Big Bang Distribution? I think? They are cool, but for the money. . . . .not that cool!
I do NOT have a wood Dyna..but some of the guys in another group who do have one of the new ones ..say they are AS GOOD as the vintage ones..that costs more than twice as much. I forgot where they are being made though....sorry
Enjoy the Music!

I understand..but as I said the old vintage WOOD dyna's are going for more than $2500...and I just saw a sale for one of the new ones for under $700. I know for most...for a snare..its still a bit much..but I sold my white set ( 4 pc ) to save for when they come out with a Champagne Sparkle one. You just cannot help loving the sound of a Dyna.

Are they coming out with additional colors?
I’m sure I’ll end up with one at some point but I’m not wild about the 3 color options they currently have though. I’d really like a natural wood or a stain.
I just saw a Red Onyx came out...$700

I like sparkle kits but if I’m buying a one off snare drum I’d prefer a more neutral color so it matches any kit. A natural finish would be ideal, although I’m not sure that dyna’s ever came in natural finish to begin with. I can’t remember ever seeing a Holiday kit that was stained, I think they were all wrapped.
That’s good news. I’ll need to be patient and see what else they come out with.
Well I too am a Sparkle guy...well for two of my 3 sets now. I am waiting for a Champagne sparkle...got the dough now and am waiting patiently. If they do NOT come out with that color in a few years I too may have to see what solid color would work best.

Hello. I posted this on the maintenance board but figure I should ask some Rogers guys. I have script badge Fullertons I bought in '71, with 13 and 14" toms up and a 16" ft. Lately there's some after buzz coming from the 13". It's narrowed down to the muffler spring. I play them wide open with a little pressure on the muffler, not touching the head, so I could just remove it entirely but I'd rather leave the drum whole. Other than the buzz the whole set is just as amazing as it ever was. Any suggestions?
I had that on some old Ludwig mufflers I installed in a set of Fibes acrylics back in the 70's. I tied some string around the threaded shaft so as to hold the vibrating of the flat strapping like piece. Worked perfectly.
I'm going to revive this thread. I could never take a picture of me on stage, while playing, for obvious reasons. Found this one someone else had submitted in a post on FB. This is from about 1980. Yes I hauled all that around to every gig. I had energy and no smarts back in the day.
Wanted to share my Rogers kit in all its glory. I had Paiste 2002 Red Labels, too.
And of course the beloved Roto-toms, I still have today.
Now I'm also using Paiste Signature series cymbals. Just a coincidence at this point. I still have a set of Zildjian A's and my gigging set which is mostly Paragon stuff - hats, ride and splash and a couple Sabian crashes.

I'm happy.

Signature here
Nice pics Bish!
Amazing how none of us (back then) didn't care what we used to muffle the bass drum....or how bad it looked.
I have similar pics myself.
Gretsch USA & Zildjian(What Else Would I Ever Need ?)
I remember putting T-shirts on the top of my toms to muffle them, lol. I was like 13 or so.
