Gretsch broadkaster is revamped and is featured with 3-ply
shells that is curated using oversized plies of North American maple. Keeping
the legacy of the 1930’s original broadcaster, it is hand finished with a
reverse roundover bearing edge on the bass drums and toms. There is greater
surface contact between the bearing edge and drum head, as the inside edge of
the shell is placed higher and rounds off down and away to the shell exterior
edge. Finally like any USA-made Gretsch drum, shell interiors are finished with
classic Gretsch Silver Sealer.
