Here we have a Gretsch USA Custom. This kit was originally made between 2000 - 2002, the kit was made all as one consignment (circa ‘01-’02). The kit features 2 mounted toms, 1 floor tom and bass drum. The kit is finished in the Satin Natural finish and has triple flanged hoops (Die-Cast wasn't available on the European Market at the time due to the exchange rate expense) The kit is in good players condition, and also features an un- drilled bass drum spec.
Gretsch USA Custom drums have served as the foundation for “That Great Gretsch Sound” for over 65 years. At the heart of each drum is the legendary 6-ply Gretsch-formula maple/gum shell with its expertly formed 30-degree bearing edge, the exclusive "Silver Sealer” interior finish and rugged die cast hoops. The custom drum building team in Ridgeland, South Carolina uses time-tested, classic finishing techniques such as hand-rubbed stains and nitro-cellulose lacquers. Gretsch’s nitron-finishes are some of the world’s finest, offering additional durability and legendary styling.
The kit comes fully re-headed with brand new Evans G2 batter over Genera Reso heads on the Toms, an EMAD for the bass drum batter and a brand new EQ3 Resonant complete with Gretsch Logo for the resonant side. This kit needs no work what so ever, it’s ready to play!
