[@thomasnappo6309]

Picked up this week..this kit with 20in bass drum😊

[@HaloAdmiral]

Just picked up this kit yesterday. I can honestly I am set on this for YEARS!

[@funkyfillbeats]

still ?

[@dontlookmeinmyeyeswhenudan5241]

I just got mine Wednesday

[@JulianFernandez]

Still have them?!

[@Jetty-xd9yc]

Here I am back again so probably the 50th time. Zach is an incredible dynamic player as well as the mahogany shells on this kit are so versatile! I especially love it when he tunes it down low, and like you said that feeling you get where your sticks just melt into the heads those drums sound amazing

[@gretschdrumsusa]

He really makes it look easy!

[@Ebut191]

Yes'm. I'm hearing y'all Cletus! It's just like slap'n ya spoon on the coagulated skin of Granny's Chitlin Chowder. Mighty Fine!

[@Soda_F1]

love that mahogany sound

[@LaJoMa87]

These drums sounds ridiculously good!!

[@ramencurry6672]

They are the drums I use for my studio because they sound so good. May not have the best build quality compared to the more expensive drums but for studio use it’s perfect

[@shawnbruce6934]

This Player Is Amazing! And This IS The Way Drums Should Sound. Retro Vibe Takes Me back to My first kit. It was a Gretsch.

[@roybeckerman9253]

I’d rather take these for gigs on stage, than a very expensive kit. Good sound and can’t tell the difference behind electric guitars and keyboards. An audience could not tell the difference. Spend the rest on good cymbals....you can hear the difference there. Love this colour..

[@slappyboxer]

U have great taste

[@slappyboxer]

This is what a really tasty player needs-- just my opinion- love the jazz

[@davidcudlip6587]

Agreed. Cymbals can make or break a great drum sound. I'd spend way more time and effort on cymbal selection.

[@carvelli3]

The Gretsch Catalina Series with mahogany shells is my favorite kit!

[@nicklangmusic]

I have an old round badge, and a Brooklyn. Might have to add one of these kits...

[@goseeaboutagirl]

Do you think the round badge is worth the price?

[@nicklangmusic]

@@goseeaboutagirl man I traded the round badge for a 40’s Broadkaster. The Round Badge was worth more, plus it came with a snare, but I’m glad I traded it in, because the Broadkaster is sick.

[@chickenbeforeegg]

Everything after 2:27 is just pure swagger.

[@EricBaileyDrums]

Man Zach's playing is so hip.

[@Ireland299]

WORLD CLASS DRUM SOLO / LOVE THE HIGH AND LOW TONES ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[@markcattell6248]

The snare sounds so cool

[@charliecontrino1626]

NICE! LOVE the snare at both tunings!

[@shawnbruce6934]

Great Drumkit!

[@davidcurtis4478]

Look great! Sound great! David Curtis Drumming- currently playing Gretsch kit.

[@davidcurtis4478]

I love that snare too, sounds very 'electro' "Excuse me Doug E. Fresh" ;) Cool!! David Curtis Drumming

[@davidcurtis4478]

+David Curtis man I need to get one of these now!! "Yo yo yo, yeh yeh yeh" du---du-da du-du, DA!! lol. Anyone knows this will know what I'm talking about! ;) David Curtis Drumming

[@blakegowan6623]

Great vid....makes me want a set....would like to hear...club rock sizes...22" kick and such..

[@drumbyte]

Great playing!

[@jambam6176]

1:03 Mixing engineer is on point. This kit sounded like a vintage drum machine at times.

[@gretschdrumsusa]

🎧😄

[@TheHellpoy]

This stack sounds amazing. I am too curious!

[@Ranger1216]

That jazz tuning @ 2;38 is outstanding bebop. And the price is really to me the best deal for mahogany. Gretsch bearing edge also at 30 Degrees is real old school. !!!

[@JeffreyMiddelveld]

1:03. Daym, such a J.J. Johnson type of sound. Love it!

[@eznack1489]

You got the 70s sound down bud 👌🏼

[@noelghallager4672]

fucking love Zach's pocket... and those drums sound killer

[@JDDrumbeats]

Love the tuning work this guy did. Best review for this kit. Really made fall in love with it. Extremely versatile, practical and good quality (not ignoring the color and design they did was off the roof) definitely considering buy one.

[@gretschdrumsusa]

Thank you JD!

[@peanuckets2487]

I like the sound

[@es30888]

With that much signal processing applied I have know idea what these drums actually sound.

[@artcorvolet]

EJ Smith Just goes to show you can play anything with a good sound man

[@roybeckerman9253]

artcorvolet No need to spend many thousands, if sound engineers can get good sounds with cheaper drums.

[@roybeckerman9253]

@fartpoobox ohyeah Yep...but you can’t do much about bad sounding cymbals. Better off spending your money there..

[@mikeozowski5251]

Would this be a good kit for multi genre gigging? I looking for a kit that can handle if I'm filling in for a jazz club, world percussion club, rock bar, etc. I know a 20" bass drum is optimal because it can cover most tuning ranges but my concern is the bass drum depth of 14"

[@gretschdrumsusa]

+Mike Ozowski Of course. We hope this video was able to show that. 😃

[@alihutton]

I would go for one with the 20'', jazz drummers dont really use a kick as small as 14''

[@Carlo24515]

I have one of these, and it's very verstile. The only place it falls short is when I'm playing loud rock or hip-hop/RnB gigs, especially where the drums aren't all mic'd. For that I tend to go for something with a brighter attack and punch (gospel chops kind of sound) to cut through. This kit plays really great at low-medium volumes in a wide array of tuning ranges though, so if you're still looking then I would recommend it as a good all around, portable kit.

[@ozziep123]

@@alihutton I think he means 14" deep. 20 x 14

[@shawnbruce6934]

14" depth on 20" kick works actually better than 16" depth. More responsive.

[@JeffreyMiddelveld]

I own a Catalina kit too, but the only thing that I don't like is the tom bracket. For some reason it just kills the tone and lets the overtones do it's work. When I even lift the tom only an inch, the toms floats freely and it sounds even better than a 2000 dollar DW (of course it's subjective). Other than that, fantastic kit! The 18x14" kick really sounds amazing. Also got a 16x16" floortom, which is a killer and on top of that, I recently ordered a 24x14" kick for an explosive, big fat and open sound. The big advantage about the Catalina line is that they're really affordable and almost everything that you would like is available. Just brilliant, thanks a lot Gretsch!

[@ramencurry6672]

I agree the Tom sounds good. I was going to get rid of it after replacing it with the Gretsch Renown Tom Tom drum. However I decided to keep it since it has its own distinctive sound and I feel that the more expensive drums don’t sound better. Just different

[@prod_adrian]

ufff love that sound! rarity nowadays

[@peanuckets2487]

gretch shells are really great

[@sbskking]

Isaiah E In fact, they are DW shell.

[@thiash1e]

Sunbeom Kim wrong friend. Watch Steve Maxwell discuss the Gretsch/DW relationship. DW does not make Gretsch Drums. They only distribute.

[@asanmartinjr07]

The gloss crimson burst color & finish looks amazing!!!!

[@stephenlandry9061]

Great sounding kit and great playing. Gretsch & Ludwig just have that sound , I say Ludwig because that’s what I play.

[@tryharder249]

Impressionante o som que sai dessa bateria pequena!

[@pierreg8562]

this is the best presentation of a drumkit i've seen, 3 amazing tunings, great playing - really makes me wanna get that same kit. Is it 20 - 12 - 14?

[@benmcc2869]

18”

[@pierreg8562]

@@benmcc2869 thanks

[@Htothepizzle]

is that the 18x14 or 20x14 kick?

[@MarkDrums77]

It sounds awesome but actually i got here trying to find a review as good as this one for the Rock version on this beautifull color. One other thing i want to know if someone can help me, is why is Gretsch making 24" bass drums 14" in depth and on the rock KIts no 18" flor tom. I had a Charcoal Pearl Catalina CLub like 9 years ago and it had a 24 x 18 bass drum which was a cannon and a 18 floor tom which added a super ultra rocker kit IMO. Now i'm interested on this new version with the 14" depth kick but are there any chances to get an 18" floor tom? THANKS!!!!

[@markcattell6248]

God I’m gonna have to get one

[@tobyvattilano7846]

The snare...wow

[@gretschdrumsusa]

😄

[@Drumsticksmcgee]

Well said Zach

[@donaldburnet6948]

I would love to know what the diameter of the kick drum is here.

[@corneliusknudsen8058]

Iam 18 years old. And i have played on the same gretsch Catalina set for 10 years. No other drum set. That says alot

[@gretschdrumsusa]

😄 Thank you!

[@lukesuperflyjones]

NICE!! Does anybody know if the bass drum he's playing a 18" or the 20"? @gretschdrumusa

[@dontlookmeinmyeyeswhenudan5241]

lukesuperflyjones 18 I think

[@pierreg8562]

@@dontlookmeinmyeyeswhenudan5241 i have the same question, it would be great to confirm. i have the feeling it's the 20" and if that's the case i think i'm sold :)

Which Catalina Club Series is this?

[@bobbydroback8994]

the second tuning, low and fat made me fall in love instantly. unless he's using triggers, than forget it, my heart is broken.

[@smithzzlesaffre8121]

Me too incredible

[@bobbydroback8994]

+smithzz lesaffre I'm taking a guess here but are you a fan of the Smiths or Midnight Oil?

[@gretschdrumsusa]

no triggers

[@bobbydroback8994]

+gretschdrumsusa thank you from the bottom of my heart. I've toured with two bands for two decades, used a million kits trying to imitate that sound. now I know you cheeky bastards have it.... So will I

[@roybeckerman9253]

Prefer these to the more expensive Renowns.. I’m not sure if there is any weekness in the quality or workmanship. USA made Gretsch are obviously better, but far more expensive. Love the Brooklyns the best, personally.

[@deepseahorse]

Check out his band Mister Barrington! It's musicianship on an alien level.

[@mrnegronis]

What kind of mahogany is this? Is it all mahogany or are there filler plies?

[@paulbudd3661]

I wakt the set, and i want the shoes👌

[@djevlhelvete]

Please always include drum sizes in the description...Something as essential as knowing if it's an 18" or 20" bass drum can't be left out or left for us to speculate on, for example. Frustrating. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@dannydrum1]

Great sounding drums! What sizes is he using? It looks like they are 13, 16, and 24 bass drum with the 5.5x14 snare.

[@gretschdrumsusa]

[@dave90mckeague]

20, 12, 14, 14

[@malinwj1167]

Actually looks like an 18 bass drum. Notice how high and off center the beater is.

[@philbov]

Is he playing an 18" or 20" kick in this video?

Great colour and value for money, if you can't afford the USA made kits.

that patch REMO is ? ambassador? emperor??

[@mambius3080]

I saw on the snare drum a drumhead moving! I think he put a drumhead without the ring on top...

[@Jetty-me6cw]

mambius when? I didn't catch it. what time in the video if you could tell me that be great

[@mambius3080]

Jettylocal1502 watch out when he start the second sound at minute 1,05 the Remo logo is moving!

[@Jetty-me6cw]

mambius yup. Good catch. it still sounds great though

[@ericgonzalez3717]

So did he just cut the center of the head out and place it on top of the drum?

[@remibouchard5477]

Can you play half as good , no... well sshu.....!! Gretch drums 👌

[@Ebut191]

That "retro 70's sound" Zoc referred to was lazy Septic engineers and drummers that couldn't tune or handle sustain!!! The UK engineers had no such issues and hence sounded like musical instruments as opposed to Septic Soggy Slop. SILLY SEPTICS!
