This listing is for a vintage 1977 Rogers Memriloc era big "R" tom-tom.

Serial number on the Big "R" badge is D-719521.

The all-maple shell measures 9" deep x 13" wide. The shell is perfectly in round, and the interior is factory sealed in grey trunk paint. As you can see from my pictures, the inside is in excellent condition.

The exterior is factory wrapped in Rogers "Ebony", which is tough, hard plastic covering, very similar to Formica. The finish is beautifully preserved and it looks amazing! There are some snare "rash" scars on one side of this drum, see pictures # 6 and # 9.

This drum is factory equipped with twelve Rogers "Beavertail" lugs, 12 Rogers tension rods, 2 Rogers triple-flanged rims and a single Rogers Memriloc tom mounting bracket. All of the metal parts are brilliantly chrome plated and look amazing!! Unfortunately, the bottom resonant hoop is showing quite a bit of serious rusting and pitting on the inside diameter of the rim.
