The Noble and Cooley Horizon kit he’s currently using is fantastic!
I’ve never seen this snare listed anywhere (I’ve seen a Longo Purpleheart, N&C SS maple, even a Kep at one point) - but this one has very unique looking lugs on what appears to be a piccolo metal snare.
Any thoughts on what...
I’ve been on the hunt for a while - looking for a Longo Cherry 5-6” depth x 14” diameter. I know @Markkuliini isn’t going to part with his :)
Anyone else have one they’re ready to move along? Thanks!
I think I've narrowed down this drum to the early 40s, but I'm a life-long vintage Rogers player so I would love the Slingerland experts to jump in and lend their knowledge -
I believe the badge tells me 1937-1943 (http://www.vintagedrumguide.com/drcjw/article_1_badges.html) which would give me...
I missed the boat on these a few years back - maybe there’s a kit out there that’s ready to move on to a new home:
Gretsch Royal Blue Oyster 18/12/14 or 20/12/14.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated!
Who has one lying around and wants to earn some extra holiday spending $?
The ones on Reverb are all around the price of a new one... looking for a deal on DFO to save us all the fees!
Thanks for looking and for any leads!
4.5 x 14” solid Birdseye Maple shell, classic Gretsch 30 degree edges, but with re-rings. Sounds like a phenomenal drum! (Though I believe they’re no longer in production).
Just curious, does anyone know if Gretsch made the solid shell, or if they were supplied by a different manufacturer?
I’ve been amazed at what comes up in this great forum... so, here’s a shot in the dark.
Does anyone have a Slingerland Artist Solid Shell Snare in blue agate sitting on their shelf collecting dust that they’d like to move on down the road?
Thanks for looking and any potential leads!
I love my Rogers Tower 12/14/20, but I’ve been thinking of adding on a 16” floor tom as well.
Did Rogers ever make a Tower (center lug) 16” floor tom?
I’ve never seen one, but that doesn’t mean much...
I’d never seen a 16” (deep) x 14” (diameter) Rogers floor tom until this year either - and...
Hi All - looking forward to see if anyone has either (or both) of these crashes in their cymbal bag / propped up against a wall gathering dust that they’d be open to sell:
Meinl Byzance 20” Extra Dry Thin Crash
Meinl Byzance 18” Vintage Crash (not the Benny Greb Sand model)
Looking to complete my Rogers rock kit. It’s already a Blue Onyx orphan kit of Cleveland / Dayton / Fullerton era drums (13/16/18/24), so any era rack tom would be wonderful.
Pic below for reference:
I just received a near pristine Gretsch Round Badge Aqua Satin Flame kit... but the bass hoop arrived cracked. Too good to be true - nearly no checking or spider webs in all the wrap, a one owner kit that shines like its new
Has anyone had any luck removing a vintage satin flame inlay and...
One day I'll be able to hit a cymbal like Bill Stewart, but what better way to practice than on the ride he inspired / helped design.
Interested in the 20" and/or 22" (ideally I'll eventually find both with enough time and patience).
I have 2018 Zildjian K Constantinople crashes (17" and 18")...
I’ve been listening to a lot of Charlie Hunter featuring Carter McLean on the tubs and his Agops (it seems he has quite an assortment) sound fantastic!
A while back he featured a set of Keropes and they sounded fantastic!
But a few years later he then released another video of his Istanbul...
Building up funds, but also interested in trading. Looking a 6 x 14” Noble and Cooley Copper Snare or 22" Kerope ride
Can do a cash, cash + trade or trade with the following snares (which are sitting on my shelf not getting played nearly as much as they should):

Building up funds for both purchases, but for now I'll take whichever one surfaces first. Will also post in the trade section in case there's any interest there.

DW Collector's Series True-Sonic Snare Drum 14 x 5 in., Chrome Hardware.
For Rogers lovers this is the closest thing to a brand new COB Rogers Dynasonic that DW launched a few years back.
There are some faint stick marks on the batter head and I changed the...
Both are from the late 90s, brilliant finish still shines (with fingerprints of course). Left in a cymbal bag for 15+ years untouched means it’s time to sell.
