DW Piccolo Tom 08"x2,5"

I decided to add this tom at Christmas to my ever increasing hybrid kit. I'm so glad I did.
I 'play for fun' so this wasn't ever going to be used as a gigging instrument.
Despite great attempts by the postal service to damage my order in transit, it arrived safely in time for Christmas. I was surprised by the weight of such a small item - extremely sturdy. It was very easy to put together - a couple of screws and a minute's work left it ready to be attached to the rack.
As soon as I struck it for the first time I knew it was good decision. A very sharp tone fitting in perfectly (tonally) between my other standard 8" toms and a pair of bongos (used as toms). I now have an 8 'tom' range on my kit.
I have spent a bit of time on the kit since and the tom has been through a few sessions. The head seems very durable and has reacted very well to any punishment dealt out by me so far.
It's my first DW item but the quality and finish on this one would certainly cause me to look closer at other DW accessories and drums - a very solid, great looking and reactive piece of kit with a great sound thrown in.
Buy it - you won't be disappointed.
