I've been to John Dorns house and he not only showed me what he was selling, but took me to the back room where he kept his collection. There must had been at least 20 kits in there and every one looked like it just rolled out of the factory door. Thanks for a great video.

FYI on the tom mounts they are only supposed to have 2 set screws not 4 . They are designed to work with 2 and actually won't hold as well with the 4 . Cool vid I just wanted to point that out .

Here's a picture showing how the two set screws are positioned for the Swivo arm. You are able to turn the hex shaft so that two of the holes are opposite the direction that the upper shaft enters the tom.

So however you have the drum positioned you can put the screws in any two holes to have better accessibility to tighten or loosen them . Depending on the position of the drum it may be in the way of easily getting to them .

A lot of people see 4 holes and think it needs 4 screws it is super common . But was designed to work with only the 2 . Again cool video and killer sets of drums you feature .

Great information on rogersdrums. I own a rogers holiday kit with bread and butter lugs I play out this kit a lot of the lugs are delicate but I tryto be as careful as I can I play with a rock and roll band so the tuning is in the middle lows so that helps but what I noticed about the shells all flat gray interiors with sharp 45 degree edges Cleveland tags tallboy hoops and die stamped initials. Fw on the re rings its really faded wmp. But man do they sound good do you have any info on. Why the sharp edges on these shells with those lugs and hoops . I paid 40dollars for them at a garage sale 22 13. 16. Thanks again for your informativevideo
