I am so sorry to hear that!

A great heavy brass two piece shell in a very desirable size. Attached 1922 catalogue listing. Replacement strainer makes it playable. No extra holes is great! Original banded steel hoops. Like the idea of adding 50’s Ludwig nickel over brass triple flange hoops and playing it! Clean, but...

Nothing to add that hasn’t been said, except be able to get indisputable provenance.

glad your combo worked out for you. I am inclined to say replace the CS head with an ambassador, but if it working fine with the CS, then go with it.

Deeper Rogers drums have a longer throw off handle.

Great stuff and great sounding Rogers!

Had the same issue. Luckily I had the correct size memory lock that works very well. I have also used the aforementioned hose clamp.

A monster drum! I know that drum. Nice to see it again.

Rogers generally began using the clock face strainer during the script badge era. So yes, it would be on your Holiday if it is a script badge. I have seen Eagle badge Holidays that had two different strainers, but not a clock face. However..... It is entirely possible that your Eagle badge...

A lot of anomalies. Tube lugs are not correct, should be a 3 ply shell, and incorrect strainer for an Eagle badge. Would need to see better interior photos to get a better idea as to what is going on.

My guess is someone was trying to remove the yellowing from WMP. They didn’t want vintage drums to look vintage...

The Dream Dark Matter crashes are interesting Cymbals. Read all about them on the Dream site. They are hand forged and hand hammered. Charred finish due to repeated firings that allow the cymbal sound to continue evolving over time. This example weighs 1062 grams and was used briefly for a...

I use a lot of alternative sticks such as cool rods, hot rods, assorted nylon brushes, etc. for a roots project. I have been on the hunt for a 20” ride that responds well to the rods. Looking for a brighter sound that can somewhat be heard. Any thought or suggestions would be appreciated.

At the end of the day, how does the drum play? It is what it is.

Beautiful Bettis 20” Ride Cymbal in like new condition. 1970 grams. See attached YouTube video of exact cymbal. i bought this to use as a general ride, but can’t get away from my 22” rides, so someone should enjoy. The video is very accurate as to sound. Asking $185 plus actual shipping costs.

While finding 15” wires can be challenging, I have had no problem finding 20 strands and even found a nice set of pure sounds.

Beautiful drums and excellent Reverb ad!

Could be employee, could be endorser, could be special order. The norm was flat grey interiors as you know.

Murphy’s oil soap should clean the inside nicely and no harm the wood.

Gramps..... or.... if you have a good artist friend, you could match the color of the head, airbrush over the logo, and have someone reproduce the Jos B Rogers signature.
