This DW Design floor tom offers a fantastic blend of quality and affordability. The maple shell sings with a warm, full tone, and the Cherry Stain looks gorgeous on stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
The HVLT construction is a step down from the 30-degree bearing edges found on Collector's Series, offering a more direct, powerful tone, but slightly less complexity.
The included Remo heads are decent for general use, but upgrading to coated heads will really enhance the tom’s warmth and reduce unwanted overtones.
The Cherry Stain is a beautiful finish, but it's a softer lacquer, so it’s best to be mindful of handling and storage to avoid scratches.
