slingerland snare

Loading...

hi,

I just bought an old slingerland snaredrum that sounds like a bell! my god

But I am a bit puzzeled with this snaredrums' actual identity.

It is a blue sparkle ,5" or 5,5" deep wooden snare , light weight so it's a real thin shell. It has this type of slingerland fast strainer. And it has the black/brass badge from the sixties saying "Niles, illinois. The inside coating is sort of creamy white.

But it has only 6 lugs?! And no extra holes.

I looked all over on the net and couldn't find a matching Slingerland snare with only 6 lugs.

Hope somebody can help me with this

Could we get a picture of that. It sounds like a student model snare

since those were 6 lugs, but I have never heard the interior referred

to as creamy white, usually creamy brown.

I think what you have is a Deluxe Student Model with a rapid strainer
