Some of y'all know that I have a done a LOT of restoration work over the last few years.
I got on a Rogers pedal roll for a few months, and really learned a lot about them. Mostly from a gentleman I bought one from, who has a lot of expertise.
As I was gathering up parts, I learned (just as he said) that many listed on ebay have been put together with parts from different eras. Boy, was he right.
So I'm saying with confidence this one is 100% correct. I mean, check out the roll pins driven into the heel plate to secure the hinge bolts. Ingenious!
It is very very clean, and plays beautifully. Please look at all the pix in the gallery and you'll see. Original beater and new strap included.
$165 + 7 shipping. 3% discount for a money order (no Paypal fee!). Very fair price.
If you love playing these (and Buddy Rich always did, no matter what company he endorsed), do NOT miss this!
The best I've ever seen.
