PDP CONCEPT MAPLE SERIES - TRANSPARENT WALNUT LACQUER
PLEASE NOTE: Pictures are for finish illustration purposes only. Please check specs tab for actual sizes of current stock or call for other configuration special orders. Cymbals NOT included.
Concept Series is a new line of PDP drums that are available in both all-maple or all-birch shells. All shells are 7-ply, except for the snare which is 10-ply. Through PDPs research with the DW Custom Shop, they have found some particular detail features that have a big effect on sound and quality. PDP believe that every drummer deserves these features, so they included DW-style STM mounting systems, True Pitch tuning, F.A.S.T. tom sizing, proportional counter hoop sizing*, and Remo drum heads. Snare drums come with the DW MAG throw-off and boutique-style copper wires. Bass drums come with die-cast claw hooks, and all drums feature the new retro-inspired dual-turret tube lug. Concept Maple drums are available in six specialty high-gloss finishes, all with chrome hardware, except for pearlescent black (black hardware). Concept Birch drums share all of the great features of Concept Maple, but with all-birch shells. They are available in two different configurations with a full range of add-on drums. Choose from two transparent lacquer burst options, both with chrome hardware.
A BRAND NEW CONCEPT IN DRUMS IS HERE
What if boutique-inspired drums loaded with pro-features were more affordable? Drummers can now get a wide variety of PDPs most popular Custom Shop sizes and colours without breaking the bank. PDP are proud to introduce a new concept, a completely re-imagined line of PDP drums designed for every drummer. Its called the Concept Series and it has a fresh new look and a sound that already has drummers talking. Choose from Concept Maple or Concept Birch shells in a myriad of todays most popular configurations. You can then add toms or bass drums to build custom-style kits to suit just about every musical style. In addition to all of the above, the Concept range of kits also offer high-end features like STM (Suspension Tom Mounts), True Pitch tension rods, MAG throw-off, die cast low-mass claw hooks, proportionate counter hoops and durable lacquer finishes. All of this combines to provide you with a kit that unquestionably lives up to its DW roots.
TRUE-PITCH PRECISION
To give drummers even more control over their sound, DW created its patented True-Pitch rod system. The rods feature 5mm threads rather than the 12/24 thats standard on most other drums. To compare, there is 1 thread every 0.8mm on our True-Pitch rods (about 20% more threads), versus 1 thread every 1.05mm on most other drums. The result is a more exacting tuning process. True-Pitch rods are only available in chrome and gold.
The PDP Concept Maple is available in a number of different configurations; from a 3pc to a 7pc kit. Contact us for more information on these configurations.
