"A work of art!"
Just received my Gretsch 7 piece Catalina drum kit today. After much pondering with color choices, I settled for the silver sparkle (new for 2017). Not one shred of disappointment, with not only color selection, but the overall quality of Gretsch drums. I've always wanted and old school kit and finally decided on these bad boys. They are simply a thing of beauty! The sound of the 7 ply maple shells really stand out, are quite versatile and easy to tune. No short cuts taken with this kit, it's very well made with much detail and the hardware is top notch. I'm totally ecstatic with my choice and would highly recommend this product to anyone! Time to earn my badge. Thank you zZounds for helping to make this purchase a most pleasant experience! A top shelf company! I look forward to doing business again with you in the future.
