Japanese Drums - Organization of names and badges

Loading...

After making a post about my MIJ Rocket snare drum I realized that it wasn't on the list of MIJ names on the Vintage Drum Guide. I decided to pull out the list I've been compiling for years ( anytime I see a MIJ snare, I check my list of names ) and I appear to have 19. I'm pretty sure I didn't accidentally put a UK name in there. But here is what I have ,

Tulio

Rocket

Leban

Norma

Topper

Musketeer

Kimberly

Jet

Cortley

Marlin

Sorento

Howard

Van Hall

Lotus

Marveltone

Stingray

Multishine

Zen-on

Recco

If any of these aren't MIJ, my apologies and please let me know so I can update my list. I'll have to track them down, but I also tried to save badge photos as well.

Hi BenJammin, maybe this post is better in it's own thread over in the Vintage non-USA drums?I couldn't help you simply from those photos- a close up shot of the badge showing the serial # would definitely help identifying Yamaha drums. A shot of the interior shell of one of the toms or bass drum also would help. Good luck and thanksSumo DudeSumo

Hi, Im sorry for such a delay in responding and thank you kindly in advance for any insight you may have. Here are 2 pics of 2 diff badges on the kit. The kit was rewrapped and lugs were also rechromed but the badges show original age.

Sent this one on to our Webmaster Dave in an e-mail.

Did not see it posted any where and I believe it is a MIJ drum.
