DW Collector's Pure Oak
This month our drum team welcomed back a returning hero in the shape of the Yamaha Recording Custom, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Here we take a look back at all of the gear that originally appeared on the site in January. We start with the DW Collector's Pure Oak kit.
MusicRadar's Verdict:
”Like the majority of DW gear, we find the Pure Oak difficult to fault. This is a heavy kit in more ways than one. It has volume in abundance but also shows a wide dynamic range.”
