For drummers who demand professional tone and craftsmanship without the full custom pricing, this DW Performance Series 6.5x14 snare drum delivers unmistakable DW quality — available now at Haggerty’s Music. Built in DW’s California Custom Shop, this snare carries the DNA of their flagship lines, offering a refined voice that fits seamlessly into any musical setting.

At its core is a 10-ply North American Hard Rock Maple shell, the same premium wood used in DW’s top-tier custom drums. The HVX shell construction enhances projection and tonal balance, delivering a warm, punchy fundamental with plenty of resonance and articulation. The lacquered interior adds extra brightness and attack, making this snare equally at home in the studio or on stage. Wrapped in a stunning Gold Sparkle finish, it not only sounds incredible but stands out visually behind any kit.

Equipped with DW’s precision hardware — including the MAG throw-off, True-Pitch tuning rods, and newly designed quarter turret lugs — this snare is built for reliability, easy tuning, and consistent performance. From crisp ghost notes to full-bodied backbeats, it responds with clarity and power, giving drummers the dynamic range they need for any genre.
