    Bought my edge a few years ago, 5.5x14 ebony satin oil with chrome hardware, and it still makes me smile every time I pull it out. Thanks DW! Your attention to detail doesn't go unnoticed, and I'm reminded with each and every hit.
    You've gained a life time customer.

    There are plenty of companies making great marching drums we feel. We do appreciate your enthusiasm towards any type of fund raiser for your school!

    @FurlanPaolo You're so right! We are super stoked to have him. He is an encyclopedia of wood tone facts.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We will mainly focus on upgrading our drums and hardware and have a smaller focus on upgrading our printers on time. :)
    We very much look forward to making you a kit. We so appreciate your support!

    I just think it's awesome that DW is still commenting and replying to people on a video that's over 2 years old. Awesome to see that kind of dedication to their fans.

    As a Yamaha guy im very impressed with Johns mission, drive and transparency. Dw definitely has earned its place among the greatest instruments made. Enjoy your blessings Dw.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks! We are so lucky have John with his innovative drum ideas and also being a big star in front of the camera. :)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We hear your suggestion and appreciate it for sure. It is actually John Good who does not like working with acrylic shells. Although we believe you are right by saying that he could work some magic but he prefers wood working.

  • @dwdrums

    Glad you are liking them!

  • @dwdrums

    Thanks so much! We are loading up on edits right now and about to shut down for the holidays. We do promise to keep everyone in the loop about any new videos and of course anything on the Concrete snares.

  • @dwdrums

    Thanks so much! We do our best to get to everyone's post! Thanks so much for noticing!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We hear you for sure. We'll have a better presence down there a.s.a.p. Thanks so much for your interest in DW. If you figure out what size and finish type of snare you need you can always special order it at the Guitar Center. ;)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Glad you are liking it!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is a tough one. We think there are people more qualified for that but we appreciate your confidence in us. :)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes you can! We offer a solid center with Edge rings in 5x13, 5x14, 6x13, 6x14, 7x13 and 7x14 in all finish options.

  • @bajista420
    @bajista420 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm a bassist turned drummer and I own a few snares and recently bought an Edge, now I'm hooked! It's a beautiful sound coming out of it! Love it!!!!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @sunnylee84 Cool recording story feedback action. The Edge snare don't a have problem cutting through a mix that's for sure. Great to hear you had a good experience with the Edge. Thanks for watching!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We have assembled acrylic shells for artists in the past but we like making drums from wood. Thanks for your suggestion though. :)

  • @alexcabrera19657
    @alexcabrera19657 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just got my 13x6 blue glass Edge from Chuck Levins Washington Music Center. You guys at California really know what your doing. The craftmanship is amazing it looks better in real life then in pitures I am just mind blown at you guys. Thanks

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Glad you are liking the Edge snare! By our records indicate with the order number you provided, the Edge snare is actually a 6x14 and it should be in a Black Ice finish ply finish. Not too worry about the note being stamped on the inside of the shell...we have never stamped the inside of Edge snares with the note. We add the brass rings in the final assembly process so the note would change anyways. Hope this helps!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ah Brandon. He worked here for a while and gave many of our factory tours. As long as you have the badge in tact and the name of the store you got it from we should be able to track your Edge in our system. Have a good one!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We are glad you think that! Thanks!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    This will get you there for sure!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome! We are happy to hear you could be using it for so many different styles of music!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice size and finish choice on your Edge snare! Thanks so much! We love the guys at Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center. We are very happy to hear you had a good experience with them and we wish you many fun times on your Edge snare.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ah good questions. We did test both options at first for logistic and sound qualities and the wood center went best by far!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks so much for your feedback! The Edge does project quite a bit. A "louder" snare if you will. We are happy you have found a use for both of your snare drums. :)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    So glad you are liking it! Thanks for choosing DW!! What finish did you get???

  • @portnoyfan521
    @portnoyfan521 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a DW edge 14x 6, in Black Ice, perfect snare for any application, and I love how if you do use Moon Gels, if gives you the tighter dampened sound! DW's are fantastic!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well it sounds like you know how to keep time well! Awesome you are enjoying your Edge snare! Thanks for choosing DW!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Our pleasure!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks so much! Enjoy!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for asking! The Edge snare will project more then any of our other snare drums. We have heard of customers using the Edge snare for Jazz style application though. A thicker head will help with unwanted overtones.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @JeanDenisCote VLX Plus is our lowest noted shell type we offer. It is advised to use on bass drums only to add to the SSC technology. We have the outer most ply running horizontal to insure this low toned shell type. Hope that helps!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @juanbaratto thank you very much for this! It means a lot to us to hear how satisfied our customers are with our instruments. That's a great snare you have with a beautiful finish. I'm personally saving up for an edge. It really does have a uniquely perfect sound. And, it doubles as a free weight. So you can save money by cancelling your gym membership ;) Cheers!

  • @christianmaidana147

    @hendrixfan57 Thanks so much for your kind words and insight. JG has been doing this for a while with great passion and we are super lucky to have him!
    Yeah the 3 Speed Butt Plate does sound good in every position. The design is to get the tight, just right, and "throw off" sounds that every drummer can use. Some drummers have to switch back and forth during a song so we thought we would make it easier for those types of situations. Thanks again for your comments and questions!

    @DrumWorkshopInc I've been on damn near every drum manufacturer's channel that has an account on TH-cam--I have 2 say that u guys r AWESOME--1 of the VERY few companies that actually responds 2 the public & cares what we have 2 say--that speaks volumes --it just goes 2 show that u really care & r not just about making $--no wonder u guys r in such high regard

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great question! We have had zero issues with the Mag's strength on it's own for really tight settings. The Performance Series comes with just the Mag Throw without the 3P Butte plate and we have had many people use high tuning and tight snare wires with no problems. You are good to go!!

  • @jmr2master
    @jmr2master 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good to hear. I look forward to playing you all's great products. keep up the good work and I'll keep saving!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @josiahsuthan Well those are tough questions for sure. The Super Solid itself is a high pitched snare with a lot of crack. Combining the woods will give the snare some woods that are already dense but some more dense than others. Red Oak is more dense than cherry. The denser the wood the higher the pitch of the shell. Hope this helps!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Quezo7129 great to hear! Drums are tough instruments to tune, but slow and even tension is EVERYTHING. After it's fairly tight, you can rest your finger in the center of the head, and then lightly tap on the head next to each rod (right next to the rim) and "fine-tune" them to be as close as possible to each other. You'll find that if one rod sounds out of tune, the one directly across the drum will likely also be (so you kinda have to tune them in pairs).

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Quezo7129 here at the workshop, we do like overtones. The only way to really loose that, is to put some kind of damping on the head (moongel, tape, etc). If the overtones don't sound pretty like they are supposed to, you likely have uneven tension on your heads. If you haven't, try loosening them all the way, and then finger tighten the rods in the sequence John has on our Snare Batter Heads. Once finger tight, use the same sequence giving 2 turns at a time to each rod. Tuning vid coming soon

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    He has upgraded! We actually ran you comment past him for a laugh and he specifically wants you to know heis working with a HP P3015 now. :)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We hope someday you can have one!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Ashhunn I would suggest you loosen them all, and then tighten them up in the method I posted below. It may not save your problem, but this is usually due to uneven tension. Snare drums do vibrate more than any other drum on your kit, and vibration does tend to loosen screws. You might try our new True Hoops if the problem persists. How often does "all the time" mean?

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    That's a beauty! Nice choice! Enjoy!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cool! Thanks so much and enjoy!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ChrisBreuerrr Ok we got ya. :) The best call would be to go with the standard Edge maple but with a deeper shell. A 7x14 will do the trick for what you are looking for. This size will be dull bodied, able to tune medium to high and will have a shorter decay or sustain because of the shell being deep. The deeper the shell the shorter the sustain because the sound waves have to travel further. Hope this make sense to you!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are very welcome!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are very welcome!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    It is possible technically. We felt it was the best call to make the Super Solid technology to snare drums only. We like using different ply configurations for toms and bass drums.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @MeccavonPetra2 Thanks so much for your feedback! This is the sole reason we upload these videos so we can educate our customers and also get feedback of all types to further our gear. :)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SevernSickum The Mag throw will retro fit onto you 805 series snare. That Rev kit is a popular item these days!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We do with our Super Solids. We can use any combination of Maple, Walnut, Cherry and Red Oak.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @AAXDrums :) our pleasure

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TheMakyoura good question. I think you caught a flaw. The Edge and Top Edge should not be options in Step 4. Like you guessed, Step 4 (customize) is where you should choose the shell type (SSC, etc) in the middle of your Edge or Top Edge snare. I've alerted the proper personnel and it should be fixed shortly. True Hoops, MAG Throw & 3P Butt Plate come standard on all Collector's, Jazz, and Classics Series snare drums. You can order floor toms from any authorized DW Dealer (locator on r website)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @KaeviNzXD if you ordered it new, then yes. Congrats on the order! What size & finish did you get. What made you choose the Top Edge? I hope we get to see you play it ;)

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @neoraul20 Thanks for the suggestion! We are definitely working on it. Coming soon! We promise

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @systemfirez YES! Great question. The MAG/3P snare system will retro fit to all DW snare drums (including Edge).

  • @ohman74
    @ohman74 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    These really are sooooo great for playing live. Especially in a venue where the drums are un-mic'd...the projection is outstanding. I have a 13x6 Edge and it's a wonderful instrument. However I like my 13x6 Collectors Maple snare better for studio because they are warmer and easier for me to get a nice fat sound out of for recording.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ChrisBreuerrr Unfortunately you will not find any info on the snare you are inquiring about but we still do offer the Edge with a Solid center. What type of sound are you looking for exactly?

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks!

  • @jefflanham1080
    @jefflanham1080 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The concept I gave Chris Lombardi at the first ‘Skips Music Expo’ in Sacramento...I had gotten the original idea from a banjo player I worked with, who knew I was into drum innovations. In explaining it I told him “It would have the crack of a brass/steel snare with the warmth of a wood snare...”

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @joebruiser77 We have used our standard DW lugs in 2 rows for deep snares but obviosly our lugs are too big to go double row. We have found the single lug has gone better with functionality with our snare drums. We appreciate your feedback and suggestions for sure though. Thanks so much for watching!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sorry for the delay! You tension rods should be the same length!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TheJoSilberstein A Maple shell will bring you the most sustain for an Edge center. VLT will bring the sustain level down some because of the lower note. Have a good one!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @killjoyshidae1208 Technical questions.
    1.Very basically we found that brass was the best sounding material for the Edge snare.
    2.Chances are the Edge you saw was not actually a 6.5 depth but you never know. The wood portion of the Edge snares are cut from a barrel so we generally only have enough to cut for flat depths. Also the added 1/2" to the wood center wouldn't affect the sound enough.
    Hope this works for you!

  • @jmr2master
    @jmr2master 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good to hear! I was just imagining the paper jams lol! If you get a chance tell him I'm looking into getting a new kit and definitely an edge snare. You all make a great product so I don't mind spending a few bucks to help keep that going. Keep up the great work and the future upgrades lol!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @joebruiser77 We love the love for sure. :) We are not here to bad mouth other companies and we believe that other companies make good gear. We are only here to show our customers the inside of our operation through these videos.

    We would love to make you a 7x13 Edge snare!
    It does increase tension on the bottom head but not so much that you would have to tune accordingly per setting. Thanks for watching!

    @dwdrums  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Ashhunn hard to recommend a head other than the ones that come on it. But there are many out there to choose from, and I recommend you experiment. Let us know how it goes! Perhaps other users here can make some head suggestions?

  • @sink009
    @sink009 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Funny thing is, the Edge snare with only the top having metal reminds me a lot of marching snares of now a days, with the high tension top head on a metal edge and then the free floating bottom shell that has the resonant head directly on the wood.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok we got you! We'll see what we can do!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for having interest in the Walnut Maple Super Solid!! Unfortunately a dealer will most likely not have this snare in stock. The good news is that your local DW drums dealer can special order it for you. Any DW drums dealer can special order this snare for your. Please refer the link below for the closest DW drums dealer below. Your dealer can assist you with pricing and ordering info.

    I recently received my 7x14 maple/mahogany vlt edge snare. BEST SNARE EVER!!!!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sure! The Edge snare will really project naturally so you do not need to tune higher for that particular reason. Tune the Edge up! It will appreciate that. :) It also likes a mid range tuning.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The ProgGuy speaks again! We will keep that in mind!

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We do not sell DW drums on line direct unfortunately. Best call is too contact your local authorized DW drums dealer to check to see if they do have an Edge snare in stock or check into special ordering one. Your dealer can also assist you with any pricing questions also. Thanks for choosing DW!!

    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice you got the full tour! Louie is the man and so is John obviously. :) With the date and number on the inside of your Edge not being there it could have been wiped off by accident during its last cleaning before it left. Did you get all the drums with the Edge together? If so all the drums are on one order.

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    What exotic finish are you working with? What sizes do you have?

  • @dwdrums
    @dwdrums  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    We actually cross laminate our plies so most shells are being put together with 3 sets of plies. As far as adding one extra ply to your kit are you going for a higher end tone??

  • @TrondDrummer
    @TrondDrummer 12 ปีที่แล้ว
