Gretsch Drums is celebrating its 140th anniversary with its Limited Edition 140th Anniversary Drum Kit. Each one of the kits is constructed to honor the company’s legacy and offers drummers a collectible piece of Gretsch history. The one-of-a-kind kit is handcrafted in the company’s Ridgeland, South Carolina, factory using six-ply hybrid maple, gum and poplar shells and finished in an Ebony Stardust gloss lacquer. The 140th anniversary drum kits also feature 30-degree bearing edges and Gretsch Permatone commemorative 140th logo drumheads. Each kit is shipped with a set of custom-designed drum bags and a certificate of authenticity signed by Fred Gretsch and the artisans who built them.
