Gretsch Catalina Club 2014 Satin Walnut Glaze: the genuine Gretsch sound
The shells of this four-part fusion shell set are made of 7-ply mahogany, a solid wood type that is often used to manufacture drum kits, as it provides a warm tone and allows for optimal shell resonance. The 30-degree bearing edges increase the resonating ability of the mahogany shells and deliver that unique Gretsch sound. The CT1-J404-SWG shell set is supplied with single-ply Remo drumheads.
Catalina Club 2014
The Catalina Club 2014 Satin Walnut Glaze shell set sports a number of new features. It is fitted with Catalina mini lugs and the bass drum is equipped with a round badge-style clamp with memory lock. The new Catalina tom brackets of the 2014 drum kit series feature improved, great-looking T-shaped wingnuts and offer room for an optional 7/8-inch cymbal arm. The hardware is made of durable metal; it is evident that Gretsch value high-quality materials. The floor tom of this Satin Walnut Glaze shell set is equipped with three adjustable legs, which are fitted with anti-slip rubber caps.
