Combined, these qualities give the Catalina Maple a dry, beefy tone with a top-end bite and classic look that Gretsch fans of all stripes will take to immediately.

Versatile 7-ply maple shells

Here's a refresher on tonewoods: whether you're talking drum shells or electric guitars, maple makes an exceptionally musical foundation. It has a fast, explosive response that's also very dynamic, allowing the subtle details of your performance to shine through. The Catalina Maple shell pack delivers a wide-ranging tone that's suitable for any musical style, making it a perfect addition to the recording studio.

Rounded 30° bearing edges

The Catalina Maple takes sonic cues from Gretsch kits of antiquity. Rounded 30° bearing edges maximize the surface area between the hoops and shells for a dry, punchy response.

A proud part of Gretsch's American music legacy

The Catalina Maple series is a proud part of Gretsch's American music legacy. Everyone knows Gretsch electric guitars and drums, but did you know they got their start in 1883 as a banjo company? It wasn't long before Gretsch was making mandolins, ukuleles, and eventually flat-top guitars, contributing to the very roots of American music. So when you play the Gretsch Catalina Maple shell pack, you're playing more than a great kit, you're playing a piece of American music history.
