Tommy Ramone's Rogers Drums

Posts: 1625 Threads: 294

I'm trying to put together an "authentic" Tommy Ramone kit. By that I mean same sizes that he played, same color--minus installing the Tama mounting hardware. Best I can see is he started out playing a 22/13/16 NE White 9/72 era kit then went up to a 22/14/18 kit with the 16 as a second floor towel rest ala buddy, then to big R also NE white and possibly going 15 on the mounted tom, 18 floor, 22 bass. This seems to be the kit marky took over.

This seemed all well and good till I saw this pic today. Is that just a crazy filter or is this kit I thought was white the whole time actually new blonde?

Any people with legit info on this would really help me out! Thanks!

Adam

Apparently he had both. I see three different toms too. the smallest has a Rogers slant badge next to the mount. Notice an external damper, (will make different sound than factory one.) Remo black dot 70`s heads.

Some more, Look at tom mount location, badge location. Typical pothead, why not buy concert toms ? The yammy kit may be a house kit/studio kit. I don`t know.

I guess this is the kit he passed on to Mary after leaving the band.
