This item is an Absolute Mint, never played Gretsch USA Broadkaster 8 x 12 rack tom in the striking Caribbean Blue Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish. I custom ordered this drum in July 2025 from the Gretsch factory in Ridgeland SC through Soundpure when they were a Gretsch Drum Dealer. I thought about adding it to my 4-piece Broadkaster set but decided that I would stay with the original 4 piece configuration. It comes with two factory installed internal mufflers and a Permatone coated batter head and Permatone clear resonant head. If you are looking to expand your Caribbean Blues Gloss Broadkaster set or just want a top of the line Gretsch 8 x 12, this drum is for you. The pictures tell the story! NOTE: MEMORIAL DAY SALE! NEW VERY LOW PRICE. PRICED TO SELL FAST. Per the Gretsch Literature. From the 1920s through the 1950s, Gretsch’s flagship drum set was the legendary Broadkaster series. The thin, three-ply shell produced that original “Great Gretsch Sound”. Drum Center of Portsmouth was influential in the prototyping of the latest iteration of the Gretsch Broadkaster when we visited the folks at Gretsch and discussed the relaunch of this classic line! These new Broadkaster shells are made with a North American maple/poplar/maple formula. Each 6.7mm shell includes an interior-ply scarf joint that adds structural integrity to the thin, musical shells. Like all USA-made Gretsch drums, shell interiors are finished with classic Gretsch Silver Sealer. The bearing edges are an exclusive reverse roundover, which allows greater surface contact with the drumhead. Toms are outfitted with Gretsch’s “302” 3.0mm, double flanged steel hoops. The result is tone that is incredibly deep and warm… Or as we all know it, That Great Gretsch Sound.

The product is a 6-piece Gretsch acoustic drum kit used in advanced level playing. It includes 3 rack toms, 1 floor tom, and a bass drum. It is made of lightweight maple material. The kit is analog and features 5 pads, making it suitable for intermediate to advanced players looking for high-quality sound and performance. The bass drum is missing the resonant head and some of its hardware but can easily be replaced.

This Gretsch 1966 set is in great condition, it has some minor scratches which Ive show in the Photos. Sounds great and I’ve played multiple gigs with this set. Comes with the original Gretsch drum front head for the bass drum.

I believe this is a vintage 60s era Gretsch snare, maple but can’t be 100% sure, perhaps someone can let me know from the badge? Tone control is still on there and comes with 10 lug die cast hoops. Sounds great, wood and hoops in good shape but obviously in used condition, please take a look at the pictures closely. If you’re not interested but know about these snares, please drop me a message so I can share the information with others.

1980’s Gretsch Chrome on Brass Snare Drum. 5.5 x 14 incredible sounding drum. I have only ever used this on recording sessions. Never taken it out of a studio. All original, Die Cast Hoops, Muffler, & Strainer. I have a lightly used Evans Hybrid head. If you’re familiar with those they are basically indestructible.

I have had this Gretsch renown Maple for a while. Only a few gigs always kept in bags. All drums equipped with DIECAST HOOPS. This set did me great and I don’t really want to sell it but I cant keep it right now. Unfortunately on one of my gig, there was a crash cymbal touching my 10 Tom and by time I realized, it was already scratched(See Pics) other than that only consistent wear, however it was kept in good condition. Make me a good offer and it will be yours today. I have 2 extra Kick Drum lugs I’m going to try and find.

20″ x 14″ Bass Drum, 12″ x 8″ rack tom, 14″ x 14″ floor tom… Sounds great on recordings. Sadly misplaced the snare at an out of town gig but will admit it was the weak point of the kit…. The toms and kick punch way above their price range. Was a gigging kit so has a few battle scars, but is still in great condition, does include tom arm holder and the drum heads currently on which are Evans UV2s.
