Gretsch Catalina Maple Kit

Hey, I need some trustworthy information of this kit, (which I know i can get here Cool

) When looking on the internet, I've found peopel saying it is an awsome kit, then people saying that it completely sucks. So how good is it really? Is it just a budget kit, or it is a true intermediate drum kit?

Thanks in advance for any info you can give me.

(p.s, the kit i'm looking at is a 6 pc (with two floor toms) in Cherry Red, and costs £464.00)

That is a great kit my friend. I love it, I'd get it if I didn't have the catalina birch. I'd say it's a bit above intermediate kits. Try it out yourself before you buy it though. Hope this helps.

Gretschs Catalina line is nothing short of amazing. I have the Catalina ash, which i bought second hand. I was planning on the catalina maple kit, but i got a killer deal on the catalina ash and a pdp super rack. Im sure you will fine this kit a great buy, on another note...the guy i bought this from..is buying an export...thats about the biggest mistake he could make.

I certainly think they're good value for what you're getting.

Personally though i'd go for some Mapex Pro-M's or pay a little extra and get the Saturns.

If you buy any of the 3 you'd love them.
