Subject: Re: [Simmons Drums] Eprom set on eBay

Thanks for everyone's input.

I just wrote the guy and he told me that he has the original eprom
set that he copies from with a gang programmer and NOS blank eproms.

so...acording to him these are bit for bit digital copies of the
original simmons eproms.

Any ideas on what a set of ten "copies" would be worth?
