This is the 7-inch ARF7GM sound-off practice pad made by EVANS. As the pictures show, the striking surface is clean, but the sponge on the back is slightly chipped. There is no problem with the sound-dampening effect or pad practice. I have retired from drumming. I am also selling other drum/percussion-related items. Bulk purchases are also possible. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ EVANS Evans Evance
