Well after scowering the internet I was able to find a Gretsch Birch 16X16 floor tom to match my kit, and it arrived today. This is one drum purchase I don't think I'm going to regret. having the second floor tom, really seems to have expanded what I can do on the kit. More options for fills, and the range of the kit is expanded. With the second floor tom to cover the low end, I was able to raise the pitch of the other toms slightly. Now the drums really sing. I had to play piano for a church service tonight, and it's a little late now to play, so I've only had about an hour on the set with the new drum, I can't wait until tomorrow to really give it a workout.

Do you know if there were any available floor tom sizes for the Catalina Elite birch? I found a bunch of results for just birch Catalina but not the Elite's. I think the difference may be the size... My deepest tom is mounted and at 14x12 and I wasn't sure whether going to a 16x16 would be wise in terms of tonal range. Congrats btw

i go from 14x11 (mounted) to 16x16 floor toms. it works out fine for me. i also have a 15x14 FT but dont think it matches up with the 14x11 as well in the tonal range as the 16x16. at least not with a 10", 12", 14" "fusion" sized config. i use the 15" and 16" when i play 12" and 13" rack toms.

Although I don't want to hijack this thread, I thought it might be the right place for a comment, rather than starting a whole new thread just for a comment. Some of us with the Gretsch Catalina Maple kit were hoping that Gretsch might come out with an add-on 8" tom this year, but I just got an email from their customer service and they have decided against it, since they can't guarantee that the finish on the add-ons would match the current kits. Too bad!
CD, I know that the Catalina birch kit was being sold as a 3 up, and 1 down configuartion of a while. Now that you have found a 16X16 tom, have you considered trying to find an 8" tom for your kit?

congradulations CD on the purchase, enjoy your kit!
i was thinking about that 8" too. once you get locked into playing more than 5 drums, you start to get da "big kit fever". once that sets in... the 8" add on is the only logical way to go. you will not be happy without it.
i love the 3 up 2 dow setup.

I have an 8"on my kit and really I don't use it that often, it is high pitched and looses projection unless it is close miced. It is fine but really if I didn't have it, knowing what I know about it now I wouldn't miss it at all.
That's very good to know CD, and BTD!

Well last night I got to really play on it, having that extra low tone, is really great, and having extra tom, I don't have to use the snare to do a four drum fill It's great to have the extra flexibility. I really glad I went for it, and was able to find one!!
