You will probably get alot of variety here, as different styles of music warrant different tones and sounds. I just bought a Catalina Maple myself and am in the same process. I already put an EMAD on the bass batter and it sounds incredibly awesome. I am debating whether to go with remo ambassadors on the toms, and am experimenting with one right now on my 14". It sounds very good, much better than the stock Gretsch head. I personally shy away from G2's, Emperors and heavier because I like a little more distinctive tone from my drums than most (which is why I went for the maple to begin with). I did play on some G pluses at GC this past weekend that i kind of like, too. But in short, any name brand head will sound much better than the stock ones.
