Far too old for you. Put it down before you drop it, or you'll have to buy it.

kevins!...

With a serial of #45776, this dates the drum right on the cusp between late 1973, early 1974... Fullerton, CA production.

MIKEY777!...

Your "understanding" is in error. Over the years, and with a lot of research, it has been determined that the serial numbers on Rogers Dynasonics CAN date the drum within a year or so, and a lot of times right on the money. The Dynasonic dating in the Rob Cook Rogers Book however, is not accurate, although the book itself is EXCELLENT!

This one arrived Sat.

It's one from Dusty's estate sale at DFO.

I didn't know Mitch at all, but I understand he was a well loved and respected member of the drumming community.

I'm really grateful to be able to handle this drum's journey for a while now !

The first one, you helped me pick out, and the second one belonged to Mitch... (gone to glory).

MIKEY777!...

Rob did put out a 2nd edition of the Rogers Book with a slew of corrections and added content... do you have that one? Rob had also decided NOT to include a dating reference for the Dynasonic in the 2nd edition as he felt that it still wasn't accurate enough. Since then though, more info has come to light as well as a lot more drums that were sampled with regard to their serial number correlating to a date of manufacture, and with a much smaller margin of error.

Have you heard about a 3rd edition? I haven't heard anything about that, but you never know! I would suspect that if there were to be a 3rd edition, it would include a dating reference on the Dynasonic, as again, great strides have been taken in the accuracy of the dating process.
