What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


SSC shells for a unified sound





It’s a subtle detail, but the grain orientation of a drum significantly affects its fundamental pitch and overall tone. DW offers a variety of grain orientations, including VLT, HVLT, VLX, and X. Specialized Shell Configuration (SSC), on the other hand, means that DW selects the best type of shell construction for each drum size in the Collector’s Series shell pack. This not only keeps things simple for the user, but DW’s expertise ensures that the overall kit plays like one single harmonious instrument.





Unshakable DW quality provides the sound and performance serious drummers demand





For over 30 years, DW has made some of the most revered drums, pedals, stands, and other drum hardware out there. It all began with an innovative adjustable trap-case seat. Not only was this the first of DW's many breakthrough hardware designs, but it showed the world that the company really understands what drumming is all about. DW craftsmanship has more than set the bar for drum makers everywhere. Discover this commitment to quality for yourself in every drum and piece of DW hardware you buy.
