they are beautiful

unfortunately the extra holes , the rerwrap and the B&B lugs devalue the drums ... unless there are zero cracks on the B&B then the value can go through the roof

if that kit was collector grade it would be worth a good amount ... but a players kit with B&B lugs just doesn't hold the value because to play it you would most likely have to replace them with the reissue B&B lugs

the kit is gorgeous and someone would definitely buy it ... but I say keep it

Okay, so I got only one response. I am concluding that everyone else believes the same? If so, would you venture a dollar value, too, please?

Thanks!

I'm gonna ballpark just under $1k. If you listed these for $1200 and negotiated with someone interested in buying them, you would probably get $900-$1000 for them.

Rogers drums built in Covington originally came in glass glitter, not sparkle, so since these have been rewrapped in sparkle, that could hurt the value a bit. I have a 1959 kit in blue glitter, and the correct blue glitter is darker and deeper than the JamminSam sparkle wrap.

Opinion towards B&B lugs have gotten more positive as of recent. They used to be worth very little due to them breaking and having no easy means of repair. Since Rogers re-introduced B&B lugs with the new Dynasonics, they have started to get a little bit more popular.

You have a beautiful kit, though! These Eagle badge drums sound fantastic, you have a wonderful recording/gigging kit, which I have done with my kit as well. Take care of 'em and enjoy 'em! If you do end up selling, expect $1k +/- $300. At least that's what I think!

Last year I sold an original Blue Onyx 5 piece with snare for $1200.

Thinking with rewrap, and very much depending on the condition of the lugs, somewhere around $750.

Thanks, fellas. If I do sell them, I’ll ask a little less, since the bearing edge has been monkeyed with and a lot of the tension rods are a little rusty. If I do decide to sell them, I would likely post it here first.

Thanks again.
