This Gretsch Catalina Maple shell recipe exhibits explosive projection and balanced, wide-ranging tone. The fast response and vibrant sound make this an exceptional kit for any style of music, rock to country, and a great setup for recording studios. Shells are built from seven plies of soft Asian maple and come crowned with Gretsch's trademark rounded 30° bearing edges and Round Badge visuals. Combined, these qualities give the Catalina Maple a dry, beefy tone with a top-end bite and classic look that Gretsch fans of all stripes will take to immediately.
