Rogers Swivo Spur Mounts?

Posts: 130 Threads: 24

From rillow64

To confuse you even more Lee the 75 degree mounts were also used for toms . I have a 20" and 22" with said mounts for the toms. As far as bass spur mounts the 75's are for 20" and the 60's are for 22" and 24". If you try and mount a 75 on a 22 the spur won't touch the ground...unless it's 2 feet long.(LOL) The mounts on 22" and 24" are placed higher on the shell because of lug spacing so the angel must be lower to point the spur towards the ground. Clear as mud?

Do you mean the 75s are on the tom shells themselves? Not a 90 degree plate? I am working on a replica Keith Moon kit and at some point he started using two Rogers tom mounts on each of his rack toms. It appears that he used one 90 degree plate and one 75 degree plate on each tom to mount the toms to two Rogers double tom holders mounted on one kick and single Rogers tom on the other kick. It requires a crane to move the drum, but the toms are rock solid!! :D

DOHSorry, I thought you were talking about the collets that mount to the bass drum for the tom arm. The 90"s are the only ones mounted on the the toms on Rogers kits that I have seen

Understood. That's what I figured, which makes the Moon mounting approach even more odd. See attached. You can see mounts low on the toms near the front side (these I think are 75s) and there are additional mounts on each tom in the center (these I think are 90s).

Just an FYI on collet plates. Very early Cleveland plates had slightly different mount hole spacings on the long sides. Click on the picture and you can see this in the picture. The plate on the left is from a late 50's Holiday bd.

Otherwise the plates are interchangeable, no matter whichever angle you need.
