Hi
I'm new to the forum and have been playing drums about 5 years. I'm a middle age mom of a young percussionist and my interest started when I bought him a beginners drumset.
I have been wanting a vintage drumset for awhile now. my brother owned a 67 ludwig once. I liked the sound of it and decided I wanted to try to find something like it for myself.
I have found a Slingerland 70's cordova leatherett used set....He wants 500 dollars!!!. I have no pictures but have researched and checked the badge numbers here. Seems to be 1975. I think its football shaped.
Anyway, it is missing bass hoop, 3 bottoms rims, leg spurs, and bolts to attach toms to mount. Some plies show a little seperation (it has re-rings). Bearing edges are ok, but not great. Wrap still looks good.
What do you think is a fair offer for it? It will cost $150 or so to get replace ment parts I think.
Thanks
