Designed for players seeking a traditional Gretsch tone with slightly more projection and openness, this set features Gretsch’s proprietary 302 hoops, 30° bearing edges, and the classic Silver Sealer interior coating.

Why Choose the Brooklyn USA Shell Set?

Gretsch’s Brooklyn series combines historic design with modern features. The 6-ply shell provides slightly more mass than the USA Custom line, resulting in added low-end presence while retaining warmth and character. The 302 hoops give a flexible, vintage-style response compared to die-cast. This configuration is a versatile choice for both live and studio work, particularly suited to drummers who prefer undrilled kick drums and classic 4-piece setups.
