No badge on big R tom
Ive never really thought anything of this till now. All the pics ive seen of Big R sets, have the Badge on them with the vent hole. My 12" tom has no badge nor a place for a vent hole. It has the correct mounting stuff though. So is this just a drum that was put on with the rogers hardware, or were some made like this? I think it may be somewhat warped to, heads dont like coming off it.

Re: No badge on big R tom
after further investigation of my tom. There are no reinforcing rings, and it looks like the rogers mount was put on it. So i guess the only thing rogers i do have, is my bass drum. But it does say Rogers USA with a low serial number on it..i guees i got to find a mounted tom and a floor tom for it now.

I think this is an Island import, Elicitdrummer.

Re: No badge on big R tom
well..at least it would still be rogers. didint the imports have vents though to? My bass says Rogers USA with a serial number. This tom, has no holes for vents, and the places that have filler in them, none match up to where a badge would be. Its kind of a bummer finding out that it aint what i thought it was. Just means i have to spend more money on drums...which i dont mind..only if i had it.

Re: No badge on big R tom
I think what you might have is a Gretsch tom that was drilled for Rogers mount. That looks like a Gretsch muffler.
