Rogers R-360 Restoration

Loading...

Greetings,

My friend and bandmate scored some Rogers R-360 Drums and I am helping her with the restoration. It is the "Rock Solid" kit in Blue Oyster from this brochure:

These are all the "before" pictures:

You can see the interesting fade that turned them more of a mint green from the Blue Oyster, which she actually prefers (Mint Green).

The rack tom is done and the floor tom will be done shortly. Nothing Earth shattering going on, just cleaning and polishing the shells, lugs, chrome, new heads, etc.

The rest of the complete kit (snare, pedal, hi-hat stand and snare stand) might still be hanging around, although we're not 100% sure. Just as an indication of interest, anyone have the snare or original hardware for this kit? The cymbal arm is present.

Thanks and I'll post more updated photos of the completed rack and floor toms soon.

Yeah - we would love to see the done pics and indeed what you used on them. Perhaps someone can learn something from your project.

Thanks for sharing!

I have a 380 COS snare, but never had these oval badged in wood (snare).

That BD a 6 or 8lug? 8 I supposed if confirmed to be the Rock Solid kit.

I had a great day! Instead of sleeping in and wasting the day, I got up at 8 and I had all my slacking done by noon!
