Gretsch Renown RN2-E8246 2016 - 4 shells - copper sparkle

Featuring the classic 7-ply Gretsch formula Maple shells, with 30-degree bearing edges and exclusive “Silver Sealer” interiors, GRETSCH Renown RN2-E8246 2016 (Copper Sparkle) is a very versatile drum set. It allows you to 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 70, and the clarity and vibrance needed to faithfully reproduce the clean studio sounds of the 80s, 90s and beyond.

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.
