Drumset

Inspired by the legendary solid wood snare drums of the 20th century, each Classic Collection snare drum is crafted with a steam bent shell.  Hardware features include chrome plated solid brass tube lugs, vintage style strainer, and double flanged hoops.  Carefully crafted bearing edges give the classic vintage sound idiomatic to the era that these drums pay homage to.  

We've taken our custom drum-making know-how and created a line of drums designed to raise the bar yet again. Design Series™ is a DW kit through and through.   From a newly-designed mini Turret lug, to Remo USA®-made Suede® "outline" logo heads and a sleek silver and white badge, its looks are fresh, yet decidedly DW. Also included are pro features such as STM™ (Suspension Tom Mounts), True-Pitch® Tuning, MAG™ throw-off, low-mass die cast claw hooks, and more. Last but certainly not least, there's the sound. These are thicker North American Maple shells that pack a punch. Incorporating HVLT™ (Vertical Low Timbre shell with a horizontal outer ply), Design Series™ shells are full, resonant, and responsive.
