DW Design Series 4-Piece Shell Pack With 22" Bass Drum - Satin Sage Metallic

Bring the rich, resonant sound of North American maple to drum setup with the Guitar Center Exclusive DW Design Series 4-piece shell pack. Built with 8-ply HVLT (Vertical Low Timbre) maple shells, this kit delivers a full-bodied tonal response with articulate attack, warm resonance and the versatility to handle everything from rock and funk to jazz and pop. Its configuration includes a 22x18" bass drum, 10x8" and 12x9" rack toms and a 16x14" floor tom, providing a balanced combination of low-end depth and responsive tom tones. Professional DW appointments, including True-Pitch tension rods, mini turret lugs and suspension mounting hardware, contribute to its performance and tuning flexibility. Available in two distinctive finishes—Satin Sage Metallic and Titanium Satin Lacquer—this exclusive Design Series shell pack pairs DW craftsmanship with a stage-ready aesthetic. North American Maple Shells for Rich, Resonant Tone The foundation of the Design Series is its 8-ply North American maple shells, constructed using DW's HVLT shell technology. This design emphasizes a lower fundamental pitch while preserving the clarity, warmth and projection that make maple a versatile choice for acoustic drums. The 22x18" bass drum provides a substantial low-end foundation, while the 10x8" and 12x9" rack toms offer articulate response and tonal definition. A 16x14" floor tom rounds out the configuration with deeper resonance and sustain. Together, these shell sizes provide a broad tuning range for drummers who need a kit capable of moving comfortably between musical styles and performance settings. DW Hardware for Precise Tuning and Shell Resonance DW equips the Design Series with hardware designed to support tuning precision and natural shell resonance. True-Pitch tension rods provide fine adjustment of drumhead tension, making it easier to dial in consistent pitches across the kit. The compact mini turret lugs maintain DW's recognizable hardware aesthetic while minimizing the amount of hardware attached to each shell. Suspension Tom Mounts (STM) help isolate the rack toms from mounting hardware, allowing them to vibrate more freely. The floor tom also features suspension legs that reduce unwanted damping. These appointments work together to preserve the shells' natural response while giving drummers practical control over tuning and sustain. Exclusive Finishes With Signature DW Design Series Style The Design Series combines professional drum construction with a distinctive visual presentation. Available exclusively at Guitar Center, the Satin Sage Metallic and Titanium Satin Lacquer finishes offer two different interpretations of the kit's contemporary styling. Satin Sage Metallic brings a muted green metallic appearance, while Titanium Satin Lacquer provides a sleek, understated alternative. Both complement the series' compact mini turret lugs and recognizable DW hardware. For drummers looking to expand their setup, a matching 14x6" snare drum is available separately. With its resonant maple shells, versatile four-piece configuration and exclusive finish options, the DW Design Series 4-piece shell pack offers a compelling combination of tone, craftsmanship and visual character.
