I don`t think the renowns had a modern sound.
What I like about the Gretsch is that the notes decay pretty fast
-that fits my playing
The Player Dates have a nive mellow tone to it, I like it also,
but never had the chance to try one, because you can`t find one
in the music stores over here.
From the videos I think the PD has a nice vintage Ludwig vibe...

Had the ec's only as resos for a while... I bet they affected the sound of the shells pretty much.
Hey, my maple craviotto sd is pretty loud with ambassadors - I like the sound,
just want get the volume down a bit. Maybe a powerstroke is the way to go?

try an ambassador x14 for snare batter. its a thicker ply but doesn't choke the drum the way the emperor x and ambassador x does. i've also had good experiences with the controlled sound coated, and just plain old emperor.
the white ludwig was my main kit for a while, but i just was always kinda worried about bringing almost 40 yr old drums on tour. so they just stay at home now and the c&c's take the beating haha
