From the 1920s through the 1950s the Gretsch flagship drum set was the legendary Broadkaster Series. It featured a thin, three-ply shell and produced what was to be “That Great Gretsch Sound.” Today, in the Gretsch Drum Factory in Ridgeland, South Carolina USA, with the help of advanced drum-making techniques, the Broadkaster has returned bringing with it all of sonic brilliance of its namesake.
Broadkaster shells are made with a North American maple/poplar/maple formula. Each shell includes an interior-ply scarf joint that supplies added structural integrity to thin, musical shells. Like all USA-made Gretsch drums, shell interiors are finished with classic Gretsch Silver Sealer. The shell is hand finished with the exclusive reverse round-over bearing edge which allows greater surface contact between the bearing edge and drumhead. The result is tone that is incredibly deep and warm.
