True....OK,,How about him getting Cleve or Daytons only?

That's all I buy....

And..only EARLY Daytons.....for me ,anyway.....

Not flat grey..no way!

Gee I guess my Cleve WMP 22-16-16-13-14s is junk? I'll put it out on the curb with the recycles and look for a 20-14-12 few streets over. Coffee Break2Coffee Break2

FFR428, you must have misunderstood. Nobody here bashed the Cleveland Rogers drums, or those sizes.

Those are the cream of the crop for Rogers drums!

I have a Cleveland 20,12,14 all original.. Silver Sparkle Kit.. I would be willing to sell. Let me know if your interested. Once you play a Rogers in these sizes, the game is over. I've owned nearly everything out there.. This is the setup.

Don`t jump onto that ship,.....it sank.......

I know Matt just kidding a bit. :)

I just joined this thread because i miss my Piano black Rogers Fullerton kit that i had sold like a monumental imbecile.. One of the best kits i've ever owned.. Bought it for $450 Cdn and sold it for $800 2 years later.. Worth a lot more than that now.. Enjoy your future Rogers kit..

My favorite Rogers is Dayton. Very nice sharper edges and the best hardware. That being said for a kit to play you won't go wrong with script badge Fullerton. I played out two different Celebrity kits; a Cleveland and Dayton. I really preferred the Dayton's slightly more focused initial attack.

Think about it; slightly undersized shells (heads could float) clean edges and hardware ahead of its time. It took a lot of modern drum companies a while to crack this code and Rogers did it arguably by the 60's.

You can`t go wrong with any of the above recommendations and all sizes sound amazing in Rogers from the mid-late 60`s.They were on top of their game at this point and not many others could compete and that`s why you paid more $ for Rogers at that time and worth every penny.Tremendous drums!!!
