Ich muss zur meiner Schande gestehen, dass ich das Rogers Buch von Rob Cook verlegt habe.
Google bringt nicht gerade Erquickendes über die R360 Reihe zu Tage:
Zitathave a Rogers 380 kit for my teaching studio. I bought it new and recovered it in silver sparkle. If you like the sound of your vintage Ludwigs, you won't be happy with a Rogers 360 kit. They were made when Rogers was going down the tube and took production over to Taiwan. They are an entry level kit with an entry level sound. Again, they were made when entry levels kits sounded like entry level kits. The shells are made with some type of wood composite(sawdust, cowdung and sake) and even with Pinstripes on them, it's hard to get the annoying overtones out of them. You would be better off buying the Yamaha Rydeens.
ZitatThe R360 and R380 lines that came out in the early 80s were NOT made by Yamaha and are really the bottom of the barrel as far as drums go. The late 60s early 70s versions made by Yamaha had really nice birch shells and sounded fantastic.
Scheinbar gab es zwei verscheidene R360 Serien: Eine aus den 60igern mit gut klingenden Birkenkessel Trommeln, welche in Lizenz von Yamaha gebaut wurden und eine R360 Serie aus den 80igern mit fürchterlich klingenden Drums der untersten Einsteiger Stufe, welche in Taiwan aus undefinierbaren Holzsorten (Sake Holz?) zusammen geschustert wurden.
Ich hoffe, dein Set ist aus den 60igern...
