Gretsch Catalina Maple Drum Set Review
The great thing about Maple is that it offers sweet tones and near-perfect resonance, which gives the skilled drummer the control they need to produce the sound they want, no matter what style of music they play. The robust 6-ply North American Maple shells are fashioned in the Gretsch factory with great attention to detail. Hydraulically compressed and heat-glued to create an air-tight sound chamber that will project clearly to the back of the room, this shell pack employs sturdy 2.5mm triple flange hoops in each piece that allow for unhindered vibration and a complete tuning range. Take Control of your Sound
Set up this set to be bright and crisp with high-end Rock or Metal attack, or mid-ranged for versatility that encompasses pop, jazz, or country. Tune it low for punchy, deep tones that will provide the perfect foundation for R&B gigs and more.
Conclusion
The Gretsch Catalina Maple Series Drum Set comes with a 14x6 snare for deeper tones, more volume, and crackling rim-shots. Those who use the set recommend switching out the factory heads for your personal favorites, and keeping an eye on the lugs, which might loosen up with the rigors of serious jamming. Beyond that, drummers love the sound and the durable quality of the drums. No stands are included with new sets, but used kits probably will include them. Keep that in mind when comparing sets. This set is priced very competitively for the quality it offers. Look for used kits starting at $325, and new sets starting at $759.
