Subject: [AH] [FS] Simmons SDSV and SDS6 (UK)


> I've decided to sell my Simmons SDSV and SDS6.
>
> SDSV bought from VEMIA a few years ago. It has 7 modules: BASS, SNARE,
> TOM, TOM, TOM, CYMBAL, HI-HAT, (the HI-HAT module was professionally
> converted from a TOM module and is the equivalkent of the MK1). The
> CYMBAL module can be slightly temperamental but works fine. The case
> is in very good condition with all the knob caps present (and I have
> some spares).
>
> SDS6 is an extremely rare unit (only 100 made and this is #100). It's
> an incredible step sequencer along the lines of the TR-808 but with a
> huge LED matrix so that the entire pattern is visible. You can loop,
> create patterns in odd meters, control dynamics etc. The unit was
> serviced by James Walker by the previous owner (I'll include the
> paperwork) and is in "collector's" condition.
>
> I'm asking GBP 1500 for the pair plus shipping from London UK, but
> would really prefer local collection as shipping will be very
> expensive (the SDSV is 7kg and the SDS6 must be about the same).
