Are DW and PDP drums the same brand which one is better?

Yes. DW (Drum Workshop) and PDP (Pacific Drums and Percussion) are both drum brands owned by the same company.

While DW is considered the higher-end brand, both DW and PDP drums offer quality construction and sound. DW drums are known for their high-quality materials, attention to detail, and professional-level sound. PDP drums, on the other hand, are more affordable and offer a variety of options to suit different drumming needs.

Ultimately, the choice between DW and PDP depends on personal preferences, budget, and the level of quality and performance required.
