Re: [Simmons Drums] SDX pads

2009-02-08 by Phil Murray

Cheers guys,

They're definitely not in A1 condition but it's so difficult to put a 
price on something when they so rarely come up for sale. Thanks for 
that extra info Roland, I'd completely forgotten about the difference 
in the snare connector.

Phil.

worth slightly more ESPECIALLY if it's not dry-rotted at all.
