I must say when I was thinking of buying a high end kit I was always thinking Tama Starclassic / Pearl Masters, but after buying my Catalina Birch (fantastic kit for the price, sound a lot better than the Pearl BRX's in the shop . . .) I'm really tempted to go for a Gretsch USA Custom when I next buy a kit.
