Re: [Simmons Drums] SAGA-set 1984

2007-03-01 by michael.buchner@debitel.net

This was a Musicaid (Simmons) SDSV, Mark00. At that time, whole germany had
3 of them, one was owned by Herwig Mittereggeregger of "Spliff", another one
had the drummer of "The Radio", the third one I don't know. I cloned the one
of the Radio people, because Simmons wanted 6500 DM for a 5 piece set these
days. My first hex kickdrum was made of the wood from an old shoe wardrobe.
I sprayed the whole kit violet, it was nice. It was a clone, it sounded
exactly like the original and costs were some 100 DMs.
