Picked up a DW Workshop series BNOB, could use info.

So I just picked up one of these for $180. My intention was to harvest the hardware for another DW snare shell I have, but after playing it, I just can't bring myself to doing that.

I know these came out in 2003 and were initially offered (supposedly) as a Guitar Center exclusive.

Those of you in the know, I have a few questions:
1) What's the difference in the shell used in the original Workshop Series BNOB and the current Collectors BNOB?
2) If it's not the same shell, what is this most like in the DW lines currently?
3) This snare features a rolled shell, correct?

Thanks in advance.

From what I gathered these are steel instead of brass. They are rolled.

They can be seen for sale quiten often.

I think these were released together with the Workshop Series globally.


They released 10 and 12 wood side snares too. Mostly in wraps and some in natural laquer.
