Ordered this kit with a 20" bass drum this weekend. Can't wait to get it. The color is what got my attention.. The sound is what sold me.
Fantastic instruments, playing, and recording. Thanks!
Great playing and great-sounding kit!
These kits are the best kept secret
Great playing on a great little set. I have two sets of these and have been playing since the 1960 era. I am seventh now and these will sound so big to be so small.
Sounding beautiful bill 🔥🔥
Really liking the satin flame finishes, more and more.
Very nice sound and drumming 👍
Awesome review mate. And unreal drumming! 🥁🔥
Just ordered one of these for the studio . Looking forward to setting it up.
Beautiful looking, and sounding drums!!! I have a Yamaha stage custom birch. Very similar open sound. Fat, round, woody tones. I'm in love!!!!
very nice playing!!!
Cheers, Bill
Dude you sold it to me. Great kit, excellent drumming, fantastic review. Good job👍kit looks amazing in this finish and sounds like a top class drumset.
It looks better in person. During MPAs for my school band i saw a floor tom of these sets out in the sun and it looked so beautiful
This is basically a deal of the century. You’re getting real Gretsch drums for just a fraction of the cost. The only thing is that the metal hardware is not as sturdy as the more expensive models but for me it doesn’t matter since I only use them in the studio
That sounds great! How did you record it?
Just ordered one today, looking forward to playing that beauty, cheers mate.
Did you enjoy the kit? I own it too.
gosgood1973 yes it’s absolutely amazing. Changed the snare out for a ludwig supraphonic though.
@@boba.7307 Me TOO! GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE
@@gosgood1973 Aha yes! Mine was made in 970 its the standard 400, what about yours?
@@boba.7307 I bought mine recently at Sweetwater
Gretsch Catalina Club. The workhorse of Swing Jazz!!! There are hundreds of different "Bop" kits out there, but from practice and rehearsal all the way to live shows and recordings, no other drum set is used to play Swing Jazz as much as the Catalina Club Jazz kit.
if is used so much maybe that is primarily a sign that is not the best but the cheapest to get away with to get an average sound the club audiences that also are Not drummers accept and you can get away cheaply by?
@@SimplicityForGood what you said is correct, that's why it's such a great workhorse
I like mine!
Yeah. Wish I'd bought one of these kits rather than my $3k Tama Starclassic kit. Think of the cash I'd have had for Constantinoples!
How does it compare to your Catalina kit? Gretsch says they revised it when they went with the round badges. I'm wondering how big of a difference it is compared to the square badge kits? By the way, the snare tuning is fantastic!! Best sounding Catalina snare on you tube! Thanks for posting.
What is the muffler on snare?
Is that the way you wanted it to sound? We all have different preferences just curious. It’s a bit open and airy for my taste but I have zero doubt that a change of heads would give the sound I’m interested in. Regardless amazing playing and gorgeous kit.
I share the exact same thought. Were you able to get the sound you were looking for?
I never did like a wood snare
That snare would sound better, unmuffled and have a fuller sound.
Give me those drums!
