General

The drum kits from DW Drums are some of the most recognisable kits on the market today, as many drummers will instantly notice the characteristic DW lugs from miles away. The brand spends a lot of time and effort to make sure that each shell produced in its Drum Workshop meets the highest quality standards. Aimed at professional drummers, the Performance Series includes a number of maximally reliable, great looking and even better sounding drum sets. This particular 3-piece shell set is especially suited for rock and fusion, but can of course be used for any other style as well.

The DW Drums Performance Pewter Sparkle 24 3-Piece Shell Set

As mentioned, this is a 3-piece shell set and as such, doesn't come with a snare drum, hardware or cymbals. What you will receive, however, is a 24 x 18-inch bass drum with a warm, deep foundation sound backed by powerful punch. This bass drum is closed at the top, which means that the included 12 x 9-inch tom doesn't make any contact with the bass drum so that both shells can optimally shape their sound. Since a tom holder does come included, the 12 x 9-inch tom can be suspended using a solid cymbal stand. To complete the set, DW Drums have added a 16 x 14-inch floor tom which, just like the other shells, packs a mostly warm and deep sound with the relatively low pitch typical of North American maple. Last but not least, this Performance Series shell set comes complete with Remo Ambassador drum heads.

Construction

The shells are made of eight plies of North American maple. If you take a look at the second image, you can tell DW Drums carefully took the direction of the grain into considering when stacking the different layers of wood. More specifically, this is called an HVX construction. Finished with chrome-plated hardware, each shell has rounded, 45-degree bearing edges for optimal contact with the drum head, while wide hoops ensure stable tuning, clear attack and easy-to-control sustain.
