Slingerland 13" coated - 70's

Loading...

Hi all!

I'm looking for a Slingerland 13" coated head to complete a refurb of my 1971 kit. Preferably as close to NOS as possible, with the style of logo you see in the picture. Turns out I have 3 12" heads, but no 13" heads! I missed out on a 12/13 NOS combination on eBay, thinking I had a 13" head! DOH

I've got one that has marks on the head but hasn't seen much in the way of playing time. I didn't try and clean it (didn't want to mess with the coating) but the marks that are there might be cleanable with some work.

A magic eraser will clean that head up just fine.

Thanks for the suggestion! Hadn't thought about that...and I do have a Magic Eraser. Now, if I can just get Peter to clean out some of his messages, I can let him know I'm interested!

Maybe the Magic eraser will work on the inbox as well... I wonder why they went to smooth heads later in the 70's.. I remember having to buy coated batters for my middish 70 kit...

Cheers

John
