Dynasonic on Craigslist

Loading...

Anytime I travel I look at the Craigslist of the city I'll be in. This time I've come across a Ludwig kit with a Dynasonic. The seller is asking $400 for the everything, which from what I can tell might be a good price for the Dyna alone if it were in great condition.

I don't know jack about Rogers, so all I can tell is that it has beavertail lugs, and therefore it's a two-bead, five-line COB shell a round, white muffler. Did the Rogers muffler change shape or color at any point? Did the the gates on the snare cradle ever change? Do these features point to any specific time period?

Are the snare cradles difficult to find in working (or even original) condition, or find replacement parts for? Or would I be tracking down parts over time if these wires are barely hanging on?

Looking at that picture ,the Dyna is definitely not stock.

Big Bang distribution has everything you would need to restore the Dyna.

Thanks, pgm. What are you seeing that tells you it’s not stock? The only thing jumping out at me is the strap on the snares.

Zach,

Hard to give a lot of details about that particular Dyna from that picture alone. Those gates on the snare/reso hoop are the "Big R" style which first appeared on the Fullerton-era script badged Dyna's around 1974 and then later appear on all the Big-R Dyna's after 1976. Would be nice to see the other side of that snare to see if it's a script badge or Big R badge. Either way, it's still a nice chrome over brass snare and would sound great once it gets a replacement snare frame.

Post more pics if you end up buying it.
