DW

collapse expand iconDescription

No detail has been overlooked, no corners have been cut. Its look and sound are decidedly DW. This custom-inspired DW Performance Series 4-piece drum kit comes with a new Quarter Turret lug, low-mass die-cast claw hook, new badge, logo head and your choice of four hand-sprayed Specialty Lacquer or four ultradurable FinishPly finishes. It's designed to get noticed and most importantly, this Performance kit sounds like what you'd expect from DW. Easy to tune, superior-sounding HVX shells, along with DW heads by Remo USA, STM (Suspension Tom Mounts), True Pitch Tuning and 45º back-cut bearing edges, all make these drums sing.

The HVX shells used on the Performance Series combine advanced grain orientation technology and hand-selected North American hard rock maple to deliver a low, punchy fundamental, with ample resonance and projection that's perfectly suited for live applications. Performance Series 8" toms feature a 7-ply HVX construction, while the snares feature 10-ply HVX, and the 10"–16", along with all bass drums, feature 8-ply HVX construction.

Cymbals and hardware not included.
