1970's Slingerland Set - Page 2 - Vintage Drum Forum

Floor tom: 14x16? I'm not aware of this size being offered in a double lug version. Have only seen this in the concert tom series. Could this be a 16x18?

Bass drums: most likely 14x22. Again, I don't recall any 16" depth bass drums during this time period. Please, chime in with more opinions here!

Regardless, it's a really great looking kit. Rock on!

Oh Man I can't even measure right.

Your right the basses are 14x22

And good eye on the floor tom. It was a concert tom. Is 14x16. I drilled it for bottom hoops. Thing sounds like a cannon.
