Does anyone know anything about Rogers Drums? I know Yamaha bought the Rogers brand back recently, but how do Rogers drums stack up against Tama, Pearl, Ludwig, etc. now?
I have a chance to buy a used Rogers kit - 22" bass, 16" floor tom, 12" and 13" mounted toms for $50.00 and I was wondering about the current state of the Rogers brand. These aren't vintage, but probably made between 2000 and 2008. They are missing the bottom rims on the toms and the bottom lugs / tension rods, but I am thinking I can pick these up fairly cheaply and mount them back on the shells. In other words, for a little work and investment, I am wondering if I'll get a decent intermediate kit. Or something along the lines of "First Act". I don't want to waste my $50.00.
Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
