Authentic Gretsch Heritage and Next-Gen Digital Tech: Gretsch Catalina EVO 4-Piece Electronic Drum Set
Compact Acoustic-Style Mesh Shell Pack with Authentic Gretsch Drum Sound Engine
The Gretsch Catalina EVO 4-Piece Electronic Drum Set brings classic Gretsch drum-building heritage into the modern digital era, combining traditional acoustic looks with advanced electronic performance. Featuring full wooden shells outfitted with 3-ply Gretsch Dynamic Mesh Heads on top and 1-ply mesh heads underneath, the kit delivers an ultra-realistic playing rebound and a true acoustic drum aesthetic.
Designed around a compact footprint ideal for tight spaces and home studios, the 4-piece configuration includes:
- 10x7 rack tom
- 12x12 floor tom
- 14x5.5 snare drum
- 18x12 bass drum
- 3-zone cymbal set (14" hi hat, 16" crash, and 18" ride)
- Gretsch Explorer Hardware Pack
At the center of the kit is the Catalina EVO Drum Module, loaded with high-resolution, multi-velocity samples recorded directly from iconic Gretsch acoustic drum kits. Featuring multiple velocity layers, round robins, and ambient room samples, the sound engine produces an organic, expressive response that reacts naturally to your playing dynamics. Modern connectivity features—including Bluetooth audio and MIDI, USB Audio/MIDI, 10 individual trigger inputs, 4 individual outputs, and compatibility with the dedicated Gretsch Control App—make this kit a powerful command center for practice, multi-track recording, and live stage setups.
