- Nick D'Virgilio presents the Gretsch Drums Brooklyn four-piece shell pack. The Gretsch Brooklyn 4-piece Shell Pack boasts vintage tone that can only be described as warm, open, and wide. Gretsch drums have been some of the most played and most recorded drum kits in America's musical history, and you'll hear that same character in the Brooklyn 4-piece Shell Pack. Any drummer at Sweetwater will confirm that this shell pack is an exceptional choice for both recording and performing. Its six-ply maple/poplar shells give you impressive attack with full, round fundamentals.

Love that "Got a gig with your in town Afro-Cuban band? Perfect for that!" and then all hell breaks loose..
Is there ANYTHING Nick D can't play on the drums?
@@lajollascott I noticed he didn't play any djent. "Got a gig with your in extreme metal band? Perfect for that!"
Nick is a powerhouse. I have had this kit in cream oyster finish for about 5 years. It sounds great, is easy to tune and the hardware is excellent.
🙌
Holy cow, Nick, you've got those toms sounding incredible!!!! Everything else too. Wow.
Nick does such a great job on all of his product video's....I specifically liked this because of the variety of playing he did on this video
The first rack tom sounds a little too high and thin for me, but that second rack tom might be the best sounding tom I've ever heard. Overall, very nice kit.
Love the Brooklyns, my favourite Gretsch drums.
Unfortunately, they sometimes don’t come with matching Brooklyns snares, which is annoying.
They should come standard with the kit.
If you want to use another snare, that’s fine, but at least provide the matching snare as standard.
People have multiple snares these days anyway.
Brilliant drumming, as always.
Usually can’t go wrong with a silver snare, but I understand 100%
Nick, you always do such great, professional videos. Very inspiring.
Gretsch are such clean sounding drums. You can not hide behind them, get your chops up, and they will be magic for you : )

Kit sounds great, awesome display of playing, great demonstration on all Sweetwater demo's!!😎😎
Killer review Nick. This made me start looking at the Brooklyn as opposed to the Catalina. Awesome stuff. You rock.
nick is the best kind of gretsch fanboy :)
Seeing Nick play so many different style of music on a high end Gretsch kit just feels right. Since Gretsch has been really redesigning their lineup in the last few years, any plans for Sweetwater to do reviews of the redesigns for the Renown RN2, Catalina Club or Energy (and energy street kit)? I'd also love to see Nick go down to their factory to make a tour video and design a USA custom kit.
Sounds great... Nick is the man!
Great sound and playing.
Nick makes all brands sound good, but Gretsch and Ludwig are special.
Roy Beckerman Agree and this is like Gretsch's Ludwig's being they are maple/poplar/maple like Ludwig. The difference is the lug count on the toms and the 30 degree bearing edge. Great combo all around for sure!
Me likey. The sound that kit makes is the sound I like.
Beautiful sound
Nothing in the drum world sounds better than a gretsch 12 with an ambassador 😉👍🏻
Except a 2000s era DW collectors 12" with a dw pinstripe. I had two studio engineers hounding me for years to sell the set to them.
The way he has that 12 inch tom tuned it sounds bigger than a 12 inch drum. It's also tuned perfectly IMHO.
Great video I now want a brooklyn set even more :P
nice playin',Nick...that last track sounds vintage Genesis inspired
Nick is a ventriloquist as well?! AWESOME!
Hi Nick!! Love your videos, you are an amazing player. Here to ask if you could you do an updated video for the new Gretsch Renowns? I like your new recording setup and because the Renowns are the higher line of the "non-USA" kits it would be interesting to have it to make a fair comparison. Thank you!!
Can you do reviews on pork pie drums please
Anyone who likes Nick’s demos has to check out his old band Spock’s Beard...one of the best progressive outfits of the last 30 years. Their discography from The Light through to Feel Euphoria is one of the best, most consistent runs any prog band, period.
How did you tune the heads of the drums? Were the bottom heads tuned higher than the topcs ones? Or vice versa? Your reviews are what I keep watching to determine what kit and snare I'm going to buy next!
Hey Nick you old Pisano great drumming.Drums sound dynamite !
wow ! Sir I really admire you !
My favorite hats are paistes, fav. ride zildjian, fav crashes are sabians as well as zildjian.
One won't endorse all, work for GREAT seller instead, get to use all of them and at the same time have good relationship with all brands. :-) LOVE your drumming fav. drummer ! There are a lot of other GREEAAT!!!!! drummers out there but Nick plays it just my way
Sir, I'm a great fan of you.
- a 15 yr old not so cool dude.
Sick colour 😍
This is my dream kit but generally I don't keen on playing 10 inch toms!Can I chose my own sizes (12,13,16,24)?And do you ship to Greece (not only Gretsch but Paiste and Evans as well, because some stores don't ship outside usa)?
I know that on Gretsch's website they sell add-on drums, and on Sweetwater's website, they sell a 16 inch floor tom for this kit in black oyster, though I'm not sure about where they can ship
Hi there, did you guys used a specific tuning note on each tom?? thanks!
Fer Vallés who cares! Really.
This kit sounds amazing! Mostly cuz of Nick!
WOW!
What snare head is that?🥁🤔
Sound amazing. Any post production or is this a clean recording?
What snare is being used.
There's always some guy that says "That's the best sounding kit I've ever heard"! Ha!
what about price?
Hey yo BROOKLYN!
Does anybody know if there is a lesson on that groove @ 6:55?
1-SNARE-R,2-TOM-L,3-FLOOR TOM-R,4-BASS. like single paraddildle
Actually these are 16th note triplets. He's playing RH, LH, kick, RH, LH, kick....etc. But the RH moves between snare and floor tom. Slow your video down to half speed, clearly triplets.
Man the sweet ride is so Loud
Would have these over DW any day.....cheaper too.
Hey yo Brooklyn! Not everyone in Brooklyn talks like that.
Had Enough That’s your takeaway from this video?
I keep replaying this part - 6:55. And those drums are good for any genre but not awesome for one genre
Is it just me that thinks the 10" sounds choked?
