The Gretsch Catalina Ash series has been designed with power in mind for the player who is looking full, penetrating tones and solid overall features. Ash wood produces a lively tone that projects a clear, cutting sound. The snare quickly reacts with an aggressive tone that bites with authority. The UV gloss finishes (AC and AR colors) fully reveal the visually striking ash wood grain pattern throughout the drum set. The LBB color option features Liquid Black wrap with black nickel hardware for a sleek and mysterious appearance. Other features include pro tom holders, heavy 2.5 triple-flanged hoops, die-cast bass drum claws, telescopic spurs, GTS tom suspension systems.
