Actually, they do look like later Rogers. That appears to be BT lugs and MemL hardware. I will say that they look very ... rough. You might want to check them out with LOTS of reservation on purchasing. There might be more to this than we see. Nothing ventured...

McJ's correct...they are the last version of Rogers, apparently. The shells look to be XP8 shells, not the thin-ply re-ringed ones from better years. Also am gonna guess that those toms hava been wrapped over and the bottom lugholes are still in the shells.

Maybe an OK rehab project, but not worth more than $200...and that's mostly for just the hardware...maybe $300 if a Rogers snare is included

Not Rogers


Island Music made offshore under license from CBS. They were branded Rogers, but ..... they are not USA drums. Dont waste your time or money.

Mid-late 80's luan shells badged as Rogers....like ploughman said....don't waste your time or money....not worth it unless you have an XP8/Memriloc era kit that needs lugs or mounting hardware.....

And even then........depending on if they were some of the first issue Island music........ the lugs might work. But the later stuff, .....is crap, and slightly different.
