Drum Workshop, Inc. (DW) introducesthe Limited Edition DW MFG True-Cast Snare Drum built in collaboration with longtime DW artist, renowned drum educator, and session player Dave Elitch. These snare drums offer a unique and powerful voice that’s dynamic and distinct.
The 7 x 14” sand-cast, seamless bell bronze drum shell is machined with 45-degree bearing edges and a precision snare bed. The shell also features a concave inner wall, graduating from 5mm at the edges to 3mm in the middle, which enhances attack and focus.
This beefy drum delivers fat, low-end punch that does not choke out at any tuning while producing slightly darker tonality. The snare is fitted with True-Cast counter hoops, Mini Turret Lugs, Mini MAG throw-off, and True-Pitch® tension rods, all machined from 100% brass to exacting standards.
Assembled in DW’s legendary California Custom Shop, each drum is capped with a 20-strand True-Toneä snare wires and Remo® Ambassador single-ply snare heads branded with the DW MFG logo.
Only 100 of these handcrafted snare drums will be produced. Each will include a DW MFG flight case by Calzone and a True-Castä certificate of authenticity.
