Created by DW Drum Designer, John Good, to pay tribute to some of the most iconic drummers in the history of rock, DW Icon snare drums honor Neil Peart of Rush, Roger Taylor of Queen, and Nick Mason of Pink Floyd. The snare drum sizes and configurations are as played by each artist, with one dramatic new design element.

The finish is painstakingly laser-cut, then hand-inlayed from a variety of jaw-dropping exotic wood veneers. For Roger Taylor's drum, the Queen crest is realistically recreated in the wood and complemented by gold hardware to bring out the luster of the maple burl. The HVLT shell is crafted from 10 plies of American rock maple.

Each drum is protected with clear gloss lacquer and includes Collector's Series snare drum standard features such as our MAG throw-off system with 3P (3 position) butt-plate, True-Hoops, True-Tone snare wires, True-Pitch tuning and DW Heads by Remo USA. Also included are a premium DW snare bag, certificate of authenticity and a legend that describes the woods used for each specific drum.
