This 1980 Slingerland XM5 with COB Gene Krupa snare is available near me and I don't know much about Slingys from this period. I checked out some Youtube vids of the snare which sounds great. Shell pack with snare is selling for $500 cdn. Your thoughts, opinions, reminiscing etc would be appreciated! thanks!

Killer drums the bass drum is a 3 ply shell. this is the best sound shell/ built Slingerland made the bearing edges are the sharpest they made also, Just an awesome sounding drum. go get them as long as the metal wrap is in good condition.

That snare is a great sounding drum. That one looks as if it may have been dropped by the uneven reflection around the lug. If so, it's not a big deal to straighten the shell with small block of wood and a rubber mallet working from inside the stripped shell.
If you can tell this to be true, it could give you an opportunity for some haggling!
Good Luck
