I've been seeing these Slingerland mounts and legs in a couple of threads lately, and every now and then on eBay. Model 1280They are in a 1951 Slingerland accessories catalog (probably elsewhere as well, but that's the only accessories catalog I have), but not on any cataloged Slingerland outfits that I can find.LandenLarry and SkyDog75 have them on late 50s/early60s bass drums.The models I'm seeing in catalogs are the 727 folding or 727 telescoping and the 1279 hoop mounted versions, but never the 1280 anywhere.Anyone have a catalog where the 1280 appears on a bass drum?Anyway, here's a page from the catalog, and I borrowed a pic from SkyDog75's post for reference....Help !! Thanks !!
Hey,Kev on the 1280 spur's in question.Slingerland did offer these spur's in the mid to late 1950's..Not to many bass drum's came with them on..But when Slingerland came out with the "Artist" model drum's in about 1962 or 63,these spur's were used.."Artist" model drums are the one's with center lug's[[like ludwig club date's]] these were the spur's s/l used..The spur's were used from 62-63 to about 1977 or so when S/L stop makeing the "artist" model drums[[set's]]Oh in 1971 or 72 Slingerland change the name of the artist drums to "Stage Band" and only made the tom's in 8x12.9x13.14x14.14x16 bass drums were 12x20.14x20,12x22,14x22.12x24,...Mikey
