Why DW? Probably because in my personal hay day of the 90's they were the top tier premier label, and in my mind continue to be. Besides that, their distinctive sound and design is just too damn special, again in my mind I'm sure.
I 100% support your quest (not financially though! ).
I remember DW's popping up everywhere during that time, as this was the same time I became really interested in drumming. One little thing to keep in mind is that DW's before 1997/1998 were made using Keller shells, so if you really, really like early DW's, then you are listening to a Keller drum set. DW's started making their own shells in the late 90's. Many people love their new shells while others prefer their "older" counterparts.
I just thought I'd throw it out there.
Once again, I'm really excited for you!
