Hello, My name is Mike Gallichio I am new here but not new to drumming. This seams like a great place to learn about Slingerland. I have for some reason a new intrest in this company. I have just purchased a 1960's set of slingerland on e bay. The drums are in mint shape. I mean Mint.
The inside of the drums are a light brown color. No date just a P stamp They are very light weight. Covered in light blue pearl. I was wondering about the bottom of the bass drum . It has two seams on the bottom. Like a piece was fitted in. But I dont think they were recovered. I was wondering if Slingerland produced drums with a single seam and sometimes a double seam. I went to ebay and asked people selling some very old looking bass drums that look like they were not recovered and some told me one seam and some told me two seams. My think it may have depended on the stock on hand at Slingerland? Can anyone comment on this?
Thank you
Mike Gallichio
