EvansEC2S Frosted Drum Head 6 in.
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 6-inch frosted Evans EC2S head, sized for a small rack tom or an add-on drum. Replacement part, not an upgrade you shop around for.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn head on a 6-inch rack tom
- Kits with small add-on toms in a stacked setup
- Matching frosted heads across a full tom set
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone whose tom is a different diameter, even by an inch
- Snare batter duty, where a dedicated snare head fits better
- Players chasing maximum ring and long sustain
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Frosted surface
Slightly textured rather than glass clear, which takes a little top end off the attack.
Detail 03
Tom head
Built for tom tuning ranges, so it seats and holds pitch on a rack or add-on tom.
Detail 04
EC2S series
The controlled family. Expect a focused note with less overtone ring than a plain single head.
Detail 05
Small diameter
A 6-inch tom is high and short by nature. The head reinforces that, it will not add depth.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Batter head only. The resonant head underneath is sold separately.
- 02No tuning key included. You need one to seat it.
- 03Check the shell size before ordering. Small toms vary.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this the top or bottom head?
Use it as the batter, the head you strike. Resonant heads are thinner and sold separately, so do not buy this for the underside.
02Will it fit an 8-inch tom?
No. Drum heads are sized to the shell diameter with no give. A 6-inch head only fits a 6-inch drum.
03Why frosted instead of clear?
The frosted surface softens the initial attack slightly and gives a warmer note. Clear heads sound brighter and more cutting on the same drum.
04Do I need to tune it after fitting?
Yes. Seat the head, tighten the lugs in a star pattern, then play it in and retune. New heads stretch and drop pitch for the first few sessions.
