Gretsch Drums Renown RN2-E604 4-Piece Shell Pack - Satin Tobacco Burst

Today’s working drummers need a kit that can do it all—and do it well. Gretsch Renown is one of the most versatile drum sets ever made. Now, with one drum set, you can play with the sensitivity and touch to handle the smoothest grooves of the 1950s; the attack and projection required to drive the most powerful compositions of the 60s and 70s; and the clarity and vibrance needed to faithfully reproduce the clean studio sounds of the 80s, 90s and beyond.

Renown still features the classic 7-ply Gretsch formula maple shells, with 30-degree bearing edges and exclusive “Silver Sealer” interiors. But this Renown comes with a new twist with the addition of the Gretsch's player-friendly “302” hoop—the same hoop used on Gretsch's Brooklyn and Broadkaster series drums. Gretsch 302 hoops produce the desirable focused sound like that of a die cast hoop, but are lighter in weight and less rigid, allowing the drum to better “breath” and achieve maximum resonance. The 2016 Renown delivers the traditional Gretsch sound with an incredible open, harmonic tone that supplies the versatility needed to meet the demands of the hardest working drummers.

Extremely versatile

Gretsch knows that working drummers like you need a kit that can handle a wide variety of styles, and that's exactly what the Renown Series is crafted for. The design allows a balance of nuance and sensitivity, along with power and punch. Whether you're searching for the mellow tones of a vintage kit, the strong tones that fueled '60s rock 'n' roll, or today's clean and clear studio sound, they're all available from the Gretsch Renown Series shells.

Featuring Gretsch's 302 hoops

While the Gretsch Renown Series shells remain true to their original design, their hoops are even better. You'll find these drum shells ring with added resonance and power thanks to their 302 hoops. These hoops emit the same basic character as die-cast, but they are lighter and less rigid. This allows the shells to move and breathe with more freedom. You'll love how clearly you hear the "Great Gretsch Sound" with more of an open and organic tone than ever before.
