- We here at DW are pleased to announce that our long-time hardware & pedal artist, Gil Sharone, is now a Full-Line endorser of DW Drums. Gil gave us some much great playing footage, that we couldn't help but include all of it in this video. Gil also speaks about his "gravitation" towards DW Drums and highlight some of his favorite qualities about his favorite drum company.
Gil has worked on more live and studio projects than we can list, but for more details, you can visit his personal website:

You can also buy his new DVD "Wicked Beats" off his site.

All drum kit audio was recorded using only the Zoom H4n Handy Recorder place 3.5 feet high and 10 feet away directly in front of the bass drum. Not only is this mic/recorder super-convenient, but we also feel it give the most honest and natural sound...as if you were standing in the room.

Wow thanks so much! You have nice collection of Collector's series going for you! We are happy you are enjoying your DW's!
Aw...love for drums is the best kind of love!
Killer video, Gil is now one of my favorite drummers after discovering Stolen Babies! Seems like a really humble and down to earth guy too... I get a very good vibe from watching and hearing him play.
Very well said! Gil can play very well and versatile and is a great guy to boot!
He has a great style and is able to play many styles!
So much love flowing on this Gil video right now. We love it all back!
Gil makes those DWs roar and scream! Plus he is full of Wicked Beats! Much respect...thanks for the inspiration
Gil can play for sure! He knows many different styles! Greetings from California!
Thanks for watching! Gil is a great guy and very down to earth. Rips his drums and plays for fun as a career!
Great to hear! Glad you are liking Gil's style. We are lucky to have him. :)
We are happy you are looking!
Gil is soo underrated!!!!
Awesome to hear! Thanks! You are playing all kinds of styles between Jazz and Metal! Nice versatility!
You know it! Both guys are really nice, talented people.
he just got a new dw-kit, most of you would probably play something similiar. It feels to me like pure joy expressed on drums
That would be crazy! Both are DW guys and great guys to boot!
Thanks for your suggestion. We actually use Mahogany for our Classic's and Maple/Mahogany shells presently. We have been happy with the sounds with the woods we have been using but we have gradually branched out(for lack of a better term) so we will keep you posted on anything new. :)
That is honestly the best sounding bass drum I've ever heard, I'm wearing head phones and I feel it in my chest every time he hits it :)
Hits hard with the dynamics! Glad you are liking the toms!
Glad you are liking it! Have a great weekend!
