My web site is going to talk a little about the type of drums that I use; DW Drums. DW Drums started in 1972 in Oxnard, California by Don Lombardi and John Good. DW's first product was an adjustable seat for the drums. Then there came the nylon strap bass pedal and hi-hat stand before their first drumset was made. DW's first endorser was Tommy Lee, which helped them become a world-renowned drum company. Since then, DW has colse to 80 drum endorsers and that's only from the DW drums. They have also created two other drum companies: Pacific Drum Company and Gon Bops.
