Derek Roddy - DW Performance Series

Derek Roddy (Serpents Rise / Traumedy / Clinician) plays the all-new DW Performance Series drums for the first time. Later in the video, he shares is blast beat mastery with Thomas Pridgen and Curt "Kirkee B" Bisquera.

Please note, this is NOT Derek's kit and it does not reflect his other endorsements. Derek proudly plays and endorses Meinl cymbals, Vater drumsticks, and Axis pedals.

This kit is shown in Cherry Stain. For more info on DW Performance Series drums, visit: http://www.dwdrums.com/drums/performance

The drums sizes in this video are:
8x10" Tom-Tom (8-ply HVX)
9x12" (8-ply HVX)
14x16" (8-ply HVX)
5.5x14" SNARE (10-ply HVX)
18x22" Bass Drum (8-ply HVX)

This is a DW drumset in every way. No detail has been overlooked, no corners have been cut. Its look and sound are decidedly DW. Custom-inspired, with a new Quarter Turret lug, low mass die-cast claw hook, new badge, logo head and hand-sprayed Specialty Lacquer finishes, it's designed to get noticed and most importantly, Performance sounds like what you'd expect from DW. Easy to tune, superior sounding HVX shells, along with DW heads by Remo USA, STM™ (Suspension Tom Mounts), True Pitch™ Tuning and DW 45 degree back-cut bearing edges, all make these drums sing.

Derek is a great player but he cant groove for shit

[Villex93]

@DrumWorkshopInc Thanks, I have seen them many times and they sound amazing.

Fun! It's great to watch legends struggle with a concept. It reminds you that they're just human, after all. I thought the floor tom sounded flat and lifeless...drums sound nice, otherwise.

Well, he almost made it 2:00 without playing a blast beat
