About the Artist

Dan Duggins is a drummer that is not easily defined. His talents are broad and diversified. Studying formally in both classical percussion and drum set performance at Virginia Commonwealth University and Berklee College of Music, his style is tasteful and well informed. He has performed and toured mostly with “indie rock” style acts, but is now living in NYC and finds himself pursuing many other musical outlets. Currently performing with the piano rock outfit The Queen Killing Kings and the eclectic world/pop/rock group Zigmat, he doesn’t hesitate to have many other working projects. This includes the recent assembly of a new improvisational style group with a few carefully selected musicians in the VA area. In addition to his performance work, he also teaches privately on a regular basis in VA and NYC and is in the process of putting the finishing touches on two method books. One, being a simple yet well organized crash course to popular drumming, and the other a joint effort with two established NY drummers. Among all these accomplishments, Dan is in the process of finalizing an original design for a new tom mounting system. There are no definite plans for its debut but it promises to turn some heads in the near future.

Catalina Maple

Carefully developed to produce tones that explode a balanced amount of warm low end frequencies

The Catalina Maple series starts with the Gretsch maple formula shell. We carefully developed the maple shell specification to produce tones that explode with attack and volume and project a balanced amount of warm, low-end frequencies. All Catalina Maple shells are 7-ply, 7.2mm.

The Catalina Maples are available in two configurations - a 6-piece shell pack set and a 5-piece shell pack set. Add-on drums are also available to allow for further drum set expansion.
