1950's Slingerland 'New Super Gene Krupa' Snare Drum

5.5 x14

Dog Tag Badges dates this beauty from 1953-1956

Overall this drum is in good used condition. The shell is structurally sound, free of extra holes, and in good working order.

The red sparkle finish is clean and vibrant. Wrap is holding well at the seams and free of cracks. Finish shows gently but even aging around the drum.

Chrome hardware is in good working order. Drum features chrome over brass hoops and a smooth clamshell strainer. Chrome shows some standard signs of use & age, surface scratches and some pitting. Includes correct snare wires for the throw.

Bearing edges are clean and the shell takes modern Remo heads a bit snug. Drum tunes nicely.

Complete and ready to go.
