Traditional meets modern

Gretsch drums have strong associations with jazz legends like Tony Williams, Max Roach, and Elvin Jones, as well as rock drummers like Charlie Watts and Phil Collins. The Gretsch Catalina Club Rock Drumset is perfectly suited to fans of heavier genres with its classic Rock configuration. The shells made of 100% seven-ply mahogany deliver a warm, resonant sound. From its round badges and classic lugs through to the natural wood and foil surfaces, this set has a look that is very clearly in keeping with the Gretsch tradition.

13" x 9" Gretsch Catalina Club Rack Tom

Big drums - voluminous sound

A 24"x14" bass drum combined with 13"x9" and 16"x16" toms and a 14"x 6.5" wooden snare drum make up the Catalina Club Rock drum set. Gretsch’s typical 30° bearing edge not only gives the mahogany drums a soft, musical sound, but also makes tuning the drum heads a lot easier. Additionally, the free-floating tom mounting system and the 1.6mm thick hoops ensure optimum sustain. With its sturdy bass drum legs and the flexibly adjustable tom holder, the kit - unlike its predecessors from the 60s and 70s - can easily cope with the rigours of everyday touring. Last but not least, the 14" deep bass drum creates a warm, powerful sound that is strongly reminiscent of the classic vintage sounds.

Gretsch Catalina Club Rock Drumkit

There’s a lot more to it than just Rock…

The list of possible applications for the Catalina Club Rock Drumset is very diverse. The affiliation with Rock music is already clear from the name, but it cuts an excellent figure in many other places too. The kit also makes a convincing case for other heavier genres thanks to its large drum shells. Above all, the mighty 24" bass drum, a size that Big Band drummers of the 1920s also appreciated, delivers some respectable power. Drummers who travel a lot will appreciate the small number of drums and the fact that the complete set can be easily stowed in a car.

About Gretsch Drums

The Gretsch company was founded in 1883 by Friedrich Gretsch, a German-born immigrant, in Brooklyn/USA and has been owned by Drum Workshop since 2015. In the first decades of its existence, the company specialised in the production of tambourines, drums, and banjos, but from around 1930 it started building guitars. By this time, Gretsch had established itself as a serious manufacturer of drum sets, and in the decades that followed, Gretsch drums were extremely popular, especially among Jazz drummers. Today, Gretsch offers a range of drum sets in all price ranges, starting with the affordable Catalina series and extending to the exclusive American Custom drums - and every series includes traditional features, a characteristic trait of Gretsch Drums.

Your fellow musicians will also love this drum set

Whether you are in the rehearsal room or on stage, the Gretsch Catalina Club Rock drum set is suitable for all drummers who want to make themselves heard over their fellow musicians in the most elegant way possible. The reasons for this are obvious: Thanks to the large drum sizes and the associated increase in volume, this kit is able to hold its own against loud guitar riffs. It was not for nothing that John Bonham (Led Zeppelin) was an enthusiastic fan and trendsetter of large bass drums. Thanks to the excellent musical sound, this happens without being obtrusive, which will also really be appreciated by your fellow bandmates.
