Vintage 60s Slingerland 13” Tom Drum - Brass Hoops - Violet Purple Blue Sparkle Pearl
Rare wrap, I think it was called Sparkling Blue Pearl but some call it violet sparkle. (I welcome input). 13” diameter by 9” deep shell. The ink stamp inside looks like Aug 1965 as well as the letter P. Overall, I’d say light wear and scratches. 3 ply shells with re-rings. Natural interior looks like maple. Red Sparkle wrap looks good. Chrome over Brass hoops look wonderful! They lie flat. A touch of rust, mostly on the clip mount and tension rods. (Most look original, missing one washer). Tone control muffler adjusts smoothly. Top head looks original, unfortunately someone spray painted part of it white. (Some overspray got into the wrap, mostly in one panel - see last picture) Old Remo pinstripe on bottom. No extra holes. Seams on one side have slight separation, typical of older drums. I’d probably touch up with glue / clamp and sand a bit. Not a structural concern. Heads go on fine and spin freely. Please refer to the pictures as they are considered a part of the description.
