NAMM 2012: DW Drums certainly had a lot to show off this year, so much so that they commandeered a super-sized space to cram all their goodies into.
Between an upgrade to the popular 5000 Series bass pedal to a 40th anniversary, limited-edition kit (with Exotic Tamo Ash veneer handpicked by DW Executive Vice President and Drum Designer, John Good) to new finishes for the Performance Series sets to a very snazzy adjustable hi-hat clutch, one could easily spend hours taking everything in.
Luckily, we had a guided tour from none other than Good himself. Sit back and have a look.
