Subject: Looking to Join the Simmons 'breathren' with my first kit

From: <rogerclack@...>

Hi All,


I have just joined the Simmons group in the hope of learning more about, what I have always felt are the best looking drums on the planet!


Superb design, I love the sound (being a kid from the 80's) and I am now in a position to 'hopefully' invest in a good set which I want to play.


I have not seen any kits for sale on the board here, but I have seen some superb pictures of all your kits and wondered if anyone might be willing to part with something.


I have been scanning ebay for ages now and cannot find any good kits for sale which don't need a lot of work.


I have a seven year old son who loves the sound of Simmons, always trying to pick out the drum sound on the telly, (no we don't watch Eastenders)


I used to drum myself in the 80's and could never afford a set of Simmonds, I gave up drumming when I started my own business. Now I have the space and a seven year old who wants to learn the drums with me, I feel it is time to search for something I can take care of and he can play.


I love the SDS9 and SDSV, the yellow set on the photo pages is beautiful ;o)


Thanks All
