Gretsch drum kit with warm and open sound
If you need a drum kit that works just as well in the studio as it does on stage, the Gretsch Renown Maple Studio Kit is a strong choice. This Gretsch shell set is aimed at the professional drummer looking for a versatile, warm sound with an open harmonic character, modern attack and projection.
The 7-ply maple shells combine, according to the series description, sounds from the 1950s up to today. You hear that in the warm vintage foundation, while the open response and projection fit modern playing styles.
Construction of the Gretsch Renown Maple Studio Kit
The shells are built from 7-ply maple and use a 30° bearing edge, an important part of the drum’s response. Inside, you get the well-known Gretsch Silver Sealer coating, and the updated Gretsch 302 steel hoops give you the focus of a die-cast hoop with less weight for more resonance.
You also get chrome hardware, a Low Profile tom mounting system and bass drums with round Gretsch tom brackets. The kit comes with Remo heads, and for this type of drum set Magna Music can also offer personal advice from a drum specialist.
