Sound Pure's Take
Check out this amazing-looking DW Collector's Exotic series 3-piece drum set! A gorgeous Royal Ebony veneer with natural gloss lacquer and chrome hardware, this exotic set will command attention on any stage or studio. DW pulled out all the stops with the VLT ply configuration, coupled with the maple tone wood, delivered a recipe for greatness. This set is a prime example of some of their many tone-enhancing innovations and options.
From DW Drums
DW's flagship line, the Collector’s Series, are the original US-made custom drums. For years, drum makers have preferred maple for its resonant tonal qualities.
This shell pack features rack toms with DW's Specialized Shell Configuration(SSC). It's the culmination of more than a decade of DW Custom Shop shell technology and represents the state-of-the-art in sonic customization. So what is SSC? Put simply, it's DW's recommended shell configuration that utilizes HVLT, VLT, X, and VLX shell technologies. Of course, drummers can custom order a custom DW kit anyway they want it, but we've simplified the process by optimizing a particular type of shell for each drum size.
It also features DW’s patented STM (suspension tom mount) system, which allows drums to vibrate independently, allowing maximum resonance while securely holding the drum in place. Because there are no washers or grommets inhibiting the lug rod receiver, choking is reduced and tuning is as easy as ever. To give drummers even more control over their sound, DW created its patented True-Pitch rod system. The rods feature 5mm threads rather than the 12/24 that’s standard on most other drums. To compare, there is 1 thread every 0.8mm on True-Pitch® rods (about 20% more threads), versus 1 thread every 1.05mm on most other drums. The result is a more exacting tuning process.
