Slingerland Denim drums

Loading...

Hi guys.

A good buddy of mine has inherited a set of 1976 Slingerland Denim drums.

They have the Denim finish and apparently came with a pair of jeans when new! (no longer with the kit)

The kit is a 5 piece, sizes...

14x24 Kick

9x13 tom

10x14 tom

16x18 tom

with a matching 6.5 x 14 snare

Condition is excellent.

I am trying to get a picture from him which I will post.

I've never seen anything like these. Any idea of the rarity or value of these drums?

they are rare but do not command a premium price they will bring the average slingerland resale price.

Your drummers not much good is he!? What you need is someone that's as good as me. ! John Henry Bonham !!

I will add on to that last post........ They will fetch a similar price to other oversized Slingerland drums of the same age in colors such as solid white or solid black.

No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.

Thanks for the responses guys. That's kind of what I figured. Even though rare, not a very desireable finish to be sure. I've done a bit more searching on the forum (which I probably should have done before posting). Seems they had a short production run because they were such poor sellers...along with some other wierd 70's wraps.

Sort of an oddity and a collector piece I guess. I don't believe he will sell them regardless. Still trying to get the pics for the record.
