Artimus kept them and still has them to this day. As I recall, they are a 7 ply maple set and largest diameter made.

I recently found some new information right here on this site that has a diagram of the last stage setup for the entire band, including the blonde Slingerland kit. This subject fascinates me because I am a drummer. The sizes of the drum kit were just astounding to me when I found out. He jumped up from a two up, two down double bass kit (the Slingerland Chrome-O-Wood) to a four up, two down double bass setup. While I knew that it was an "oversized" kit (which was popular at the time), I always thought that the smallest tom was a 12", but in fact, it was a 13" tom...so, the setup was 13",14",15",16" single head rack toms, 18 & 20 double head floor toms and twin 24" bass drums. I saw a picture of Artimus back in the early 80s in an Modern Drummer interview where he was using portions of this kit with his band Contraband in a weird three tom (triad) setup in a triangle. Here's the stage diagram I mentioned above.

I don't know much about drum sets, but that diagram on the right sure seems like a lot!

My buddy was a drummer and he had 26" not sure what you call them but when I watched bands in Hollywood, noticed most had little 24" and they didn't look good on stage!
