Matt is looking for the following six-lug Slingerland snare drums from the 1950s through the late 1970s.

Desired drums carry either the Chicago, Illinois black-and-brass badge or the Niles, Illinois black-and-silver badge.

We’re paying top dollar for these finishes in 6-lug models. If you have an 8-lug version, we’d still be interested, so don’t be shy, contact us today with what you have!
