Delivering the traditional Gretsch sound with an incredibly open and harmonic tone, the Renown series of drums feature 7-ply Gretsch formula maple shells, 30-degree bearing edges and exclusive “Silver Sealer” interiors. Now, with one drum set, you can play with the sensitivity and touch to handle the smoothest grooves of the 1950s; the attack and projection required to drive the most powerful compositions of the '60s and '70s; and the clarity and vibrance needed to faithfully reproduce the clean studio sounds of the '80s, '90s and beyond.Features include:• 16x20 Bass Drum, 7x10, 8x12 Rack Toms, 14x14 Floor Tom, 5.5x14 Snare Drum• 7 ply Maple• 30 Degree Bearing Edge• Gretsch Double Flanged “302” Hoops• Gretsch Silver SealerThe new Satin Antique Blue Burst finish joins the existing catalog of four lacquer and two premium Nitron finishes.
