About This Listing

Fresh from the Gretsch factory, here is a 18/12/14" Brooklyn drum set in our proprietary Fiesta Pearl wrap! I asked Gretsch to design this finish for me many years ago. It is a tribute to the Fiesta Pearl finish used by some manufacturers of the 60s. These drums are standard-build, 14x18", 8x12", 14x14" with no snare drum. The 8x12" comes with a rim mount to go with the center tom post that is installed on the bass drum, seen in our photos.

Steve’s notes: As mentioned, this finish is exclusive to us. . The Fiesta Pearl finish is colorful and ‘festive’ with multi-colored confetti-like designs agains the white background.

Here is a word from Gretsch on their Brooklyn series:

"Brooklyn, New York and Gretsch Drums share an inseparable legacy that is reflected in the Gretsch Brooklyn Series. Proudly hand-crafted in Gretsch’s Ridgeland, SC, USA factory, Gretsch Brooklyn produces a sound that is immediately recognizable, yet distinctively reinvented. Brooklyn drums feature 6-ply North American maple/poplar shells and are made slightly thicker than Gretsch’s USA Custom Drums and have a 30-degree bearing edge. Shell interiors are finished with classic Gretsch Silver Sealer. Each shell comes with a distinctive Brooklyn internal shell label that identifies the drum shell model number and serial number.

Brooklyn toms and snares feature the distinctive Gretsch “302” hoop. Its 3mm thick and double-flanged and is reminiscent of hoops used by Gretsch until the mid 1950’s. Brooklyn delivers classic Gretsch tones that are full, punchy and warm. Brooklyn’s innovative specifications created a new Gretsch tonal characteristic that is slightly more open and satisfyingly ambient. There is no denying that Brooklyn drums possess the sound of classic Gretsch drums, but deliver their own sonic personality."
