DW Ltd Edition 45th Anniversary Collector's Exotic Stradivarius 6-Pc Drum Set Shell Pack (22" Bass, 10/12/14/16" Toms, 14" Snare) (#8)

This exquisite DW drum set celebrates 45 years of cream-of-the-crop drum building. The shells are partially made from Norwegian Spruce harvested from the Panaveggio Forest in Northern Italy, the same forest and wood that Antonio Stradivarius used to create his million dollar violins hundreds of years ago.

Croatian Sycamore fills out a few of the plies to give strength and body to these drums, and quarter-cut plies act as the outer veneer for a gorgeously exotic grain pattern.

The artistic center band around each shell is made completely out of several exotic inlayed woods: Italian gray poplar, black-dyed pearwood, and blue sapphire-dyed koto. It features the DW logo, the roman numerals for "45", and violin F-holes.

All of the shells are beautifully finished in a Natural-to-Candy Black Burst lacquer, fitted with commemorative badges, and the highest-end hardware DW can provide: True-Hoops, True-Pitch 50 tension rods, STM mounts, and a MAG throw off with 3p butt plate on the snare.
