Made from 6-ply Maple/Poplar shells, the 3 piece Gretsch Brooklyn shell pack produces the recognisable Gretsch sound, but reinvented to create a unique tone. The Brooklyn series produces a powerfully warm sound, with the Maple/Poplar offering a full and open tone. The drum hoops provide the tone with personality and ambience, giving the drums an all-rounder sound. The Brooklyn drums feature Gretsch Permatone heads, created by Remo, that produce a punchy tone with a bright attack, controlled sustain, and a full resonance.
The Brooklyn series of drums from Gretsch are hand-made using a combination of Maple and Poplar in a 6-ply construction with the classic Gretsch silver sealing interior finish, alongside a satin ice blue metallic exterior finish. Taking inspiration from the Brooklyn scene, the drums use old Gretsch designs with modern technology and hardware to create an artistic expression. The drums also feature Gretsch brackets, legs, straight-sided GTS, tom holder, spurs and vintage styled double-flanged high-profile hoops. The kit also comes with free-floating isolation mounts that help to cut out all cross-vibrations to keep the drums' tones consistent and prevents any cross contamination between them.
The Gretsch Drums Brooklyn 3pc Shell Pack offers a foundation setup that can be finished with the hardware and cymbals of your choice and expanded with add-on drums and holders if you choose. When paired with high-quality cymbals and hardware, the Gretsch Brooklyn Shell Pack offers a great learning experience for drummers of any level, offering the high-quality components and features which more advanced drummers require.
