DW Collector’s Series Purpleheart 7-Piece Lacquer Specialty Shell Pack Natural to Black Burst With Black Nickel Hardware

The DW Collectors Series Purpleheart 7-piece lacquer specialty shell pack features shells constructed from dense purpleheart hardwood for a sound unlike any other. Brought to you by the master craftsmen at DW Drums, this custom shell pack provides the performance and quality that serious drummers demand. The purpleheart wood shells deliver a tone with ample projection, sensitivity, and attack that traditional maple or birch shells simply can’t achieve.

Purpleheart Shells Provide a Distinctive Tone

Following in the footsteps of DW’s popular Pure Purpleheart snare drums, this shell pack utilizes purpleheart—an exotic hardwood known for its purple hue and density. The vertical grain of the wood, constructed using DW’s exclusive VLT shell technology, allows the shells to vibrate freely for a lowered fundamental pitch and resonance. The result is a tone with a strong attack and punch that cuts through any mix.

Premium DW Hardware and Components

As with all DW Collector’s Series drums, this shell pack features DW’s premium hardware and components, including their iconic True-Pitch rod system, MAG throw-off, and DW heads by Remo. The black, nickel hardware provides a sleek finish to complement the natural to black burst lacquer finish of the shells. This combination of high-quality materials and masterful construction produces a kit with impeccable sound and performance.

A Configuration for Any Musical Style

The DW Collectors Series Purpleheart 7-piece lacquer specialty shell pack includes a full range of shell sizes to suit any playing style, including a 6.5×14″ snare, 7×8″ and 8×10″ rack toms, 9×12″ and 12×14″ rack toms, 14×16″ and 18×23″ floor toms and an 18×23″ bass drum. Whether you play rock, jazz, funk or metal, this kit has you covered with its versatile configuration and broad tonal range.
