Is this or is it not Rogers? I've looked this pic over (and a few others) and cannot put my finger on this one. It looks like Rogers, but I've never seen those lugs on a script kit. Input?
Rogers? Lugs? What? Last viewed: 8 seconds ago
There is a reference in The Rogers Book to a ridged bread and butter lug that looked similiar to the 1955 Slingerland lug... the picture is on page 113 in that book. That lug is shown on a low number Cleveland Luxor.
It only mentions and shows a double ended snare lug but... your lug seems to kind of match what the lug would look like single ended.
Might be worth a look... or it might not even be close.

I looked at those, also. I don't see the resemblance. I looked at every pic in that book. It 'sort of' looks like a 380 lug...sort of. This one has stumped me.
The ends (opposite of the threaded end) looks like a Gretsch to me
THAT's what I saw. I know that at times, Slingerland and Gretsch and Rogers all shared equipment. That's what I'm trying to nail down.
Well, how about this? I am looking at these and I want to be certain of what I am getting into. Thanks Michael, for bringing this to the forum. I was thinking about it, but wanted to get your take first. (I highly value your opinion)
Guy says there is a paper tag in the snare, but it is too faded to make out much more than "Rogers", or he just does not know what to look for.

I believe those are B & B lugs.....
Yeah... that looks like the B&B in the book. Drawn brass, 1 1/2" screw spacing.
