Which DW drum kit parts do I need?

For any percussionist or drummer, drum kits and drum sets are vital equipment for practice or for concerts. Drum Workshop (or DW) provides good quality percussion equipment for all your drumming needs. However, depending on what you need for your kit, certain parts are better than others. So, what DW drum kit parts do you need?

Hardware

To begin with, you need hardware for any drum kit and DW would be a great place to go looking for hardware. Hardware includes things like DW pedals, cymbal stands and hi-hats and are a key ingredient to any DW drums. When looking around the DW drum, shop online or in person. It is always a good idea to check out which hardware they have in stock as they sell top quality hardware for individual drums, kits and cymbals.

Skins

Another essential part of any drum kit that is available from DW would be drum skins. When you want to buy drums, one of the first things you have to consider is the quality of the drum heads, as they affect the quality of the sound produced by your drums in a big way. DW offers a great range of skins from DW snare skins to bass drum skins and therefore are well worth a look.

Cymbals

Another vital part of any drum kit would be the cymbals you have on it. Although DW have a great range of drums for sale, there are a number of better manufacturers for cymbals and therefore it may be better to look elsewhere for good quality cymbals. For example, companies like Zildjian and Pearl offer great sounding cymbals. It is just a question of looking around for the best deal on good quality cymbals.

Sticks

Finally, a truly necessary aspect of playing the drums is having a set of drumsticks that you are comfortable with. Unfortunately, because DW don’t offer sticks in their range of top quality products, you cannot get your ideal drumsticks from them. Instead, it is best to shop around on the internet and in stores and search for the right deals for you. Make sure to consider the price, quality and size of the sticks before buying them.
