Gretsch Catalina?

should i go with the gretsch catalina for ludwig drumset?

i bought a gretsch catalina maple
2 weeks ago

wen i pressed buy on the web i was thinking mm should i have done that or waited until i can get a better one??

im so happy i didnt

there so good, even the stock heads sound great

see my profile for pictures

so you're using stock heads or new pro heads?

im using the stock heads at the moment, havent decided what to get yet^

thinking of some coated g2's


with the stock heads that ive been using for 2 weeks now, the drums sound great



i would recommend some new heads as these seem to wear out quickly
i do play a lot but still to be able to almost see completely through the coated snare already seems a little to fast^

hmm cool

im thinking of either getting
Gretsch Catalina Maple
or
Custom Classic Birch

anyone know about custom classic?



believe it or not a lot of the reviews are made by the the company or whoever manufactures them.
A lot of them are untrustworthy so I'm asking if anyone here owns one.
I can youtube both, they were both professionally made in a studio. Most likely a lot of editing has been done in them.

i wouldnt get custom classic
but thats just personal preference, i dont like how they were marketed on a site i use almost more than i use jsp^
also, i dont think they look nice nor do i know how they sound


seriously, these catalina maples are really nice, and extremely well priced

if its the one im thinking of.. with the smaller kick drum... buy it

shits sick
