I own a set of 1972 Slingerlands that look brand new. It has 12", 13", 14" and 15" mounted toms, an 18" floor tom, 24" kick, and a 14"x 6.5" snare. Although...
I live about a mile and half from the the totally renovated Slingerland factory here in Conway. They gutted the old Baldwin Piano factory. I went up there to...
Hello to my partners in percussion. As you can tell by the subject line, I have a question about cymbals. I'm looking for a group of cymbals (pair of hats,...
I have the DW 4000 double bass pedal which I think is OK, but I haven't tried many. I'd be interested in any opinions comparing the DW 4000 to the DW 9000...
... Hi Terry, DON't get rid of the older Slingys! I spent sometime looking at the new line along with Charlie Adams. The new Slingerlands QC was OK. It is...
to wish Zilla and all of the Lair members a very healthy, blessed and drumming New Year!!!!! I hope that 2005 will be great for my new band, HOOKED, and if you...
Happy new year everybody, I didn't get any drum gear either, but I did get that new Beatle box set with the 1st four American albums. This means I get to hear ...

First, ZILLA - Ok, I've updated my link to The Drum Tuning Bible in the "links" section of this website. Second, here's what I know about Slingerland's...
Hi Guys, I practiced really hard around a week or so on my bass drum technique. Perhaps too hard, maybe without proper warmup. Ever since I have been...
Yes, it's called getting older and being outta shape. :-) Seriously though, it's just like any repetitive exercise. I try to do wrist and ankle exercises...

It sounds like a Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). It is likely you overworked the joints and muscles. I would suggest taking it easy on the foot for a number of...
I have had a problem like that before but it usually went away after a day or two. I normally would just take an asprin or aleve and elevate my foot / ankle...

I'm weighing in late on this one. There are two lines of Slingerland - American made and China made. Over the last several years only the Chinese make have...

Thanks to all for the feedback. The combination of Alleve and rest is seeming to do the trick. I usually practice 45-90 minutes 3-4 times/week. When I hurt...
Well, I finally lettered my bass head, the logos they sent are a litte smaller than I expected, and the directions on how to put em on, I don't think they...
Slingerland was basically THE drum kit in the big band era. The Radio King snare is perhaps the most sought after snare in the vintage market. Gene Krupa,...
I am frustrated with the lack of financial openness of the leader of the band I'm in. He is the leader, does all the booking and handles all the band business,...
Sounds like a shady bastage. Talk to him alone and tell him your concerns. If he keeps it up, screw him. Trust is too important to be taken for granted or...
Yea dude, that sounds ultra shady. My frontman makes it a point to let us all know when money comes in, when money goes out, before things are spent he...
