@MyFretsonfire You can special this exact kit from any of our authorized DW drums dealers. We make this kit for Derek but any of our customers can have the exact same specs if they like. :)
@SynsterGatesA7X Sure! The last kit he got from us was in 2008 and it was Solid White Finish Ply with Black Chrome Hardware in the sizes 7x8, 8x10, 9x12, 12x14, 14x16, and 2 18x22 and a 5x14 Maple snare.
@SynsterGatesA7X We do not do any pricing direct from our factory here unfortunately. :( Please contact your local authorized DW drums dealer for pricing and ordering info. Please check out the link below for the closest dealer to you. Thanks!
@DrumWorkshopInc Oh alright. Last question, I promise. Instead of the Solid White. Is it possible for you guys to make the set with the snake skin wrap the Rev had?
@burns01 He does get paid for session work and live gigs. We provide him with the drums he needs at no charge. He actually is into breeding rare snakes also. :)
Love the kicks, love the snares, can't live with the toms. I can never hear any of the resonance in the toms. But I guess for metal, that sound will really work.
@locoflaw No it is not... Metal has a melody to it, it has a singer who you can understand where he doesn't sound like a cookie monster. The drums are not fucking blast beats the whole fucking song either.
@joeldavidhardy We are flattered that you have chosen DW as your preferred drums and your endorsement.
We have a formal application process that everyone must go through. You can download the application and read more about it here:
://bit(dot)ly/endorseDW
Your odds of getting an endorsement deal are greater if you already have other endorsements (cymbals, sticks, heads, etc...), a recording contract, and a touring schedule.
@DrumWorkshopInc - I'm not at that level to be a drum endorser. But if I were, I'd be proud to endorse PDP. I know the product, having used it for years. I am passionate about the product. And after 10 years of playing the drums, pedals, and hardware, I won't play another brand.
But you see, I'm just some random guy. I've never had the money to record a studio record or finance a tour. Which is why I wouldn't make a good artist. But I am proud to play these kits.
@DrummerEvansAki Ah Evans we love you either way! We have talked to you on our Face-Book page also and we are so appreciative of your never ending supply of PMA(positive mental attitude) towards life and our gear. Talk to you soon buddy!

@DrumWorkshopInc I didnt even know you could apply for a endorsement, Ive always dreamed of having one with DW but that may be a few years before i could at the least qualify. unless you guys are willing to give one to a 17year old with a small amount of gospel gigs under his belt no influence whatsoever in the music scene and little chance at becoming a famous drummer. LOL anything can happen though.lol
@DrumWorkshopInc How do i apply i went to your website and i didnt see where i could. that link you left on your other comment doesnt work or something.
@gowfan2 Yes you can! When you start the process on the Kitbuilder there will be a cymbal set but you can delete this cymbal set up later after you have configured your drum and hardware set up.
@therealvoltage You could special this kit or any DW from any of our authorized DW dealers! Please refer the link below for the closest DW dealer to you.
@DrumWorkshopInc That is very true, have them. Best drums I have ever had. For the price I got an amazing kit, with a pearl master series sound, and they look beautiful. I'm not even endorsed or anything xD!
@BraXinga maybe you're trolling, but i think your opinion is completely unfounded. do you really mean to tell me this man, a professional drummer, sounds like shit? roddy isn't good because he's a professional drummer, he's a professional drummer because he's good. this is a craft he has poured his life into. saying that he sounds like 'shit' is a little harsh.
btw - i'm not an extreme fan of metal drumming, nor do i even know what group roddy plays in. i'm just a fan of being reasonable
i dont like the way DW bass drums sound, but when he goes through toms and snare drum i kinda get an air rush into my head ^_^ they are so bright, natural and cutting through.
@allmetaliswelcome Thanks for inquiring. We do not do any pricing or sales for DW drums direct from our factory here. Best call is too figure which finish type you want exactly and check with your local DW drums dealer for pricing and ordering information.
@DrumWorkshopInc My equipment is too bad for a video. Im talking a crappy Chinese made Gammon set with all ZBTs and a broken Gibralter double bass pedal. I bet the pedal was once really nice though. I cant afford the Performance Series, especially in a recession. The Performance Series does look really nice though. performance and DW go together well.
@alexed18 We have had a lot of great feedback with the X7. You get all the sizes you could ever need with some sweet finishes. Maple shells. Good to go. Hear one with our artist Gerald Heyward on the video link below.
love derrek! owned a collector series kit for past year and half and i gota say by far the best kit ive ever played on attention to detail and ease of setting equipment up is unparralelled.
If I was a little older and had a good paying job, I would definately invest into a DW over a Pearl or Ludwig. DW drums are probably the best in the world.
@DrumWorkshopInc Well I stand corrected on that aspect of it, just my opinion is all :) I do like DW though, I use 9000 series stands. Built like tanks.
@DrumWorkshopInc lucky i would like to be him cause your guys make some of the most best hardware and drum i have a 9000 on my kit and fell in love with and i also love the dw thrones dw forever
@DrumWorkshopInc I actually respect that you guys are that honest. Although DW sound good, they don't sound any better than Sonor or Premier or whathaveyou. Just they have that woody, bright , naturalistic tone that session players seem to like. My own view is that there's Yamaha and then there's every other drum. But then again, it's personal preference really.
@Cretinhopping Not true! Go to Derek's site and he clearly states that Sonor has for too many issues with support etc. and while they make a fine product, DW is at the forefront of drumming and drum making. I saved for a LONG time to buy mine and would kill to be on their roster with the pros!
@XxStrongDrums1996xX I never said I considered myself a fan, I gave an opinion. If you don't like my opinion you don't have to agree with it, but don't make yourself into a hypocrite by saying I sound disrespectful then calling me names. And if you weren't such a (I assume) lazy person you'd see my post just a bit up the page saying I USE DW HARDWARE.
Im debating between a Reference or a DW Collectors. Only reason I'm leaning toward Reference is because of the different woods offering different tonal qualities. Its too bad DW doesnt offer a shell with different plies. Birch/Maple or Maple/Mahogany. Because then I would say goodbye to my Reference idea
@tayl0424 Personally I'd go for the Reference, the only problem is the limited finishes. With DW you can get some crazy finishes. But if you want piece of equipment with very solid hardware and a great sound for just about any type of music (even metal) I'd go for the Pearls..
Love DW snares. I own a 5x13 Bronze, 6.5x14 Edge, 5x12 satin, and a 5.4x14 collector's from 1992. BUT I really do miss their early/mid 90's thicker shells and re-rings on toms. And I'll never understand those single ply coated/clear Remo heads they throw on there. Just sound too boxy and never do those drums justice IMO. Throw some smooth white or renaissance emperors or EC2's and they start to sound just purely magical..
@DrumWorkshopInc Also you guys mind telling me the difference between an pdp m5 and fs, i asked about a pdp about 2 months ago and bought the fs. i love the sound of the fs but i heard the m5 and they sound alike. I thing the m5 was also a bit more expensive
@vorkap i totally agree with you in huge multiples...the three u mention would be the ones i would mention as well...why he has a dw endorsement is beyond me...bad move dw.
crap. what is it with everyone thinking good drummings about thundering double pass pedals and as many mindless smacks into a stupid amount of crash cymbals as possible? its shit drumming and soulless.
@MrThreshold2009 To you maybe, but to others it doesn't seem that way. And, to come right out and call something "shit drumming and soulless" simply because you don't like it is extremely arrogant.
Sure Derek Roddy is more known for his extreme metal playing from bands such as HateEternal, but he is also a really talented Jazz Fusion player.
besides the obvious technical speed skills, one of the most overrated metal drummers along with portnoy.. in comparison to the likes of carey, hoglan or haake
If I want a DW Collector's Series drum set with an exotic finish like an Aztec Gold to Black Fade over Ivory Ebony, do I just tell my local Guitar center I want that color exactly and then DW does it?
@HarnessDavid You got it! You have half the battle of your custom drum order taken care of. Just specify the exact finish type and sizes you want to your authorized DW drums dealer you are go to go!
I believe instruments should look as good as they sound. Unless, your just a beginner. I know some people are like I dont give a fuck it sounds good But I'd say, if you know what your doing, and you've already spend enough time infront of a shit set.. why not get something nice? Make it look like you. I feel when I customize my stuff, they have my appearance, my customization, my personality. I feel that much "closer" to my instrument and I think psychologically, that enables you to play better.
@burns01 Not a dumb question. :) The Super Solid snares only come in a 5.5 depth because their already very specific sound. We found this depth worked best for versatility and also justice to the theme of a solid shell.
We suggest you start with PDP when the time is right for you. Your welcome!
i play a pearl reference and i thought it was the most beautiful kit in the world
but Im actually sad to say (being pearl and all...) that this is simply as good as if not better than pearl (i never sad that before) but you wasted such a fantastic on a just about average drummer... :/
@WelcomeWakinyan Yes you can. Feel free to order the DW Remo factory heads here dwdrums(dot)com. Just click on the "Shop" button in the lower right hand corner. From there choose the DW option on the left then choose the category Drum heads. Thanks!
@smurfhunterguy It actually what we call a Rata tom. Close to an Octoban. It is 6 inches in diameter and 6 inches deep. You can order them up to 18 inches in depth. :)
Another quick question, I've always wanted to make a really memorable snare drum. Would it be possible for me to have you make me a snare where you do all the drilling and bearing edges first, send me the shell so I can have my friends draw all on it and then send it back to you for a clear coat and the hardware?
@smurfhunterguy That's an original idea. :) We can't do exactly that but we could make you a Satin Oil snare drum complete and then you could take the hardware off to do any drawing you want!
okay roddy now bring it back in my room.. NEXT TIME YOU ASK IF YOU WANNA LEND IT!!! >:[[

crap. what is it with everyone thinking good drummings about thundering double pass pedals and as many mindless smacks into a stupid amount of crash cymbals as possible? its shit drumming and soulless.
MrThreshold2009 2 months ago
@MrThreshold2009 To you maybe, but to others it doesn't seem that way. And, to come right out and call something "shit drumming and soulless" simply because you don't like it is extremely arrogant.
Sure Derek Roddy is more known for his extreme metal playing from bands such as HateEternal, but he is also a really talented Jazz Fusion player.

@zzzzzushi Yes! With the VLT and X style shells they are designed to have a natural low end note to them. No need to feel to have to tune lower. :)

If I want a DW Collector's Series drum set with an exotic finish like an Aztec Gold to Black Fade over Ivory Ebony, do I just tell my local Guitar center I want that color exactly and then DW does it?

I believe instruments should look as good as they sound. Unless, your just a beginner. I know some people are like I dont give a fuck it sounds good But I'd say, if you know what your doing, and you've already spend enough time infront of a shit set.. why not get something nice? Make it look like you. I feel when I customize my stuff, they have my appearance, my customization, my personality. I feel that much "closer" to my instrument and I think psychologically, that enables you to play better.

Might be a dumb question but why doesn't he play a 14x6 or 6.5 to have that power ?
Thanks for answering, I wish I had enough money to buy even one of your cheapest kits !
burns01 3 months ago
@burns01 Not a dumb question. :) The Super Solid snares only come in a 5.5 depth because their already very specific sound. We found this depth worked best for versatility and also justice to the theme of a solid shell.
We suggest you start with PDP when the time is right for you. Your welcome!

Next to the left bass drum underneath the hihat, what is the small drum hooked up to a pedal? Is it like a small timbale?

@smurfhunterguy It actually what we call a Rata tom. Close to an Octoban. It is 6 inches in diameter and 6 inches deep. You can order them up to 18 inches in depth. :)

@DrumWorkshopInc That's so cool!
Another quick question, I've always wanted to make a really memorable snare drum. Would it be possible for me to have you make me a snare where you do all the drilling and bearing edges first, send me the shell so I can have my friends draw all on it and then send it back to you for a clear coat and the hardware?
smurfhunterguy 4 months ago
@smurfhunterguy That's an original idea. :) We can't do exactly that but we could make you a Satin Oil snare drum complete and then you could take the hardware off to do any drawing you want!
