You forgot the 80's 3 ply with no reinforcement ring..... three plies with re-rings or 80's five plies ....
Spirit line? Never heard of them. I had the five ply shells with no reinforcement rings back in 1980.You forgot the 80's 3 ply with no reinforcement ring.
There's on on eBay right now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Slingerlan...009543?hash=item2f38b77307:g:Fo8AAOSwNw1dwHYxSpirit line? Never heard of them. I had the five ply shells with no reinforcement rings back in 1980.
Weird! Look at that hardware. Doesn't look like anything Slingerland ever made.There's one on eBay right now.
Not at all. Slingerland's lugs were beautiful. Some of their hardware was really great too, but that is where they'll have to make improvements. I'm sure they'll still have the Set-O-Matic tom holder for the nostalgia factor. The shells they made were pretty much the same formula that everyone's been using for decades.Drums have changed so much since Slingerland was a big deal. They'll have to develop entirely new lines if they want to appeal to new players. Otherwise they'll just be the Nostalgia Drum Company.

I agree; in fact, when I had Precision Drum custom make me a set last year, I specified beavertail replica lugs to pay homage to my 1963 Slingerland set.Slingerland's lugs were beautiful.
