Aquarian American Vintage Coated Drumhead for Older American-Made Drums

The Aquarian American Vintage is a coated single-ply drumhead designed for drummers who want classic feel, warm tone, and a better fit on many older American-made drums. Built with a slightly larger hoop diameter, this specialty drumhead line helps solve fit issues that can happen when vintage drums struggle with conventional modern heads. Available in thin and medium weights, the American Vintage Series features Aquarian’s unique vintage coating, which is slightly thicker than a standard coating. This gives the head the look, feel, and warm sound associated with calfskin-style drumheads, while offering the consistency of modern drumhead construction. The American Vintage line is also available in a 10mil clear vintage model for players who prefer a clear single-ply option with vintage-inspired response.
