Subject: Re: "Famous" owners of Simmons kit

mine (#019) was the presentation kit when the SDX was first exhibited
in 1988, originally owned by Sibi Siebert who was responsible for
distribution in Europe. So likely the first publicly presented SDX. If
you call that history? I am glad that most of my gear has not been
owned by famous people but by those who payed good money and took care
about it.
