I found a Rogers Dynasonic snare drum, 14” by 4.5”. It needs new snares and a bottom head. Its selling for $70 on craigslist. Is this a good deal?

Well I don't know much about Rogers, but what I do know is Dynasonics, particularly the wood ones, are quite sought after.

New snares and a resonant head are easily replacable. I'd be more interested in the state of the shell if I was you!

Have you got a link?

I also found a super gene krupa snare drum, not sure how much it is but is it a good snare drum?

Well the Starclassic looks alright!

Rogers snare looks good in that one shot, but you'd probably want to give it a once over to check the chrome properly.

Again, not a vintage expert, one of the other guys might be able to help more. But I believe Radio King snares (the Gene Krupa) are also meant to be a bit of a collectors item.

I think both Buddy and Gene were Radio King players.

Even if the shell is a wash. If the lugs are in good condition, expect to get 75.00 for those. Another 50-75 for the throw and butt. And another 40 for the Dynasonic bottom hoop, and top hoop, each.

Yes, its worth it.

I would know.
