The idea is simple: to provide a truly compact, lightweight, and quick-to-set-up kit while maintaining manufacturing and hardware standards worthy of a stage instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithin the PDP range, the New Yorker is positioned as the ultimate \"mobility\" solution. It meets the needs of drummers who move between rehearsals, lessons, café concerts, or who want a second kit that's easy to live with, without giving up the true feel of an acoustic drum set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum Kit Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis PDP New Yorker is aimed at both motivated \u003cstrong\u003ebeginners\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eactive\u003c\/strong\u003e drummers looking for a compact kit. Its reduced footprint is especially relevant if you play in tight spaces (small stages, studios, places of worship, bars) or if you regularly need to transport your instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn terms of styles, the short and responsive configuration works very well for \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eindie\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emodern jazz\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eneo-soul\u003c\/strong\u003e, and all music where a snappy, precise, and quickly controllable drum sound is appreciated. With a good choice of heads and tuning, it can also handle rock at reasonable volume while maintaining a clean attack and clear low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe New Yorker concept is based on a balanced 4-piece configuration centered around a \u003cstrong\u003e16-inch bass drum\u003c\/strong\u003e: a format highly appreciated for its ease of placement and immediate response. The kit includes a \u003cstrong\u003etom mount on the bass drum\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003e10.5 mm diameter tom arm\u003c\/strong\u003e, convenient for quickly mounting the tom without adding extra stands, and a \u003cstrong\u003ebass drum riser\u003c\/strong\u003e to optimize beater positioning on a small bass drum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hardware emphasizes reliability and tuning precision thanks to \u003cstrong\u003eTrue-Pitch tension rods\u003c\/strong\u003e developed by DW, known for offering finer and more stable tuning. The \u003cstrong\u003emini lugs\u003c\/strong\u003e with a compact design help reduce weight, enhancing the kit's appeal for mobile drummers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, it is important to note the \"to be completed\" positioning of this version: \u003cstrong\u003ethe drum kit is delivered without hardware or cymbals\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is an advantage if you want to choose your stands, pedals, and cymbals according to your playing style, budget, and requirements (ultra-light, studio, rugged touring, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003epoplar shells\u003c\/strong\u003e are appreciated for their \u003cstrong\u003ewarmth\u003c\/strong\u003e and balance: they produce a naturally round sound with a soft to moderate attack and a consistent response across the entire range. Poplar favors a musical and forgiving tone, very pleasant for working on dynamics and achieving a kit that tunes easily without fighting overly aggressive overtones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e16x14 bass drum\u003c\/strong\u003e surprises with its presence: the low end is shorter and more focused than a 22-inch, but remains solid with an immediate \"punch\" perfect for amplified contexts or small spaces. The \u003cstrong\u003e10x8 tom\u003c\/strong\u003e provides clear and precise articulation, while the \u003cstrong\u003e13x12 floor tom\u003c\/strong\u003e offers a dense and quick low-mid range, ideal for effective fills and a well-defined groove. The \u003cstrong\u003e14x5 snare drum\u003c\/strong\u003e fits easily into the mix: sharp rimshots, controlled ghost notes, and sensitivity suitable for both light playing and stronger hits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original \u003cstrong\u003eRemo heads\u003c\/strong\u003e contribute to a coherent sound right out of the box, providing a solid base to adjust attack, sustain, and projection according to your tuning and style (more open for live, more muted for studio, tighter for funk, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e16x14, 10x8, 13x12, 14x5\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PDP By DW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54359570120979,"sku":"336922","price":486.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/7010e4305ee1d7cb41a8adb84cf049d8bb315f17_PDP_BY_DW_PD802562.jpg?v=1787370120","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/pdp-by-dw-electric-green-sparkle-shell-set-new-yorker-pdny1604el-336922","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
