We have the 1st ever made "Limited" Quilted Walnut over SonicPly 4 pc Drum Set.
DW is proud to introduce the Collectors Series in Quilted Walnut over SonicPly. DW Drums welcomes Quilted Walnut to its expansive line of premium tone woods. Utilizing VLT (Vertical Low Timbre) shell technology, the drums deliver a full-bodied, musical tone with a decidedly shorter note. These shells are perfect for drummers seeking a unique sonic personality that's well-suited for live performance and recording. Each Quilted Walnut shell is handcrafted in the California Custom Shop, treated with hand-applied finishes, and fitted with DW's innovative drum hardware, including Suspended Tom Mounts (STM), True-Hoops, and more.
DW SonicPly combines aircraft-grade aluminum with an American Maple shell for enhanced attack and articulation, offering warm tonality and focused sustain and now with Walnut outer-ply it enhances the warmth even more.
SonicPly drums feature a 9-Ply 333 Maple shell with a 1/36" Aluminum sheet replacing the middle ply. SonicPly snare drums feature a 12-Ply Maple shell with two 1/36" Aluminum Sheets sandwiching the middle plies.
Bearing Edge
These Collector’s Series shells are precision-cut with 45-degree (toms) and 60-degree (bass and snare) bearing edges. These edges provide tonality and sustain from your toms, and depth and punch from your bass and snare.
Compared to the neutral tone of a Pure Maple 333 drum shell, the SonicPly shell produces a higher pitch, brighter tone, and shorter sustain. Combining the warm resonance of Maple with the dry attack of Aluminum results in a bright and resonant but controlled and consistent drum sound perfect for touring and studio drummers alike.
