Product Details

There's a reason vintage Rogers drums remain sought after in recording studios. The roundness of the note. The richness beneath every stroke. The way the sound settles naturally into a recording. Covington brings that character into a new generation of Rogers drums.

Its three-ply maple/poplar shells are heat-bent using proprietary molds based on original 1960s Rogers specifications. Two-ply reinforcement rings and carefully shaped bearing edges contribute to a full, rounded fundamental, rich resonance and smooth, controlled decay. The result is a drum kit with a particular musical character. Every tuning reveals a different shade of its voice, from soft, rounded tones to a more focused, substantial note. It's a sound that rewards attention, especially when microphones are involved.

Choose between two classic three-piece configurations: 12/14/20 or 12/16/22. Each is built to order and finished with authentic Rogers details, including Beavertail lugs, script badges, matching-inlay bass drum hoops and classic Bowtie tension rods.
