3 pc. Rogers set from around 1976?

Loading...

Hello all, I would love to have your opinions on what this set is worth (approx.)

They're a little beat up, we bought them for my daughter years ago from a friend who told us they were "vintage" but didn't think much of it. Now we're wondering if they're worth much at all...Thanks for any help!

Neat old drums. Those are Rogers Big R and without seeing any more detail in the single small pic you posted ... they appear to be an obviously incomplete set. They also appear to be decent shells. You would need to give some better pics for serious detail on your kit.

I will say that Rogers Big R kits are not bringing in the dough ... at the moment. For the bass and the two toms, only a couple of hundred. The snare is a wild variable because we can't see it. Cymbals are unknown.

Hello mr. snare. You look interesting.

Thanks for the reply! Sorry for the small pic...I will try to get some more up soon! The snare was bought separately, it's an Evans. The cymbals are fairly new and are Sabian. I don't know much about drums, sorry! I had listed the whole set at $200 on craigslist...not sure if that is reasonable or if I am WAY off the mark! I got some inquiries about them but I want to make sure I'm in the right ballpark before I let them go.

Ballparks be darned. We can't tell if you're in the major, the minor, or the little league. We need better pics. Sabian made many different lines of cymbals. That's crucial to know. Evans (as far as I know) didn't make a snare. Just a bit more stuff needed.

Sabians look like B8s, if I can read...

Thanks baton blanc. I couldn't make that out. Yes, B8's don't go for much on the ol' resell party line. Still, without knowing anything about the drums, and considering the cymbal info provided ... just a couple of hundred is all I see. If there's something special about the snare, maybe more. If not ... then not.

"baton blanc" ... as in "white stick" ... as in, the white cane for the blind. You were the guide for my blindness. I couldn't read the dang thing. Thanks.

...well, leading the blind is an exercise in futility for me, as I am the most blind, according to other here...but thanks!

I can guarantee you that the bass drum alone is worth over 250.00, the toms alone should fetch another 150 to 200 each. As for the cymbals and stands.....approx. 150 to 250 for the lot. If the set is incomplete as shown on the pic, I recommend you sell the pieces separately on e-bay.
