More from Gretsch about these great kits: **GRETSCH CELEBRATES 125th ANNIVERSARY WITH LIMITED EDITION PROGRESSIVE JAZZ AND BOP KITS** Gretsch Drums proudly celebrates 125 years of “That Great Gretsch Sound” with two limited production Custom kits handcrafted in their Ridgeland, SC workshop. Gretsch’s Progressive Jazz kit is modeled after the classic Gretsch “Birdland” kit from the 1950’s. The Birdland kit was used by some of Gretsch’s past master drummers – most notably Max Roach – and kept as the house kit at the renowned New York City jazz establishment. This kit features classic 6-ply USA Custom shells, the same shells Gretsch has been using since the late 1950’s, and features gold-plated drum hardware. Also included: Traditional jazz sizes, mounted 12” tom, Gretsch Round Badge, Cadillac Green finish and bass drum finished with gold sparkle inlay and vintage T-rods. Sizes: 14 x 20 bass drum, 8 x 12 tom, 14 x 14 floor tom and 4.5 x 14 8-lug snare drum. Retail - $6,145.00 Inspired after their eternally classic Be-bop configuration, Gretsch’s Progressive Bop kit conjures the essence of the many great Gretsch jazz masters. Features include Gretsch classic 6-ply USA Custom shells, traditional be-bop sizes, mounted 12” toms, Gretsch Round Badge and Cadillac Green finish. The bass drum is finished with silver sparkle inlay and vintage T-rods. Sizes: 14 x 18 Bass Drum, 8 x 12 Tom, 14 x 14 Floor Tom and 5 x 14 8-lug snare drum. Retail: $5950 Each of these two kits also contains a uniquely serialized vintage orange/white internal shell label and a special 125th logo affixed over the paint - but underneath the lacquer - on the bass drum shell. Other 125th Anniversary appointments include a Fiberskyn resonant bass drum head with offset Gretsch Drums logo and coated batter/resonant heads with anniversary logos printed on each. 2008 production is limited to 125 total kits (worldwide) for each drum set.
