Gretsch Drums introduce the USA Custom Ridgeland Snare drum to their range of snare of drums.
For nearly 40 years, Gretsch Drums have been hand-crafted in Ridgeland, South Carolina. Almost half-inch thick and made from a fusion of woods, this new drum has ‘a sound that is warm, powerful and loud!‘, as the manufacturer states.
The 0.4” shell, made of maple, gum and poplar, features a hybrid bearing edge that combines the classic Gretsch 30-degree edge with an old-school Broadkaster-style roundover. The result is a warm, full-bodied tone with plenty of attack. These new snare drums are equipped with sturdy 4mm die-cast counter hoops, the popular Lightning Throw-Off, 20-strand snare wires and Gretsch Permatone drumheads. Custom made, the Ridgeland Snare Drums are available in 14″ x 5″ and 14″ x 6.5″ sizes and in all Gretsch Nitron, Satin or Gloss Lacquer finishes to match any drum set.
