Hello folks - I'm not up on the vintage slingerland stuff so I thought I'd post here. I spied an old metal shell Slingy at a local music store the other day. Standard size (14" X 5 1/2") I believe. The shell was def chrome over something as it's insides were metal as well. Badge was the black/silver Niles, stick saver rims and the standard 8 Slingy lugs. The throw was the simple Slingy style (looks like the old 55' - 69' Ludwig style - Thumbscrew tensioner, side-arm throw).
The shell and lugs had some surface rust and pitting, but it wasn't trashed. The drum also had some heft to it, so I doubt it was aluminum - felt like a brass shell weight to me. Is this worth around $100.00 or should I pass?
Thanks.
