Talk:Slingerland Drum Company

when I was a kid back around 62
Way back when in around 1962 (I was 6yo )my Uncle Chuck gave me a goofy looking set of drums..he  just bought himself a new kit..slingerland of course ..I was so embarassed i couldnt be playing what all the cool kids were playing, this  goofy looking set  was by no other name a classic Slingerland cocktail kit..The seat also carried the hardware  the kick pedal  thumped up under what was also used as  a tom on the top.. It had a radio king snare.. standard type hi hat with the clunky looking 13 inch zildgians and one 24 in ride..he was a jazz drummer..I learned on this kit and sadly to say I  traded them for  a brand spanking new set of KENTS  omg  what I think I did now  yikes.. but in any event both sets are now collector sets..I played drums and still do  nowdays  who knows what is best.. I really wanted a new set of slingerlands when I came out of retirement 2 years ago but low and behold I couldnt find any ..so I bought a set of  hand built PO BOYs from a nice guy in colorado  Tony the owner is an honest guy  so if ya got an itch for something that compares  give him a call ..I will always have fond memories of Slingerland M.Maschino Palm Bay Florida —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.101.113.168 (talk) 22:20, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Did I imagine it?
Or did Motörhead's Phil Taylor play a Slingerland kit? Mr Larrington (talk) 22:45, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
