Hello all,
Picked up a few old Rogers shells (hence my first post to the forum) and I'm trying to put together a 'players kit'. I don't need perfect condition or period correct but I don't want to drill any holes. The easy: 20" Holiday kick - missing nine large beaver tail lugs (2 1/4" spacing) and both spurs (mount, hex spur + collet). Might be interested in hoops as well. 12x8" Holiday rack tom - missing all 12 small beaver tail lugs (1 3/4" spacing) The not-so-easy: 16x16" Holiday floor tom - missing all 16 bread and butter lugs (2 1/8" spacing) and legs (mounting plates & hex legs).. This is the drum I really want/need but those BnBs are giving me the willies. I'd be willing to do the metal epoxy work on cracked ones. Let me know if you've got anything via a PM. Thanks, Brett |

![]() ![]() what color inlays do you need in the hoops? I have lots of Beavertail lugs...what year are your drums? THINK I still have some large B and B lugs too...but need to check (all with some splits,of course!)

Thanks-
The Holiday kick was an awful re-wrap that I pulled (felt like counter top material). If I can get the floor tom working I'd wrap the kick and rack tom to match; blue glass sparkle. Kick was painted black inside with no paper label. Existing large beaver tails are spring-type. Had a standard script logo but no idea if original. Kick and rack could be from the same original kit as they had the same badges and the same awful re-wrap. Rack - Cleveland tag, serial #60968 Floor - Cleveland tag, serial #12599 (w/ pirate script logo) B Last edited by bhammond; 02-03-2014 at 09:36 PM. |

They do seem rather sturdy and all have felt, I believe.
I'm not looking for a proper restoration so a big price differential between lug types would lead me towards the later beaver tail versions (although springs over clips, I think). The BnBs are higher on my priority list too as that's the drum I'd really like to get working. I completed a 20" Tower (silver sparkle, cleveland, mid-60s?) which I am digging so the 20" Holiday isn't pressing. |

The heavy lugs make the drums sound better for some reason though!
I have some pitted heavy ones also I can sale...so price goes down.. I have lighter ones too.. call is yours....

Yeah, I can imagine that. Preferable to keep everything roughly equivalent as well. Let me know what you've got and the price you need and we'll take it from there.
