So sounds great setch! Thanks for the hi hat's brother!

I have a Catalina Club in Blue Satin Flame with the 20 inch bass drum. Everytime I play out, I get compliments from either the sound person, club owner, musicians or fellow drummers. It is a fantastic bargain and the tones are superior to much more expensive kits. I couldn't be more proud and happy to play Gretsch.

man, loved that lick between FT/BD that you do at 4:02! brilliant

Art is so hip!

Yes! Thanks for this.

awesome !!!

Talk about comparability ! Great demo to show how great both these brands are……

What album is this off of?

Still miss that kit

Toms sound edible😋😋😋😋

Masterful drumming. Excellent player can make any drum set sound Beautiful.

I studied with Joe - he was a friend and mentor - thanks for honoring his memory with this fine rendition, Greg Burrows

tama kick sounds a lot better

this is super helpful. thank you

that was very nice and inspiring, thanks a lot

What's the cymbal on the left side? It sounds great too.

So hard to decide. The tama has more definition but the gretsch blends better.

Amazing

I just love this stuff.

Excellent playing, as usual, and a good choice of a solo!

Gretsch, little warmer Round sounded ! Just ordered the Gretsch 140th Edition 🎉

Nice work, is that the istanbul agop 19" signature ride?

Ok.. I’m going to do it now!! Haha you inspire me man. Great playing 🎉

Cymbals????

More high frequency definition along with the rest of the frequency bandwidth with the ludwigs

God I wish I could play swing like this.

Surely sounds like Stan Getz to me, could you identify the track? I love it. Great drumming, thanks!

What's the song?

So awesome!! Got a new subscriber from Mexico, cheers! 🎉

Thanks for posting. First I love ride cymbals. Second I love Istanbul ride (and crash) cymbals. I have a few each of the other well known manufacturers and i like them, but I love Istanbuls. The mix of stick definition and wash is perfect for my ears. Of your super collection i think i like the Traditional ride cymbal, especially for your piece of music. Cheers. Bill.

I love them all. The 22-inch Traditional probably stands out the most to my ear (in a good way). The Pre-Split crash is a close second; it has just the right amount of dryness for this style of jazz. An excellent collection, my man!

Ludwig is fuller. They undersize their shells by 6mm and they’re easier to tune. And they’re cheaper. Ludwig all day over Gretsch.

I just love it!

I have this kit in copper sparkle. The only change I've made is to upgrade the hoops from 1.6 mm triple flange to 2.3 mm flange. Adding a 2" riser to the bass drum makes them sound much bigger. The quality is excellent. They are made in the DW factory in Taiwan to Gretsch's specs.

Excellent! Thanks for breaking this down. I will try to learn it.

Love this!

Nice man

Channeling Eric is heavy stuff.

A true student, well done!

What Istanbul series is that ride from? It’s gorgeous

The first one seems to have the darker, less disturbing wash

Thanks for the video!!

Bravo

The perfect interlude to my workday.

These are 2 fine sets of drums. Neither set sounds like one drum is out of place with the others, and both (from seeing this and the other tuning range videos) have equal versatility. Strictly on aesthetics, I like the centered lugs on the Gretsch a little more than I like the imperial lug on the Ludwig, but I actually prefer the smaller profile lug more than either one. Lugs wouldn't deter me from playing either one. I'd go Rail consolette over post through kick as well, but if the drums sound good, that's what truly counts.

Can't stand jazz

big differences, great video brother!

Awesome! Keep up the good work, btw what sticks do you use?

That was sweet!

22" 30th Anniversary was the one I liked the most
