What We Think

Gretsch's Brooklyn series of drum kits are reminiscent of an earlier era thanks to the inclusion of a few retro features certain to please Gretsch purists.  This kit's 6-ply maple/poplar hybrid shell is designed to be punchy yet warm, and it does just that.  

Built in the USA, Gretsch's new Brooklyn mixes the vintage and the new in a pleasing cocktail that offers a real alternative pro-line Gretsch at a more competitive price. Vintage sounds with modern design touches. Also includes the original Brooklyn Round badge. Beautiful, well-rounded kit.

Manufacturer's Description from Gretsch Drums

Proudly hand crafted in Ridgeland, South Carolina, USA, by a team of veteran drum builders, Gretsch Brooklyn has a sound that is at once recognizable and essential, yet distinctively reinvented. The Gretsch drum design team molded the Brooklyn series by combining classic Gretsch elements while infusing it with new attributes. They expanded upon traditional drum designs to shape a sound that retains fundamental Gretsch characteristics while projecting a fresh voice.
