Build of the Gretsch Brooklyn Standard Shell Set
The shells are made from 6 plies of maple and poplar. Combined with the 30° bearing edge, the Gretsch 'Silver Sealer' inner shell coating and the Gretsch '302' hoops, this creates the highly individual sound character this series is known for.
The '302' hoops are double flanged 3 mm steel hoops. This shell pack also has chrome hardware and Remo heads, and it is handmade in Ridgeland, South Carolina, Made in USA.
