Last May, I posted my 5-piece WMP Fullerton double bass kit here, and thought it would be nice to now share my 1975 8-piece, double bass Fullerton kit. I'm the original owner. All the drums have their original Rogers reso heads, and one bass still has its original batter head (never gigged with the second bass). I special ordered this set-up from Manny's in NY in 1975. These late 9/72 series Fullertons are the last of the script swivo-era Rogers just before the transition to the Big R's. Twin 22" basses with 12, 13, 14, and 15" mounted toms, 16" FT, and a 6½" chrome Dyna. Note the script Dyna already has the Big R style snare gates.
I found the matching 8 & 10" concert toms online about ten years ago and figured all I was missing was an 18" FT to give me the full Rogers tom range. Through C.L., I found a 5-piece Rogers set in black listed as: 24"bass, 13 & 14" toms and an 18" FT. Drove to Long Island, NY to pick it up and was surprised that the FT was actually the rare 20"! That 20" is thunderous! Hope you enjoy the pic.
