DW Design Rata Tom 6x16 Matte Black

DW Design Rata Tom 6x16 — Compact Acrylic Effect Drum for Melodic Percussion

The DW Design Rata Tom is a 6-inch diameter, single-headed specialty drum engineered to deliver bright, cutting tones with pronounced attack. Built from 5mm seamless acrylic shells, this 16-inch deep tom produces a loud, crisp crack ideal for adding melodic and percussive textures to your kit. Rata Toms can be tuned across a wide pitch range and stacked in multiple configurations to create almost musical sequences, making them perfect for expanding your sonic palette beyond traditional drum sounds.

Designed for players seeking clarity and definition, the Rata Tom combines DW's professional-grade hardware with a sleek matte black finish. The direct-mount bracket system and True-Pitch tuning mechanism ensure stable, responsive tuning, while the compact 6-inch head diameter makes it easy to position and integrate into existing setups.
