Drum Solo Workout On 1976 Buddy Rich Slingerland TDR Snare Model

One of the best snare drums that Slingerland made for Buddy Rich was this 5.5x14 ten lug model back in 1976. This had the new 5 ply maple, poplar, maple, poplar, maple shell which was a thick shell. It had the new TDR strainer with the snares going across the entire bottom head. Also new was 3 vent holes to get a crisper sound. The rims were the straight edge hoops which Buddy liked best for rim shots. A very clear and crisp sounding snare drum that projects so well when I use it with my Big Band.
