[A Rogers PowerTone model manufactured in the 1960s has arrived!]

-Rogers Drums-
Founded in 1849 as an American manufacturer of calfskin drumheads, Rogers Drums began manufacturing drums around the 1930s.
They introduced cutting-edge drum manufacturing techniques and hardware to the world, and made significant strides, particularly from the mid-1950s to the 1970s, becoming a central figure among American drum manufacturers.
Its superior sound and functionality have made it a favorite among drummers across a wide range of genres, from jazz and classic rock to big band drummers like Buddy Rich.
The "Dyna-Sonic" snare drum, equipped with an innovative snare ear tension adjustment mechanism, is known as a model that symbolizes Rogers' superior mechanical design technology.
Furthermore, the "Swiv-o-Matic" series hardware, which incorporated highly innovative ideas for its time, was adopted into the kits of many top artists, including Ringo Starr, John Bonham, and Keith Moon.

-Powertone-
The Powertone model was introduced in 1964 as the successor to the Holiday model and was manufactured until around 1970. While it was offered in the same size and finish as the Holiday model, the main differences from the Holiday model included changes to the lug design and the elimination of the snare bed.
Metal-shelled snare drums were initially made of steel, but models manufactured from 1967 to 1970 had brass shells.
This guitar was manufactured in Dayton, Ohio, and is believed to have been produced around 1967-1968. The shell is made of brass with a chrome-plated finish (Chrome.Over.Brass).
This model offers a mild attack and a rich mid-to-low frequency response, with a full-bodied stick sound and a wide tuning range—qualities unique to brass shells.
While it has an open sound, the sustain is well-controlled, resulting in a snare drum with an exquisite balance that blends in seamlessly.
Depending on how you set the sound, it can produce a wide range of tones, from warm, wood-shell-like sounds to powerful and vibrant ones.

This model features die-cast hoops, resulting in a focused, clear attack and projection, creating a sound that is perfectly suitable for modern music.

Diameter x Depth: 14 inches x 5 inches Shell: Brass (chrome plated finish)
Hoops: Die-cast hoops/8 tension Strainer: Swivel strainer (replaced with current model)
