PDP by DW Encore 8-Piece Shell Pack With Two 22" Bass Drums - Black Onyx

Built for drummers who want the scale and impact of a double-bass setup, the Guitar Center Exclusive PDP by DW Encore 8-piece shell pack delivers a substantial configuration within reach of developing players. Its 6-ply poplar tom and bass drum shells, along with a 10-ply matching snare shell, produce a warm, powerful foundation suited to hard rock, metal and other styles that call for a commanding drum sound. The setup includes three rack toms, two floor toms, two 22" bass drums and a matching snare, providing a wide tonal range for fills, grooves and double-bass patterns. True-Pitch tension rods, telescoping bass drum spurs, triple-flange hoops and durable wrapped finishes round out a package built for practice, rehearsal and performance.

Eight-Piece Configuration Built for Powerful Playing

The Encore shell pack provides an expansive setup with 8x7", 10x8" and 12x9" rack toms, 14x12" and 16x14" floor toms, a 14x5.5" snare and two 22x18" bass drums. That range gives drummers multiple voices for building extended fills, while the dual-bass configuration supports dedicated double-bass patterns without relying on a double pedal. The combination is particularly well suited to aspiring hard rock and metal drummers who want the feel, visual presence and creative possibilities of a larger acoustic drum setup.

Poplar Shells Built for Warm, Powerful Tone

The Encore kit’s 6-ply poplar tom and bass drum shells provide a warm foundation with the low-end presence needed to support its large configuration, while the matching 10-ply snare adds a focused voice for backbeats and accents. True-Pitch tension rods provide precise adjustment when tuning the drums, while telescoping bass drum spurs help keep the two kicks securely positioned during playing. Triple-flange hoops and Encore lugs complete the hardware design, with chrome or black hardware specified by finish. Wrapped finishes add durability for regular practice, rehearsal and performance while giving the kit a distinctive stage look.

An Accessible Double-Bass Shell Pack

Two full-size bass drums provide a dedicated platform for practicing double-bass techniques, while the Encore's five toms offer plenty of range for expansive fills and creative kit arrangements. Non-branded drum heads give players a functional starting point, with the flexibility to personalize the kit over time. Combining warm 6-ply poplar tom and bass drum shells, a 10-ply matching snare, an extensive configuration and practical design details, the PDP by DW Encore 8-piece shell pack offers an accessible path to a full-size double-bass setup available exclusively at Guitar Center.
