G'day Guys,
Here's a seller pic for the snare I bought last week, seller has now found a shipping box so it should be on it's way today. I put up the serial number as I suspect someone here sold it a couple of years ago. Any input/mojo would be great.
Its coming UPS so should take up "Australian Citizenship" early next week.
Cheers
It appears you have contracted Slingerland fever mate.Nice drum.They sound real nice too.Good luck with it.Cheers

I agree completely!....you're a very sick man & the only cure is to immediately ship this drum to me upon arrival in the land of OZ!...after that you must contact bunnyman, he will absolve you of your sins & transgressions & make you drink really nasty tasting alcoholic beverages. Cool1
Slingy addiction (IMHO) is a wonderful thing!...really great drums & not nearly as expensive as Rogers!...unfortunately, I'm addicted to both. Got a new Ludy Super Sens a couple weeks ago & feel a new insanity creeping in!...BUNNYMAN!...I NEED A SHOT! Eye Ball
Nice drum Steve!

Thanks Steve & Dan.
Yep,
It looks pretty clean in the other pics too but I can't post them as they reflect the face of the seller.. he may not approve of that. I am looking forward to this one.. first 10 lugger Slingerland that I have had.
The serial number puts it pretty much in vintage with the "Thunder Down Under" kit.,, so thats where she'll sit.
I admit.. Slingo fever has set in big time...
Cheers
Nice score longjohn.
That will suit your kit to a tee!
If you 'aint played one of these before you're gunna love it, trust me.
Great to see Slingy fever alive and well here in Oz brother!
Cool1 drum, enjoy man!
Stevo.
LongJohn,If thats the snare i told you about..Iam glad you get it..Like when members can work with each other to get the drums they are looking for...Mikey
Oh man, that looks like a really nice one.... !!!
Congratulations!!
Thanks All,
I'm not out of the woods yet though.. Apparently UPS wanted 480 bucks to ship to OZ..?? Sounds a bit much to me... we decided go back to USPS Priority Air, but the "bloody box" was too big for them.. Seller is now looking for a smaller box & I am still waiting to hear whats happening..
It will get here somehow..
Thanks Stevo,
There can't be too many Slingerland "Tragics" down here, Maybe we form a club (just the two of us).
Mikey,
Its not the one, but thanks. I was on to John's one when I spotted this one, the serial number (vintage), & zoomatic veered me to this one instead.

You should have the seller check the shipping cost at Priority not Priority Air..Priority would be less should be about 100.00-125.00 if the seller is in the U.S. Mikey
Thanks Mikey,
I have passed that on to the seller... and yes he's in the USA. I have paid 127.50 USD for postage..(so far)..
Good news is, he has now found a smaller box that should comply with USPS..
I should now have a tracking number by tomorrow...It's been a long week... I am now pouring a stiff scotch on the rocks.
