Rogers Wraps

Loading...

I'd appreciate it greatly if one of the Rogers' gurus out there could tell me whether the company used one or two pieces of wrap on its Cleveland-era 20" bass drums.

THANKS in advance for your help!

I'm far from a Rogers guru but the standard size of sheets of pearl and sparkle wrap (24"x54") dictate that any drum over 17" in diameter wrapped in such will require two pieces for full coverage.

54/3.14=17.2

Satin flame and cortex type wraps are available in greater lengths so can be installed on larger drums with only one seam.

Two pieces of wrap on each drum. These are all original.
