Found on Craigslist, central NJ, another Rogers set in need of rescue.
2 x 22, 18, 16, 14, 13, 12 & 10
1980? Island Music?
Some missing and broken parts but the wrap looks good.
Can I get parts?
Would sincerely appreciate your expert knowledge, opinions and recommendations. Thank you!

Parts should be available for the most part. Can tune them and will work decently.
How much?
Rogers parts are plentiful generally. You could easily break that set down into two sets and sell the one you don't want.

All...
I paid $225 for the set.
The guy I bought it from decided he did not want to restore it.
I found it impossible to pass at the price.
Discovering now that this is likely an Island Music era kit.
I read others compare quality to Pearl Export.
Great comment about it being two kits! Made me think...
hmmm... what to do what to do...
Its not worth investing more than a few bucks...
I decided to list it on craiglist for $275.
