Mark's sound is one of the reasons I bought a Gretsch after 30 years of paying dues on a 30 year old entry level set. It is a 2013 USA Custom in bop sizes. It belonged to Freda Love who played with Juliana Hatfield in the 1990s. No regrets at all. I can barely look at it some weeks because it is such an amazing instrument. But I hall it out every week to play with the same amateur crew I've played with for 15 years. This thing feels like a collectors item. Like future antique furniture or sculpture, even if you don't play. It's art.
Just realized I got to see him play that night with the fresh shells. They totally melted my face, I was in awe! The sound and sensitity of the drums were incredible.
Weirdly enough this is the same you get from a 24" or above, both at the opposite size. Makes me wonder if I want to continue using bigger bass drums after all...!
@@jas_bataille only if you do Jazz Tuning and suffocate the Bass drum, to me a Standard Bass Drum is 24" , a 22" is small. my Gretsch Broadcaster Bass can do a lot more than that, a 16 or 18 has limits and no range.
Yes!! This is my dream kit, I will own a Gretsch Broadkaster sooner or later! Definitely getting the direct to shell mount! I hate thos free standing toms
@@conscious___creators I can tell you as the proud owner of a Broadkaster bop kit that it is worth every penny. They are the best set of drums I have ever owned without question and sound great with what I do. I hope you get to own your own Broadkaster real soon and enjoy them for years to come as every drummer deserves to own the kit of their dreams. With this though, if you plan on ordering your custom Broadkaster soon, expect a long wait as they are backed up on custom orders due to COVID. I have a couple of additional Broadkaster drums that I ordered back in October and they will not be here until January if not later.
If you have a 16" floor tom, you can convert it to a bass drum. Saves you a bunch of money and still sounds great! Look up the vid "what if I don't wanna play the cajon" by Harry Miree
Bebop kits are fantastic. For the one rack Tom only kit, it would be interesting to alternate with different rack Tom brands to change the sound a little bit.
One thing I noticed after watching this video many times is that the wood snare and toms were custom ordered without tone controls. The bass drums have tone controls front and back and the COB snare doesn't come from the factory with one.
Consider a bayan (low tabla drum) or timpani, all off-center hits though they are single head bowl drums. Some argue this is a sweet spot, even in 26’’ BDs
I just saw this now. Never heard of the drummer. Both he + the kit sound great. That small kick sounds fantastic. Thanks + keep up the great work ! Best Wishes to all.
So I've been saving up for a kit that will be a long term investment, but I just couldn't choose the sound. Given the Connor Dennis video and this one, I'm pretty convinced.
Amazing color..Dear Gretsch you can Help me please, i have to buy the USA drum kits i love this color, you can tel me please the finish name thank you !!!
Must be so much easier to cart around to a gig. Beautiful colour. Better than Ludwig Breakbeats....much more expensive, however. Are these USA Customs.
Wow very impressive sounding drums. With all respect to all modern designed drums, the vintage brands always exceeds in sound quality and build and in finishes. These drums are timeless, just like artist like Elvin Jones. What model are threse and where can I buy a bebop kit like this???
Cool, thanks. I was thinking 6000 since that's the hardware set he's using. I just need a new pedal and can't decide what I want to get. I want something that's ultra-simple... not a bunch of bells & whistles.
DW 6000 is very similar to the original Camco 5000 that DW started to make. I haven't tried one but the 5000's I've tried have been lovely, I think I prefer the larger footprint of the floor plate but they're similar cam wise. Yamaha are great for simple pedals that just work out of the box. Their hardware is very well made.
Ah! I had forgotten about Yamaha. I'll check those out. I currently have a 1990's DW5000, an Iron Cobra, an old Speed King, and a few other entry level pedals. I like the minimalist look of the Sonor JoJo pedal, but it doesn't seem to get great reviews. The search continues. Tough to beat DW though.
in a much older clip he said that he would use any standart pedal available. even the drums. when he is on the road, the most important part of his sound are his cymbals which he carrying all over the world.
he said the bass drum was 12 x 16"... their site says they only do a 14 x 16" must be the Mark Guiliana special, right? or did he make a mistake..? perks of being one of the best drummers in the world!
@@gretschdrumsusa awesome thanks for clarifying! I am looking to purchase a custom order from Australia what is the best way to get in contact and clarify a few things? Is mark's 16" Bass drum resonant head called the offset? and the Larger Bass Drum with the massive "T" on the logo the 12:00 Gretsch Logo? I have more questions.. is there a best contact? Thank you Gretsch Fam! :)
@@gretschdrumsusa is this Broadkaster snare an 8 lug or 10 lug he's using? and do the bass drums come standard with these claw hooks to easily tune the drum? are they the "T Rods"? the website is a bit confusing... it has both these listed so are they 2 options or they include both for the drum? (Classic Chrome Die Cast Claw Hooks with Padding Chrome T-Rods) Thank you again!
The guy in the vid says "white satin flame", which I don't think exist. I think it is white marine pearl (but I may be wrong), which seems to be available for USA and Broadcaster.
OHRID I don't care what you/people think. I don't expect you to care about what I think. That's just my opinion; he'd be better of with another company.

Yeah. He had this kit in Seattle Wednesday night. Well, most of it. No rack tom. Beat Music.
The 16" sounds killer with the beater striking far above center. I love that Mark plays jazz with a muffled bass drum. Sounds very contemporary
I see the felt strips under both reso and batter heads, but it doesn't sound that muffled does it? It just sounds amazing.
Yeah, it looks almost like the beater is at utmost top of the drum. That's the coolest 16 inch bass drum I've ever seen.
Weirdly enough this is the same you get from a 24" or above, both at the opposite size. Makes me wonder if I want to continue using bigger bass drums after all...!

Let alone if you are miced.
Gretsch drums, Sabian Cymbals and DW Hardware. Essentially my dream drum set up
Ethan Hamilton Whoa! I have that!
That 16" bass drum makes me want to join a small jazz combo just so I have an excuse to get that drum.
The 16" bass drum sounds amazing my friend, it's very versatile
That kick drum sound unbelievable
I LIKE the "direct to shell" mounting!

There's nothing like the astounding sound of a Gretsch kit! Bravo!
Andrew Shreeve is probably the best person I've ever worked with in the music world. I can't say enough kind things about both of these individuals.
so proud to be in the Gretsch Family
Small kit...big sound.
Beautiful.
Damn you Mark.. now I want a bepop kit 😭
That's how they gitcha!

I play gretsch drums and love them.
Great neat size to carry around.
Great sound and playing.
Daaaaaamn! Nice drums. Beautiful looking drums!
That 16" sounds HUGE. This video to me proves why you don't HAVE to have a riser on smaller bass drums. Hitting off center isn't a bad thing.
handidrummed Udo Masshoff advises offsetting the kick beater on all bass drums. In my experience he’s correct. 🥁✌🏽g

These drums are just singing so great!!! 😍
Wow the sound of the main set is great
Sounds great he makes em sing that's for sure !!
There's no lame riser under the kick. Awseome!
you can just skip adding the riser? If so why wouldnt everyone do this? I dont like the riser either ...
BEAUTIFUL, NICE MARK CONGRATS ON THAT KILLER SET
woooow ... that sound of the toms !!!!!!
Man oh man he is always so good
Gretsch drums are amazing for any and all types of music.
Just throwing an idea out here Gretsch!! A Catalina club kit with a 16x14 bass drum, 10x8 rack tom, 14x14 floor tom.
I've never clicked on anything so fast.
Yeah! No $hit!! :)
Beautiful drums.
holy shit. this sounds amazing. he has great feel on that tiny ass kit
Beauty ...the awesome Giuliani
Nice looking kit
I was expecting to see him coming out of a box.
Yees love Mark, this is great!
Kick nice and rich sounds great .
I better go practice
We all better. Love it!
I keep coming back to this video. This kit sounds so incredible. Is he using that 16" kick without a riser?
David Epstein yup
hahaha me too! It's become like a daily mantra!
Would like to have seen him use the COB snare , as well.
I love it, I want my new Gretsch Brooklyn kit 😭😭😭
So I've been saving up for a kit that will be a long term investment, but I just couldn't choose the sound. Given the Connor Dennis video and this one, I'm pretty convinced.
That 12x16 is adorable
Gretsch should start making 16-inch bass drums more available because of this.
We've offered them for years. :-)
I came here to make the same comment. Can we get 16s back in the Catalina line?
Now there's a handsome drum set if there ever was one...
que buen kit, conlas sordinas, le da una estetica fantastica.
Love!
4:15 sounds like that sampled Meters beat
Amazing color..Dear Gretsch you can Help me please, i have to buy the USA drum kits i love this color, you can tel me please the finish name thank you !!!
Looks like a gretchuation !
Fuck Yeah!
Beautiful kit, I think I'll have to buy me a jazz kit this tax return season. lol What was the name of the tune played at the very end?
Beautiful! So what are all the dimensions?
Sounds amazing. Have you tried a Dixon bass drum lift? I use it all the time with my 18" bass drum. Perfect angle, better sound, and protects the rim.
Must be so much easier to cart around to a gig.
Beautiful colour.
Better than Ludwig Breakbeats....much more expensive, however.
Are these USA Customs.
Broadkaster my man! I've got a breakbeats they're like 1/8th of the price! Gretsch are way better!
I especially love the finish. By the way, what is the series of this kit?? Brooklyn? USA Custom?
Pretty sure this is Broadcaster! Brooklyn does not come with 16 kick .
It's a Broadkaster ;)
@@hopevaleriote9708 Oh thought it was the Brooklyn Micro Kit ....
Ooooohh Boxes!!
Wow very impressive sounding drums. With all respect to all modern designed drums, the vintage brands always exceeds in sound quality and build and in finishes. These drums are timeless, just like artist like Elvin Jones.
What model are threse and where can I buy a bebop kit like this???
Thats what I want to know!
Nice set. How much?
If I ever get endorsed, I will choose gretsch. I already have a set of gretsch tho.
Yesssslove
That jacket !!!
they sound great no 16 kick for me though looks like a toy but hey whatever ya like
Johnny Merritt true. It’s definitely great for the right player, right gig, room ect. Not a bass drum for every gig just perfect for what he plays 👍
Cool stuff the 16" BD ! Are there some cuts in the recording? There are different pitches in the BD!?!
What's the name of the tune?
Can someone post a link with Mark playing a piece with swung 8th's? I've just not seen/heard much from him doing that feel...
Nice nice, KANSAS CITY KATZ JACKET
IS it a buyable drum??
What is the bass drum mount and tom bracket option here?
www.gretschdrums.com/drums/broadkaster
Can anyone tell me or wager a guess what bass drum pedal Guiliana is using in this clip? Or what pedal he usually uses? Thanks in advance.
Think he tends to use a DW 5000. That looks like it might be a 6000 though.
Cool, thanks. I was thinking 6000 since that's the hardware set he's using. I just need a new pedal and can't decide what I want to get. I want something that's ultra-simple... not a bunch of bells & whistles.

is that second bass a 20" or 22"?
What did he say the finish was on Mark's kit?
White Satin Flame
That KICK.....what mics (camera mics?) were used to capture this?
A single Shure MV88 Lightning Stereo Mic into an iPad for the drums in both the rehearsal facility and the club.
would Gretsch ever make a 16 x 12 kick available for purchase?
You can get it custom ordered through a retailer, I did
What is The music at The end ?? Thàk you !!
And mark i love you
From what I gather, it is a tune called "inter-are." th-cam.com/video/6qemmqkfcXw/w-d-xo.html
How does he tune that snare ?
he said the bass drum was 12 x 16"... their site says they only do a 14 x 16" must be the Mark Guiliana special, right? or did he make a mistake..? perks of being one of the best drummers in the world!

What song are they playing?
I can tell if the kick is tuned high or low!!! Help?
Its kind of medium tension.....
hi! whats the big bass drum size? thks!
Which color is this? I dont see it on the website.
Hi,
They mention it in the video. White Satin Flame. 😀
@@gretschdrumsusa Yes, I searched the website for White Satin Flame but doesnt seem like the Broadkasters have them as an option. No worries.
It's longer active. 😞
Where this live was held ?
Anyone venture a guess on the size of the larger bass?
14 x 22
That finish is available on the USA Custom Line?
The guy in the vid says "white satin flame", which I don't think exist. I think it is white marine pearl (but I may be wrong), which seems to be available for USA and Broadcaster.
Hi!!! There are satin flame finishes in white, black, and blue, which are different from marine pearls that come in white and black.
And you can order them in USA Custom and Broadkaster…
It makes you wonder, why DWs are so expensive.
They're pretty similarly priced as both are Custom made drums. :-)
Please , does anybody know the exact sizes?
8 x 12 tom, 14 x 14 floor tom, 12 x 16 kick, 5.5 x 14 snare i believe
The greats only need a 4 piece kit....not a zillion drums and cymbals.
omg
What Gretsch series?
broadkaster ;)
The bomb
What sizes...very small.
8 x 12 tom, 14 x 14 floor tom, 12 x 16 kick, 5.5 x 14 snare i believe
Do they put the heads on for you?
yes at the Factory
3:35
What song did they play?
inter-are from the "Jersey" album
The only people who can actually afford these drums get them given to them for free, pretty ironic……
Must be nice
I wish he'd try meinl. Or any other serious cymbals maker.
OHRID I don't care what you/people think. I don't expect you to care about what I think. That's just my opinion; he'd be better of with another company.
And to be fair, try rereading my comment, did I say what you say I said. Don't think so.
dam :(
