I don't normally go for purple, but those Slingerlands are luscious. Nice touch on the matching ports.

TP! Thanks for sharing company with my BR 80N. Your kits are always classy...and love the canister throne!
Iamdrummer! Thanks for the compliment!
al9000! Growing up, I would NEVER have purchased a purple kit! Guess I've matured over the years! Yes, I thought the purple ports were cool!
cooper! Talk about classic beauties!

Anything American and vintage. Sorry rest of world. :D
I'm not even American so can't accuse me of being biased. American made drums of old are best aesthetically and structurally (for the most part) I will still respectfully tip my cap to the Brits and the Germans especially for some of the all-metal drums, but hardware was not so pretty. Just my opinion. ;)
