Gretsch USA Broadkaster Snare 14x6.5in, 60s Marine Pearl Overview
Gretsch USA Broadkaster 14x6.5in Snare, 60s Marine Pearl
From the 1920s through the 1950s, Gretsch flagship drum set was the legendary Broadkaster Series.
This Exclusive 4-ply shell is modelled on Paul Coopers own 1962 Broadkaster snare drum.
Broadkaster shells are made with a North American maple/poplar/maple formula. Each shell includes an interior-ply scarf joint that supplies added structural integrity to thin, musical shells. Like all USA-made Gretsch drums, shell interiors are finished with classic Gretsch Silver Sealer. The shell is hand finished with the exclusive reverse roundover bearing edge, which allows greater surface contact between the bearing edge and drumhead. The result is tone that is incredibly deep and warmth.
