Re: [Simmons Drums] ADT

2005-05-31 by Phil Murray

Hi all,

Just picked up my 2nd and 3rd SDX's at the weekend, one working, one 
not.  The non-working one is apparently ex-Howard Jones, which joins 
my ex-Brian Bennett (The Shadows) machine.

I was just wondering if 1) anyone owns more than 3 SDX's (!) and if 
anyone else out there knew any of the history of the Simmons kit 
they now own ?

And on the other point, I take the hint Patrice !  Let me know your 
address (lost your email :-( ) and I'll get a CD with the ADT 
schematics sent over.

Phil.
