What's Going On With Slingerland/Gibson?

[Pete Stoltman]

Does anyone know the status of the current Slingerland drum manufacturing? Gibson has some pictures and descriptions of nice looking drums on their website. Almost all links though go to the Gibson guitar/banjo/mandolin company. Are any drum specialty shops stocking the instruments? I haven't seen anybody playing anything that looks like new Slingy's.

Hey Pete

Yep, a lot of speculation and different stories on that topic.

I hate to openly make a statement since I do not have first hand knowledge.
