Sound Pure's Take

This consignment drum is a 1960's Slingerland Artist Model Snare Drum that is in great condition. It’s a 5.5x14 ply snare drum in Sparkling Blue Pearl. Black and Gold oval Niles badge with serial #8960 dates this drum between 1963 and 1965. The seams are tight and shows no signs of bubbling or lifting. The shell interior has the natural finish and the interior hardware is clean and shows no sign of oxidation or rust. The bearing edges are all original and are in very good condition. The hoops are in very good condition. The lugs are also in great condition but a couple do show some light pitting. It has the original Zoomatic strainer and Tone Control.
