    I know opinions may very but I for one am glad to see the Renown series back with a tom mount system on the bass drum. Easier and more consistent setup. I actually added the tom mount to my Renown’s...

    Reply from Gretsch. The kit and finish won't be available until Feb. I guess I'm on hold.

    Re: Catalina Club

    Owned a Birch kit and didn't care for the brightness of the drums tone. Thinking the mahogany will be closer to my maple Renowns.

    Thanks for the reply's.

    Re: Any idea what brand and or model kit this is?

    Not sure why but I didn’t pick up on the difference in the tom lugs. Yea the bass, one tom, and snare might be Ludwig but the floor toms and larger rack tom are different for sure. Ask about the...

    A better picture of the floor tom leg brackets might help. One thing for sure reinforcement rings and twenty lug bass drum says it’s likely not an import. Double floor tom also lends to believe it is...

    Re: Any idea what brand and or model kit this is?

    A rebuild maybe. Looks like Ludwig hardware (lugs), Pearl tom mounts, and reinforcement rings on the bass and toms. I’m thinking Ludwig but the spurs are throwing me off. Did Ludwig ever use a spur...

    Re: Gretsch USA-DW Collectors Shoot Out

    Yes you are likely right about the mix having some differences. I have given a second listen and as I said both kits sound great. The Gretsch snare is a great sounding drum. Hang on to that one.

    Re: Gretsch USA-DW Collectors Shoot Out

    Hard to tell about the toms and bass but the snare on the Gretsch kit is so much better than the DW kit. More defined might be the best way to describe it. Both kits do sound great though.

    Re: my last modification on my Taye snare

    I’m thinking this weakens the rim but also who changes snare wires at a show. In fact just how often do you change snare wires ever? My 81 Slingerland snare has the same wires it came with and is one...

    Gretsch has a new website.

    From the look of things Gretsch/DW has pared down their offerings and made some changes to their lines. Renown’s have new rims and it appears you can now order the kit with a snare as standard. Note...

    What is your take? Has DW put the skids on the Gretsch brand? Since their marketing takeover Gretsch has had almost no web page updates. The last event listed was a July event in NYC. I have recently...
