GC's going at it again with the SD9K

Here they go again!

Saw it today in a GC store. 
Looks better than their previous cheap Chinese kits but still not a 
REAL Simmons kit.
Check out the hex shape on the back of the pads, though ;)

Gotta say the sound module looks pretty cool, with big display, USB and 
memory card slot.

Didn't have time to check all the preset kits; seems they got some 
decent 'vintage Simmons' sounds in there too.

At a thousand bucks for the whole set, I wonder how much they'll put a 
dent in Roland's market.
