A new twist brings the addition of Gretsch’s player-friendly "302" hoops and modernized hardware - the same components used on Gretsch’s Brooklyn and Broadkaster series drums. Spec’d to Sweetwater’s most requested features, this is the only kit in the Renown line to offer a 14x22 virgin bass drum and one-up two-down configuration - making it more versatile and than ever before.

      This Renown is 10/10!! Amazing sound, beautiful lacquer finish, and a shallower kick drum depth than the usual 18" depth which is nice. I may consider this as an option for an upgrade/alternative to what I have now!!

    C.W. I've been a drummer for the past 63 years. Big band, jazz, modern rock and country. My Dad was also the drummer and owner of a Big band in the 1930 to 1960's era. I played Slinger land drums and Ludwig drums , finally bought my 1st Gretsch 1965 round badge 3piece kit. After that I never looked back! 40 years with that kit , now 15 years on my 2nd USA Custom kit still love the Gretsch drums. Yeah!

      One reason why the Renown is really good is because it’s made in Taiwan. Drum factories in Taiwan have a history of excellence. I think it probably started with Pearl drums years ago when Pearl was making them in Taiwan.

I want to get recording I'm 16 and have been playing drums since I was about 4 and I started taking it really seriously around 3 years ago. This is what I think would best fit my playing style for not too expensive. Rn my set up is a vintage ludwig set 12 13 16 18 22 14. And some old vintage cymbals a 22 ride, b20 crash and a piaste 16 rude crash and a 14 bottom piaste high hat I use as a crash cuz my old one broke it was a b20 crash ride. I live my current set up but it's somewhat uncomfortable I cant get it dialed right and it takes constant care because the drums are so old. I'm always fixing a problem. Cant wait to get this setup.

    Silver sealer!! That's been inside the drums since the 60's. I've heard that it's galvanized fence paint? I think they used it originally to hide knots inside the inner ply. And it became a sound. Ludwig painted theirs white too for a while. I think it hadose to do with cosmetic looks. But it does add something to gretschs sound.

Please play it as it comes out of the box for the full Gretsch sound. Other than that Great job 🙂 on the drumming! Charlie M.
