General

This ready-to-play Gretsch drum kit is ideal for beginning drummers. The shells are made of poplar, ensuring excellent resonance (which is important for the sound of your drums), and are equipped with Evans (Gretsch by Evans) drumheads, which are durable and provide a pleasant sound. The 22-inch bass drum has a rich and exceptionally low tone, which is why Gretsch have selected a 16-inch floor tom to accompany it, providing a nice transition. Thanks to the addition of a 10-inch and a 12-inch tom, this drum kit creates a well-balanced overall tone.

Cymbals and hardware in perfect harmony

This great Gretsch drum kit is supplied with complete hardware and cymbal sets. The hardware is manufactured by Gibraltar and is equipped with a chrome finish and nylon inserts, which prevent your stands from getting damaged when they are being extended. The stands are fitted with rubber anti-slip caps, providing stability and ensuring that the stands stay in place when you're playing. The included cymbals are manufactured by Sabian. The Sabian SBR set is a well-balanced package that consists of cymbals with a great, clear sound that complement each other perfectly.

Many extras for little money

The Liquid Black colour of this complete Gretsch drum kit is a fantastic match for the chrome-plated hardware, creating a neat overall appearance. The included Gretsch stands allow you to optimally position your toms and feature a memory lock system that 'remembers' the ideal settings, which means you only have to adjust your drum kit once.

Wrote the following about Gretsch Drums GS2-E8256K-LB GS2-series drum kit

Je suis batteur débutant. C'est une belle batterie, le seul reproche que je fais est le support des 2 toms. C'est une tige en acier dans une boule en caoutchouc, mais qui bouge quand même lorsque c'est serré au plus fort.
Le pac de symbales Sabian est evidemment un bas de gamme et j'ai dû changé le hi hat qui est a un bruit de casserole !
Je ne regrette pas mon achat, c'est une batterie d'entrée de gamme d'une bonne marque.

Limited Edition Gretsch Jim Dandy

Wednesday 9 March 2016 By Richard | Bax Music

That the Gretsch G9500 Jim Dandy is still as popular as ever is no surprise. It's a lovely, attractively priced parlour-style guitar that makes you think of the early Delta Blues. An instrument like this really doesn't need to be changed. Gretsch do bring out limited editions of this model in different colours every now and then however, just like this G9500 Jim Dandy Barn Wood Burst.
