Rogers 5x14" Powertone Snare Drum - 1960s White Marine Pearl
Couldn't load pickup availability
A lovely Rogers wood Powertone snare dating to the mid 1960s. Classic WMP finish with a nicely aged hue. Original edges, internal tone control, triple-flanged hoops, and throw-off are all original and work properly. 60's Powertones are a do-it-all drum with plenty of power to cut in a rock setting and great for nuanced playing in lower volume or jazz settings. They were the some of the first drums constructed with what we consider modern drum building techniques.
From Rogers:
"A new kind of drum gives you full snare head action—and a smooth, rich sound.
It's what you cant see on Powertone that counts. And you can't see the snare bed. It's invisible. This means you get the sound you want without excessive tightening of snares.
Think about that for a moment. Your snares won't choke the head. And your snare head has freedom to do what it must do: vibrate fully over its entire surface.
It's just that simple. But that simple difference gives you sound that's smooth and rich. Your sound is alive, projects 'out' where you want it without pounding. There are no dead spots anywhere—just live sound right to the edge of the head. Live sound and better sound because of Powertone's exclusive acoustic shell properties in both the all metal brass shell and the cross-laminated wood shell.
You can hear and feel the difference.
When you play Powertone.
PowerTone Snare Drums
Each PowerTone snare drum is complete with Swiv-o-matic strainer, polished chrome fittings, 8 self-aligning lugs, separate tension, triple flange hoops, internal tone control, and 20-strand wire snappy snares."
