After two years of relentless development led by John Good, DW SonicPly combines aircraft-grade aluminum with an American Maple shell for enhanced attack and articulation, offering warm tonality and focused sustain.
Hybrid Metal / Maple Shells
10" - 24" SonicPly drums feature a 9-Ply 333™ Maple shell with a 1/36" Aluminum sheet replacing the middle ply. SonicPly snare drums feature a 12-Ply Maple shell with two 1/36" Aluminum Sheets sandwiching the middle plies.
Bearing Edge
These Collector’s Series shells are precision-cut with 45-degree (toms) and 60-degree (bass and snare) bearing edges. These edges provide tonality and sustain from your toms, and depth and punch from your bass and snare.
Compared to the neutral tone of a Pure Maple 333 drum shell, the SonicPly shell produces a higher pitch, brighter tone, and shorter sustain. Combining the warm resonance of Maple with the dry attack of Aluminum results in a bright and resonant but controlled and consistent drum sound perfect for touring and studio drummers alike.
This listing is for the drums only.Hardware is not included in this kit. We received these drums new from DW at the Music City Drum Show, so the heads may show signs of play since it was set up at the show. If you have any additional questions, please contact us directly.
