- "That Great Gretsch Sound" has been around since 1883, join me as I talk with John Sheridan about the full history of this iconic company! John is an expert on Gretsch and co-wrote "The Gretsch Book" with Rob Cook.
John takes us through the 136 year history with amazing facts and stories and also some information that you won't hear anywhere else!
Here is the timeline on the Gretsch websites I used to follow along with John:

I have Ludwig, and I'm a bit of a Ludwig guy, but I do like Gretsch and I'm glad I stumbled upon this podcast. Really great content!
Awesome, thank you!
They’re all great. I own both Ludwig and Gretsch. But the best drums in the world might be Tama and Yamaha because of the crazy high level skills of the company.
@@ramencurry6672 Not even close I have owned both. Gretsch and DW have superior
Depth of sound. Better mid frequency of sound than Japanese drums. Ref Keith Carlock
@@mikestevens5512 well I’ve heard that the best drums in the world are Sonor. Maybe the Germans make the best drums
@@ramencurry6672 Tony Williams Gretsch Max Roach Gretsch, Ludwig, Elvin Gretsch,
Joe Morello Ludwig, Roy Haines Ludwig,
Buddy Rich Ludwig, Philly Joe Gretsch
Bill Stewart Gretsch Vinnie Coluatia Gretsch
Keith Carlock Gretsch. Almost all the best jazz recordings are with Gretsch and Ludwig
I find it surprising that you were unaware of the huge influence Harrison playing a Gretsch on Ed Sullivan had on guitar players, as well as Lennon and his Rickenbacker. I guess it’s a age thing, actually having a mind changing experience seeing The Beatles for the first time anywhere is one reason, but I often wonder why Hofner failed in the same vein.
I enjoy your podcasts btw.🥁
thanks for the info guys!!! love my gretsch drums
swisstripz glad you like it, Gretsch is great! Check out www.drumhistorypodcast.com for more episodes
Alright! How About That Great Gretsch Sound?
Not to Mention That Great Gretsch Secret Glue Formula!!
I Wonder Where That Glue Formula Ended Up When Gretsch Was Bought Out...
One Thing is for Certain, It Sure as Hell Made Those Multi-Ply Veneer Drums Sound Ice-Cold!!! Wouldn't You Agree DW?
Gretsch is quality. And relatively a good bargain too. Top tier level sound for the price of an Apple computer but will last a lifetime.
Yes. And if you’re on a budget, the Gretsch Catalina line is incredible. Bargain of the century in the drum world.
I bought a Gretch bass drum off this stingy old man jazz drummer and the asshole took off the lugs and tom tree off it so all I got are the shell and the wood hoops. Looking on ebay all the hardware is extremely expensive! So I'm wondering if I can find some other hardware to put on there something better than cb700 but can Ludwig hardware fit? I was going to rewrap in gold glitter just need nice lugs and hoop hooks that'll work.
Jeeze, that is not cool! I would check in with the Gretsch or vintage drum facebook groups and see what they think.
