THIS IS A RARE POWERHOUSE SNARE DRUM FROM SLINGERLAND!! We don't see these very often! It's a 12 lug 8x14 chrome over maple snare with the Magnum throwoff. The snares are full contact and the condition is very, very good. This is a loud rockgod snare that will not be intimidated by any guitar amp! The famous double fl**ged Slingerland hoops pretty much guarantee no miss rim shots. $525.00
