N00b here...just wanted to post the Slingerland kit I have had for some time now. I bought the original 5pc--24,13,14,16,5x14--in the mid 90's and recently began hoarding off Ebay. Recently recovered everything and this is what it looks like now...2-24's,12,13,14,15,16, 5x14,6.5x14,10 &12 timbales, and various bells and whistles. Great old maple sound. Hope you like them.

Great set, but it appears now you need a few more cymbals to match the load of drums. ;)

Dude!! Does your kit have its own zip code? It looks awesome; great picking off of the ebay. Amazing that you can find matching gear for your 5-p. I wish I could have more luck finding early 70's pieces for my Gretsch kit. Keep on, keepin' on!!

You should add some support beams to the deck - It's going to crumble under the weight of that monster!!

Welcome!
Also: gorgeous kit! It's not often that you see a drum set with so many pieces that still manages to look classy. Yours does.
What's the wrap you used for the recovering?
I'd love to see a frontal photo if you've got one.

That is one nice big set of Slingerland! I'm used to seeing mostly 4pc kits - this is really something different for me.
Looks like lotsa fun - Great stuff!
Nice to look at too........
