Mini-Pro

Just as the name suggests, Mini-Pro is a professional DW kit in every way. Its scaled-down all-maple 7-ply shells come complete with miniature retro-style 6000 Series hardware and DWSM771 “banana” tom mount. The kit includes a 14x16” bass drum, a 6x10” rack tom, a 9x13” floor tom with legs, and a matching 5x12” wood snare. The hardware is specially designed for use with the Mini-Pro and includes a DWSM770 retro cymbal holder, hi-hat stand, snare stand and extra-low throne. Mini-Pro may be compact, but it packs big sound and performance into a small package.

Available in Blue Glass, Gold Glass (above) and Ruby Glass

Cocktail Kit

The new Collector’s Series® cocktail kit combines many of DW’s patented innovations into one unique, travel-friendly set. From its distinct “woofer-tom” to its new Sidekick offset pedal design, no other cocktail kit offers such full, rich tom and bass drum tones. With the use of multiple DogBone™ clamps the kit can be easily transformed into almost any configuration imaginable. Best of all, the kit can be ordered in any of DW’s extensive variety of finishes, drum hardware colors, shell configurations and sizes to create the most eye-catching and custom cocktail set-up available today.

Ballad Snare

The Collector's Series® Ballad Snare is a 10x16" snare drum on legs. As the name suggests, the Ballad Snare provides plenty of low-end punch for heavy backbeat applications. Complete with custom snare beds, snare wires and Delta throw-off, it can be ordered in any Collector's Series® finish combination.

Woofer

Created to act as a sub-woofer for the drumset, this specialty drum is designed to utilize the sympathetic frequencies from the bass drum to further enhance the roundness and low-end punch most drummers seek. The 8”-deep drum comes in 18” to 28” diameters and does not include a reinforcement hoop. A May-ATM25BD is factory installed (internal miking for the bass drum is also recommended). TB12 tom brackets can also be factory installed on the bass drum and woofer for sturdy set-up. For temporary use, a cradle is also available.

Edge Snare

Combining the high-end crack of a brass drum and the warmth of wood, the Edge was designed to give drummers the most versatile snare sound for both stage and studio. Available in a wide selection of depths and diameters, the Edge’s solid brass rings are carefully press fit onto either side of a wood center that is also available in most of DW’s wood shell and finish options. It’s a patented sound that the world’s top drummers have come to cherish.

Gong Drum

Developed in conjunction with DW Drum artist Marco Minnemann, DW’s gong bass drum incorporates several design innovations and mounting options to better meet the needs of today’s progressive players. Featuring a 21” or 23” 10-ply undersized all-maple shell for increased projection, the gong bass drum is available in any of DW’s finish and drum hardware choices. The gong bass drum also comes equipped with two TB12 brackets that can be used to mount the drum on tom stands or a rack. Floor-tom style legs and brackets are optional.

Piccolo Toms

Designed in conjunction with legendary drummer Terry Bozzio, piccolo toms feature a 2” deep chrome-plated steel shell that’s sure to surprise you with its full, rich tone. A versatile add-on, they are available in 8”,10” and 12” diameter and feature DW’s mini lugs and TB12 tom brackets for mounting on any DW tom stand, multi-clamp or DogBone™ attachment.

Short Stack

DW's Short Stack sizes are more shallow than traditional drum depths and pack a full round tone due to their shallow chamber that provides a greatly enhanced fundamental. They're perfect for around-town gigs or an alternate studio sound. Short Stacks feature 6 and 7-ply all-maple or birch shells without reinforcement hoops.
