70s Slingerland Black Diamond Pearl Set

Posts: 7 Threads: 4

I'm thinking of selling my old Slingerland set. Could anyone shed some light on their age and approximate value?

late 60's early 70's very nice kit

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 think by the serial number more around 1977-78..

So it has a replacement BD rim, do you still have the original and the missing claws & rods?

If you could confirm the sizes someone will probably come up with a value..

Cheers

Did you find that catalog entry via the serial#? Definitely 77-78 then?

I only have the one original BD ring claw/rod set. Everything else is there though.

If in deed a 77-78 kit, should it not have the newer tom mount?
