Frequently Asked Questions
HVX reduces shell thickness slightly, resulting in a more resonant tone with quicker response and a more focused low-end compared to older DW shells.
The lacquered Ebony finish is durable, but it does show fingerprints easily and is more prone to minor cosmetic scratches than some other finishes – regular cleaning and careful handling are recommended.
DW's legs are well-engineered, providing excellent stability, but using a drum rug is always recommended, especially on less-than-ideal stage surfaces.
