Hi Iamdrummer and all the rest of the crew.

I'm so glad that someone else appreciates these superb drums.

I am lucky enough to own both examples :

One 5x14: and

One 6.1/2 x14.

Mike is correct, so far and to my knowledge, there are 14 or 15, 5x14's. And 4, 6.1/2 x 14. There is also one other engraved black shell snare, this is not strictly a black beauty but a Radio King with I think slightly different engraving. As I've not seen this drum in person or up close I'm only going off pictures I've seen in Rob's Slingerland book.

One of the 4, 6's is also a "Lipskin" model.

Also Slingerland DID offer this drum in a 4x14 size. Anyone have one let me know. It's tough to see how the engraving would space out and look correctly with this size drum, but, they are listed int he catalog.

I just though you'd all like to see them.

Enjoy.

Dave
