I'm going to look at a 65 Leedy in Blue pearl glass glitter. It is a 12" rack tom, 20" bass and a 14" 6 lug snare. No floor tom but it appears to be in very good condition. What is the ballpark value? Again the wrap is nice and the chrome is very clean.
Thanks
It used to be that slingerleedy's would go for the same amount as a like Slingerland kit,last couple of sales I saw looked like they went for a bit more,say 15 per cent.
The Slingerleedys don't command prices like the originals. I have seen a few 60's era slingerleedy's and liked them a lot.
The six lug snares are great Blues/shuffle drums IMO, but are not commanding a lot of money,I don't think.Just like Sling 6 luggers.
Finding a matching 14 or 16 is probably not going to be easy,but you could find a blue glass glitter slingy FT to use while you are looking.
Since the ft would be so hard to find and the snare is not worth a lot,I would say 600.00 to 700.00 tops if they are all original and in good shape.
Good luck and I hope you get them,I really dig those Leedy lugs.
Totally agree with you on the 6-lug Slingerleedy. I picked one up for like 60 bucks thinking I was gonna flip it and couldn't let it go. Really nice sounding drum. As a matter of fact it sent my pre-serial pioneer packing.
