DW (DRUM WORKSHOP) COLLECTORS BIRCH 5 PIECE DRUM KIT, CHERRY RED LACQUER, 1997 (PRE-LOVED)

Here we have a very very rare DW Collectors Series drum kit with pure heart wood birch shells. The kit was made as part of a very limited edition run of Birch kits in 1997. It comes with four rack toms and bass drum and features the mini turret lugs. This is an incredibly fine looking and sounding set in the timeless Cherry Red Lacquer finish, the condition is near on immaculate, the kit is completely original and even has the original DW by Remo Reso Tom heads still fitted.

Pure Birch Shell

Birch has long been a studio favourite. With a brighter fundamental and shorter resonant note, it's microphone-friendly and another time-tested artist favourite. Heartwood Birch is cut from the center of the log, providing a more "exotic-looking", highly figured appearance. 

The 100-percent birch shells are ply-configured with the 10 and 12 Toms being 6-ply; the 14, and 16 toms and 22 bass drum are 7-ply. With the Birch series there are no reinforcement hoops inside the drums. 

Bearing edges for these drums are just like those on the maple series: toms are 45 degree, while the bass drum is 60 degree. All cuts are from the outer edge of the shell tapered toward the inside of the drums.

Timbre Matched

All of these shells underwent the DW Timbre-Matching process. Utilizing a digital tuner as part of DW's patented pitch identification procedure, each of these shells is stamped on its sweet spot with the shell's relative note-value.
