Add-on Tom from the DW Performance Series
The DW Performance Series makes it fast and affordable to flesh out a drum kit. This HVX maple tom is hand built in the same California plant, by the same skilled craftsmen, as DW’s inimitable Collector’s Series. Its shell hardware even offers many of the same tuning and performance advantages. Reduced Quarter Turret lugs and a range of specialty wrap, lacquer, and satin finishes give the Performance Series a heart and soul all its own.
DW Performance Series vs DW Collector’s Series
Unlike the 100% custom Collector’s Series, the DW Performance Series maximizes value by limiting configurable options. If you’re in the market for an authentic American DW playing experience at a real-world price, look no further than the Performance Series.
Specialty Performance finishes
The DW Performance Series is available in several finish options. Choose hand-applied lacquer and satin stains for a contemporary look; or for something more classic, choose DW’s durable FinishPly wraps, sourced from Delmar USA’s UV-treated specialty plastics.
Your dream kit awaits
As the nation’s largest DW Performance Series dealer, Sweetwater stocks nearly every shell size and finish available in the line. Your dream kit is just a click or call away.

HVX maple shell
The Performance Series begins with DW’s US-built, handcrafted HVX hard rock North American maple shells. The HVX grain orientation arranges wood plies horizontally, vertically, and diagonally for a deep and satisfying fundamental. Shells are baked in pressure molds (2600 PSI at 200°F) then immediately Cool Tempered to crystallize the glue, maximizing strength, roundness, and resonance. All Performance Series toms come crowned with pinpoint 45° back-cut bearing edges to enhance attack and increase head response.
Proprietary DW hardware
Unique to the Performance Series are DW’s reduced-size Quarter Turret lugs. These offer a decidedly sleeker, more modern appearance that many DW artists prefer. A closer look reveals much of the same hardware found throughout the DW’s Collector’s Series:
Graduated Counter Hoops
, weighted per shell size, unlock a dynamic balance of attack and sustain
Washer-less
STM Suspension Tom Mounts
float toms securely without choking tone
Fine-threaded
True-Pitch tension rods
maximize tuning accuracy
