The Gretsch Brooklyn Series snare drum provides you with impressively punchy tone, thanks to its 6-ply North American maple/poplar shell. The contemporary-sounding flavor produced by the Brooklyn snare is beautifully open and ambient, thanks to Gretsch's 302 3mm/double-flanged hoops; however, it still delivers a playing experience that echoes traditional Gretsch USA drums. You also get Gretsch Permatone drumheads, 20-strand snare wire, a Lightning throw off and butt plate, and a snap-in drum key holder. The drummers at Sweetwater agree - the full, warm-sounding Brooklyn Series snare drum yields a modern vibe that remains true to the classic Gretsch sound.
