Re: [Simmons Drums] Eprom set on eBay

2006-02-03 by R. M. Hammond

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?
