Thinking about selling everything

Posts: 1671 Threads: 667

I have no children interested in my gear....no grandkids into music, so I'm at the point where I say "why do I keep this stuff?" so. for your consideration

set 1. Most of which was bought NEW at the Slingerland Plant in Niles IL in 1972. That set was WMP 24" bass...13/14 up top...16/18 floor. About 12 years ago I ran into an estate sale where the party had all the sizes I didn't in same year and color. 6/8" concert toms, 10/12 concert toms

another 24" bass...15" tom and a 20" floor tom. I believe that's every size in the catalog, not sure if a 20: floor tom was in it, perhaps custom made for a pro? who knows. A prominent valued the set so I'm asking 5K

I might ad the set is museum quality, all 3 ply

set 2. all white also 70's Sling kit in 24" bass 12/13/14/15 up top 18 floor

asking $1500....excellent condition

set 3. also 70's Pearl all fiberglass kit (NOT woodFG) 24" bass 13/14 top

18 floor excellent condition as well. asking $800

sorry one [pic is upside down, not sure how to correct that. stand on your head maybe> ?

Long time no hear how are you Gary ?

and I remember your kit at the drum show very clean

April 2nd 1969 scarfed pink champagne holly wood and 65/66 downbeat snare, and , supra same year very minty kit old pies
66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob
1967 super classic obp





once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

I can't resist this question: Did you ever take the entire kit to a gig?

Not interested in the drums, but is that Slingerland banner for sale too?

BTW, is picture #4 the inverted Tommy Lee set?

Sorry I haven't responded to the PM's guys....I'll leave my email address for anyone who wants to get in touch. I forgot to mention this. I converted my 20" floor tom into a bass drum simply by removing the rims, replacing with wood bass drum rims with bass hoop claws as well. and replacing the heads. I used the mounts for the legs as a cymbal holder as seen in pic. The amazing thing is this bass sounds better than any other Bass I ever played. It can be used in any setting from jazz, to rock. with the drums I have the kit configuration is endless.

Hi Gary, hope all is well with you
