Set the stage with tonal and visual distinction.

The Gretsch Catalina Club Black Widow 4-Piece Shell Pack sets the stage for the modern drum player with tonal and visual distinction. Its mahogany shells pump out deep tones from the extra-deep 20" x 20" bass drum, 6" x 13" snare drum and one up, one down tom setup. It also features Gretsch's GTS suspension system that allows the rack tom to vibrate freely to maximize its tone!

The black hoops and offset lugs complement its overall look. The shells are characterized by a bold look with a thunderous sound. The Gretsch Drums Club Black Widow is a killer drum set for modern clubs.

Just what I wanted!

I bought this set along with a zildjian avedis pack for gigging and for home practicing since I recently moved my monster set to the band's studio. I tuned the set very "jazzy" (high snare, low toms and bass). I just love the sound of it. The snare is powerful and deep, the toms fit very well in sound and size, and you definitely want the bass drum. The finish is kind of delicate, so I bought a set of bags for gigging. I got Gibraltar hardware when you buy this, which is a plus. The DW 5000 double pedal fit perfectly for the black and red details of the pedal, just in case wanted one.

Not worth it...

I bought this set, in a different color, I believe it was the "tattoo" finish. I don't understand all the hype about this set. The tone is very flat. The bass drum sounds half the size it is. The inside of my floor tom shell cracked before a year had passed. I bought the set with the intention to strip off the coating and stain them, but the wood they use looks absolutely HORRID. I am doubting that the shells are 100% mahogany. Save some money and get a Ddrum Dominion, which is very similar but way better. I will never buy a Gretsch product again.

I've had my Black Widow et for about a month now, and I have loved every minute of it! It's the nicest looking set I've seen and the flat black reall makes it stand apart from other glossy sets. The rack tom that adjusts on the cymbal stand allows for any positioning. This way, you can have all the the pieces closer for speed. It sounds just as amazing as it looks! Highly reccomended!

Awesome Kit

I've had this kit for a little over a year now. I walked into Guitar Center for a pair of sticks and walked out with this kit. It wasn't even set up all the way, I was just taken over by the finish. So I asked to finish setting it up and play it, and once I did, it was as good as mine. the toms have that "gretsch sound" and the side cannon of kick will blow you out of the room. The snare is great for a jazzy sound, but lacks that cracking pop. Get this kit!!! So worth it.
