Hi my name is Roger i am 36 from the uk

i have uploaded to the photo gallery ,a gallery of digital camera
pics of my sds7 at 20 yrs old and still going strong :-)

my kit was 20 yrs old on 10th April 2005
i originally paid £1832 for it back on 10th april 1985

my kit has a selector pad , not shown , 5 drums , sds7 brain with
internal ziff sockets , as well as an additional set of chips to swap
into the sds7 brain - entitled mgea-kit
my amplifier is a carlsbro 90 watt keyboard combo

i was lucky enough to meet Dave Simmons a few times at the simmons
factory in the late 80's, and play on a huge sds7 kit in the factory
with electronic cymbals - hi hat etc - good memories :-))))

i live near to the original simmons factory in st albans, herts, uk
which has since been torn down and replaced with a vw car dealership.

i play on my sds7 most weeks - i can be contacted by email at
troffmeister@...

enjoy the uploaded pics and happy simmons drumming

Roger :-)
