Hardware from the Pacific experts
PDP stands for “Pacific Drums and Percussion” and is a brand founded by renowned manufacturer DW, which sells drums and hardware at affordable prices. With the 700 series, PDP offers hardware that is particularly lightweight for a compact and portable design, with all products boasting design elements and technical features that can also be found in DW’s professional hardware series. The 700 series also includes cymbal stands, hi-hat stands, snare drum stands, single and double bass drum pedals, and even fully equipped hardware sets, thus providing all the essential drum hardware components.

The perfect basis
The DW PDP 700 Hardware Set consists of five high-quality components that are particularly easy to transport on account of their low weight. All of the stands are equipped with robust double-braced legs and anti-slip rubber feet, and also feature a Glide Tilter mechanism for stepless tilting. The set also comes with a single pedal for the bass drum, which provides the winning formula thanks to its excellent performance characteristics, and features a footboard complete with rounded heel piece in a smooth finish. A steel base plate with retractable spikes is also included, as well as a conventional spring suspension arrangement for easy adjustability of the beater angle, footboard angle, and spring tension.

Designed in California
All products from the PDP 700 series have been designed by the renowned manufacturer DW (Drum Workshop) in California. In terms of design and technical features, they reflect the professional hardware series available from DW, but carry a budget-friendly price tag, which primarily aims them at ambitious new drummers, music schools, and music teachers. However, the high-quality workmanship involved in creating these products also makes them an excellent choice for advanced drummers, particularly where lightweight hardware is preferred for ease of transport to smaller local venues.

About PDP
PDP is the acronym for ‘Pacific Drums and Percussion’ and is the name of a California-based drum and hardware manufacturer. The company was founded in 1999 by DW Drums to offer affordable instruments in addition to its own exclusive brand - and correspondingly expensive - DW drums. To reduce costs, the production of the drum shells was outsourced first to Mexico and later to China. PDP has always used many original parts from the DW series. The Concept Series, with shells made of 100% Maple, is currently the flagship in the portfolio. The Black Wax snare drums, available in six different sizes, are also part of the product range.
The perfect choice for compact sets
The affordability of the DW PDP 700 Hardware Set and its lightweight components makes it the ideal choice for more minimalist drum setups in rehearsal rooms and classrooms, but also suitable for advanced applications involving compact arrangements, such as bop sets. A high level of portability makes the DW PDP 700 Hardware Set an excellent all-rounder for regional performances in small bars or cafes, for example. Thanks to the solid workmanship involved in their production and a broad array of setting options, both the stands and the single pedal for the bass drum offer excellent performance characteristics and a comfortable playing feel.
