Condition & Quality
The Gretsch Brooklyn 3-Piece Drum Set (22 kick, 16 floor tom, 13 rack tom) in Purple Marine Pearl Nitron finish showcases Gretsch's commitment to detail and durability. Handcrafted in Gretsch's Ridgeland, SC factory, this kit uses 6-ply North American maple/poplar shells with interiors finished in the iconic Gretsch Silver Sealer. The shells feature 30-degree bearing edges for enhanced resonance and tonal focus. Hardware and finish are in top condition, with all moving parts functioning smoothly.
Sound & Playing Feel
The Brooklyn Series delivers a tone that is instantly recognizable yet distinct from the USA Custom series. These shells provide a slightly thicker construction for added punch, projection, and warmth. The 302 double-flanged hoops bring back the feel and response reminiscent of Gretsch drums from the 1950s, offering balanced sustain and a lively stick response. The overall sound is punchy, warm, and ambient, making this kit versatile for both live performances and studio applications. Order today and experience the legendary Gretsch sound in a stunning modern finish.
