DW Performance Series Mounted Tom - 9 x 12 inch - Cherry Stain Lacquer Reviews

12" Maple Tom with 2.3mm Triple-flanged Hoops - Cherry Stain Lacquer

The DW Performance Series makes it fast and affordable to flesh out a drum kit. This HVX maple tom is hand built in the same California plant, by the same skilled craftsmen, as DW's inimitable Collector's Series. Its shell hardware even offers many of the same tuning and performance advantages. Reduced Quarter Turret lugs and a range of specialty wrap, lacquer, and satin finishes give the Performance Series a heart and soul all its own.

Amazing

By Richard B. from Redlands, CA
Music Background: Me Drum

When I was looking for a drum kit during the spring of 2023, I looked into getting a custom Collectors Series, USA Custom, and Recording Custom kit, but I came to the conclusion that those kits were just too expensive. However, my sales Rep. Shawn steered me toward the DW Performance Series kits. The price raised my curiosity, but I still wasn't sure, given I assumed that the Performance Series was just the old PDP kits from the early 2000s.

After much consideration I decided to go to compare the Collectors and Performance series kits. The comparison wasn't even close! The Collectors just blew the Performance series out of the water. I would have walked out the door with the Collectors Series, but it had a rather big scratch in the bass drum and the salesmen was an A@# Hole, which of course, is par for the course with GC. So, I decided to buy a Yamaha Tour Custom from Sweet Water.

The Tour Custom served its purpose, but after playing it for over a year, I just felt like it wasn't that much better than the Stage Custom kit and was instantly struck with buyers remorse. However, after playing a DW Design series kit at a band rehearsal, my curiosity in the Performance series was rekindled. I was blown away by how much better the Design kit felt compared to my Tour Custom kit. Trust your Sweet Water Sales Reps., they know their stuff.

So I pulled the trigger and I went into the Demo Section and searched for three DW Performance Series drums to complete my typical Ringo style one-up and one-down kit. I went with the 18X22, 14X16, and 9X12 sizes, given those are the sizes Josh Freese tends to use and I tend to always ask myself, "What Would Josh Do," when it comes to my drumming. I bought the Ebony Stain Lacquer kick, and the Cherry Red Stain Lacquer rack and floor tom demo drums. I couldn't be happier with the sound of these drums and I continue to kick myself for questioning Shawn. These kits sound amazing and record like a dream! I have yet to replace the stock heads and they still F*@#! Seriously, buy one of these kits if you can afford them. They are legit! Too Legit! To...
