.
Drum Workshop, also known as DW or DW Drums, is an American drum and drum hardware manufacturing company based out of Oxnard, California

The high-end
Gretsch, DW and Ludwigs
are all made in the US, as are most Pork Pie kits and most of the ‘custom' manufacturers that use Keller shells.
Pork Pie kits are great, though
. Tim Alexander used them with Primus until '95, when he contracted with Tama–and a lot of folks feel his drumming sounds better on those early “Pork Pie” albums! Bill does great work.

Xiaoshan, China
