Measure the lug spacing, or you could be buying a massive heart ache. Not enough information on the typed in tag.

Thanks for the reply and links! What lug spacing measurement am I looking for? What year did they stop using this type of tag on Rogers drums?

A ten year period that used two lug styles.

Drums are definitely 60s. Most likely Cleveland. Hole Spacing would narrow to before 63... Bread and Butter Lugs... 63 and later, Beavertail Lugs.

Which would cause the heart ache?

Bread and butter lugs. = heart ache. they are drawn brass and mostly cracked. Uncracked lugs cost a lot.

Beavertails wont fit those holes.

Large Beavertail 2 5/16" Bass Drum

Small Beavertail 1 3/4" Toms, Floor Toms, Snare Drums over 6.5" deep

Small Center Lug, Double ended lug.. 1 15/16" Snare Drums 5 and 6.5 depth, Dynasonic, Tower, Luxor, Powertone.

Large Center Lug,... 3 3/16" Tower Bass Drum, Tower Tom, Center mounted double ended lug

Thanks Ploughman! This is the info I need to be armed with! Thanks for taking the time to give me he measurements!

Where are you sourcing parts from? Or do you intend to use the shells, plug the holes, and use aftermarket generic lugs?

Rogers parts are going to set you back a good bit. You would do better finding a set that is together, rather than doing a ground up restoration as your first project.

That looks like a really old Cleveland tag. The number could make them 1958? Definitely a solid tip to check the holes.

I really like doing the restorations! This will not be my first project but it will be my first of this magnitude. I have restored a 64' Downbeat kit and a few snares. I keep learning with every restoration and I think I am ready to tackle a full on restoration. I am sure I will learn a ton along the way. I have already learned a ton more about Rogers Drums in general. I have only restored 1 other Rogers (a late 60's Dynasonic) but it was my first restoration ever and the drum that got me mixed up in this whole crazy vintage drum world!
