The EVANS EQPAF1 (commonly known as the AF Patch) is an ultra-durable Aramid Fiber bass drum patch engineered for heavy hitters who refuse to compromise on tone or longevity. Designed to maximize beater definition while safeguarding your bass drum head from intense play styles, this patch ensures your kick cuts through the densest live or studio mixes without choking your sound.
Key Features
- Unsurpassed Aramid Fiber Durability: Crafted from high-strength aramid fiber—a material celebrated for its extreme heat and impact resistance—to offer unparalleled protection against heavy-footed pedal fatigue.
- Sharper, Pronounced Attack: Significantly sharpens and accentuates the click and punch of your beater, ensuring every kick drum passage remains highly defined and articulate.
- Patented Radial Slits: Formulated with four precision radial slits along its perimeter, allowing the patch to flex seamlessly with the head so the drum vibrates naturally without destroying sustain or low-end response.
- Preserves Natural Shell Voice: Specially engineered to turn up your attack and bolster longevity without choking your bass drum's organic volume or rich fundamental pitch.
- Single Pedal Design: Configured as a single patch optimized for single pedal setups (for double bass setups, simply add two patches to your cart).
- Made in the USA: Precision designed, engineered, and manufactured at D'Addario's state-of-the-art New York production facility under the strictest quality controls in the percussion industry.
