Of the many Rogers stories shared by collectors and historians, the rare and elusive Purple Diamond Pearl drums hold a special mystique. After briefly appearing on a handful of Rogers drums in 1957 (including artist Cozy Cole’s personal outfit) this fabled finish seemed to vanish into history. Now, it returns as part of the Cleveland drum collection, blending Rogers’ classic signature style with an exclusive new shell design that defines the next chapter of their drum kit innovation.

Handcrafted for the modern player with a vintage soul, the Cleveland Series delivers an open, punchy sonic profile with a rich low-end presence, producing a wide tonal spectrum suited for any genre. At its core is an advanced proprietary shell, crafted from a 5-ply Maple and Poplar body with 2-ply Maple reinforcement rings, enhancing dynamic range, durability, and limitless musical expression. Available in 20” or 22” bass drum / 3-piece kit configurations, these hand-built drums are perfect for both hardcore vintage enthusiasts and modern players discovering the Rogers legacy.
