DW 5050 Single Pedal History – Limited Edition!

When a company like DW reaches the 50-year milestone, a special release of their coveted 5000 series kick pedal is only fitting. The DW 5050 comes decked out with a carbon fiber footboard and heel plate. These are dressed up in the 1-year-only DW50 logo! Furthermore this not only adds a sharp look, but reduces a bit of weight for easy-breezy footing and lighter travel, thus making this the perfect pedal for you. Despite the new look, it operates exactly as the standard and timeless 5000 — fast, precise, and with enough durability to last through any show and tour. With its double chain, felt beater, and accompanying travel bag, the 5050 is up for any task, from the rigors of the road to the uncompromising demands of the recording studio.

DW – The Drum Workshop History

Drum Workshop was founded in 1972 as a teaching studio by Don Lombardi. Alongside student John Good, Lombardi began a small drum equipment sales operation to cover the studio’s operation costs. After the closure of the Camco Drum Company in 1977, its manufacturing equipment was purchased by Drum Workshop. After selling primarily drum hardware, the company finally began making its first drum sets in 1990.

DW expanded into larger facilities in Oxnard, California, and subsequently grew to oversee a new company, Pacific Drums and Percussion. The company offered lower-priced drum sets. In 2015, Drum Workshop acquired Ovation Guitars, Latin Percussion, Toca Percussion, Gibraltar Hardware, and KAT Technologies. In November, 2019, DW acquired Slingerland Drum Company from Gibson, with plans to introduce Slingerland-branded, vintage style drums to the market in 2020.

Lastly, in late 2022, Roland acquired DW for $65 million as the company looked to expand into the acoustic drum market.
