Ive seen a lot of threads with comments saying that PDP has a bad reputation among drummers and a lot of people saying they hate PDP. Why?
No hate, but after trying a few, it seems you can get twice the drums for half the price from many other companies.
..After having owned a couple of Drum Workshop kits (and consequently turned off of the brand), PDP is not even on my radar...
Here is my question, Did DW just take the Platinum line, change the lugs, double the price, and call it the Performance series?
I'm not making accusations, but that seems like what they did. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I think PDP would always struggle to break through the stigma of being 'the cheaper DW'. What I'm trying to say is that a lot of people will never see them as being anything more than mid-level kits, no matter how good they may become.
