The Gretsch Catalina Maple series starts with the Gretsch maple formula shell. They carefully developed the maple shell specification to produce tones that explode with attack and volume and project a balanced amount of warm, low-end frequencies.
All Catalina Maple shells are 7-ply, 7.2mm. equipped with "Gretsch Classic" features and hardware, including 30-degree bearing edges, fully-adjustable Gretsch ball-and-socket tom holder with 12.7mm tom arms, 9020-style mounting brackets and the famous 5-lug configuration (a standard Gretsch feature for over 50 years) for all 10" / 12" toms.
All drums feature a multi-step lacquer process that produces an extremely glassy-smooth finish that is hard and durable. In addition, Gretsch has partnered with Remo drum heads to produce a distinctive Gretsch batter and resonant head combination. Drums are easy to tune and produce full tones right out of the box.
Gretsch Catalina Maple 5-Piece Shell Pack is available in configurations and 3 colors:
