Gretsch Catalina Club CC2-J484 is a 4-piece mahogany drum shell pack in Gloss Crimson Burst lacquer with an 18x14 bass drum, 12x8 rack tom, 14x14 floor tom and 14x5 snare. It is built for jazz, club and small-room drummers who want a compact kit with a warm, vintage Gretsch sound. Stands, pedals and cymbals are not included.
Big Gretsch tone in a kit that fits a small stage and a small car.
The Catalina Club has earned worldwide acclaim as a professional-grade kit in a smaller, compact size. Its 7-ply mahogany shells with 30 degree bearing edges give a warm, classic sound, and the 18 inch bass drum keeps the footprint tight for rehearsal rooms and musicians moving club to club.
For 2025 the Catalina Club gets the upgraded low-profile GTS tom suspension for longer sustain and a more open tom sound, and the redesigned Full Range snare throw-off and butt plate for more reliable snare response.

Why Gretsch Drums
Gretsch has built drums in America since 1883, and the round badge is one of the most recognized logos in drumming. The Catalina and Renegade lines bring that sound and look to working drummers, with hardware designed around the Gretsch T-rod wing screw.
