DW Performance Series

The DW Performance Series brings the legendary DW quality to a more accessible price point. Handcrafted in the same California factory as the Collector's Series, these drums feature HVX maple shells that provide a punchy, low-end focused sound with plenty of resonance. While they lack the custom finish options of the flagship series, the Performance Series offers the same high-quality hardware and precision-cut bearing edges. It is the perfect choice for the drummer who wants professional-grade, USA-made drums without the custom-shop price tag.

It is widely considered the best value in the professional drum market.
