans Calftone Snare Drum Heads
The Evans Calftone Snare Drum head follows on from something Remo have been doing for years with their Fiberskyn heads. Here we have another throw at the synthetic alternative to Calfskin drum heads by Remo’s closest rival Evans – and it’s a pretty damn fine product let us tell you.
Evans Calftone Snare Drum heads consist of the unique ‘Calftone’ surface bonded to a 7 mil single-ply Mylar skin, thinner than a Calftone Bass Drum skin and optimised for smaller drum shells and higher tunings.
As with all other Evans Rack Tom and Snare Drum heads, Calftone heads come with Level 360 Technology™ for easy tuning and a consistent fit. Evans Calftone are ideal for bringing out the best sounds in vintage drums and deliver a great tonal response.

Here’s a great video from Rob Brown’s YouTube channel all about the Calftone…
Perhaps, best of all, they look stunning, evoking a classic appearance from the days when poor little baby cows gave up their skins so we could play drums! Thankfully, no baby cows lost their hides to provide you with a vintage tone so you can enjoy a guilt-free vintage sound!
