DW

Description

Some kits grab your attention before the first downbeat. The DW Design Series limited-edition 3-piece shell pack with pairs a Titanium Satin Matte Lacquer finish with a unique configuration that sets it apart. Crafted from 8-ply North American maple using DW’s HVLT (Horizontal-Vertical-Low Timbre) process, these shells deliver punch, warmth and sustain that drummers can lean on. The 22x16" bass drum, 12x8" rack tom and 16x14" floor tom combine focused low end with crisp attack. With chrome hardware, triple-flange hoops and DW’s signature mini-turret lugs, this shell pack balances tone, durability and unmistakable DW character.

Maple Shells Bring Depth and Projection

There’s a reason DW’s shell design has earned so much respect. By layering horizontal and vertical plies of North American maple, the HVLT process gives the drums a voice that’s both warm and commanding. The tone carries in a live room while still keeping detail and subtlety intact, so the kit feels right at home on stage or in the studio.

True-Pitch Tuning Adds Control

Drummers know how much the details matter. DW’s True-Pitch rods add extra threads, making fine adjustments easy and reliable. Once set, the kit holds pitch through long rehearsals and shows, letting you focus on the music instead of chasing your tuning.

Mounts and Hardware Keep Setup Smooth

Nothing kills the vibe like fussy hardware. DW’s STM (Suspension Tom Mounts) protect shell tone, while mini-turret lugs and triple-flange hoops keep things light and responsive. The result is a kit that’s quick to set up, steady under pressure, and always ready when you are.

Maple Shells and Satin Finish Balance Strength and Style

DW builds drums to last, and this shell pack is no exception. North American maple shells resist wear, while the Titanium Satin Matte Lacquer finish adds protection along with a bold, modern look. Chrome hardware holds strong through years of setups, striking the balance between durability and elegance that DW is known for.

Performance With the DW Design Series 3-Piece Limited Shell Pack

This kit reflects DW’s commitment to drummers who expect both sound and style. The HVLT shells, reliable hardware and thoughtful details come together in a pack that feels dependable night after night. With its distinctive finish and unmistakable DW voice, the Design Series 3-piece shell pack shows why the brand continues to inspire drummers everywhere.
