Hey Mike,

Man that's a sweet patina on that shell! That's the shell I wanted, one that was aged like yours. I'm very happy with mine, but yours is just beautiful. Thanks for posting photos.

Any more of these NOS Slingy shell builds floating around? Post away!

Too many great drums to list here!

FYI, guys. If you're interested. There's a dealer on E-Bay that has 5 NOS, un-drilled 5x14 3 liners for sale. "Buy now" for $72.29 each + shipping. He also has quite a few other assorted drum shells in his "store".
