Questions about DW
Where are DW instruments made?
DW drums are primarily manufactured in their Oxnard, California facility, with some component sourcing from overseas to ensure optimal materials.

DW originally bypassed traditional retail channels, allowing customers to order directly from the factory, fostering a close relationship and enabling extensive customization.
