Hey Keving;
I have an opportunity to pick up a "Grestch Catelina Jazz" kit for a steal of a price. I just wanted to hear what you thought of them.
The ones I am looking at are WMP like yours, as well as all the same sizes. Yours looks great, and I think it would be a great addition to any drummers arsenal. I thought they would be a great little kit to have on hand.
any inforwould be great!
thanks
matthew

If you can pick one up for a steal i say go for it. The kick drum sounds a lot better than i had expected it to. i snagged some random premier 10x9, 14x14, 20x14 for 175 bucks and I love it. I saw the catalina jazz in a natural wood finish somewhere and personally wish i bought that one

I am pretty sure I will grab it. They guy is selling it for $250. You cant go wrong with that. Plus, It will be my first kit with an 18'' bass drum.

unfortunately drums are one of the more expensive hobbies out there. My current band hasn't recorded yet we are going to do so in feb when my C&C kit that is being built arrives. I would love to have tons of drums to experiment in different tones and tunings but Money is a huge issue i tend to sell gear that isn't 100% nessisary. 18" kick drums can be fantastic, but for rehearsal with my band it was simply not enough. I think 20 is absolutely the most flexible kick drum size, 14" depth for punch 16" for projection. since this is wills forum i'll note that when i saw SLR at the epicentre, his 20" ludwig (thanks to tuning and a good sound guy) sounded all around better than an earlier band using a 22x18.
