Great feel and groove start with a snare drum that commands attention, and the DW Performance Series Snare delivers the unmistakable response, projection, and musicality that have made Drum Workshop one of the most respected names in percussion. This USA-built snare brings many of the premium design elements found in DW's flagship Collector's Series into a streamlined package that's equally at home in the studio, on stage, or in the practice room. From articulate ghost notes to explosive rimshots, it's built to inspire confident performances across virtually every musical style.

At its core is a handcrafted 10-ply HVX North American maple shell, engineered with alternating horizontal, vertical, and diagonal grain orientation for exceptional balance, sensitivity, and punch. DW's proprietary pressure molding and Cool Tempering process enhances shell strength, resonance, and tuning stability, while John Good's signature 60-degree bearing edges maximize response and tonal clarity. Premium appointments including Triple-Flanged steel hoops, Quarter Turret lugs, True-Pitch tension rods, the MAG magnetic throw-off, and DW by Remo drumheads complete a professional-level instrument designed for years of dependable performance. Finished in an elegant Pewter Sparkle wrap with chrome hardware, this Performance Series snare is available at Haggerty's Music.
