Vintage Simmons Drums (UK) Users Group

It was so wonderfully silent after Kent mentioned the auction so I 
thought everyone was biding their time. I guess they still are and now 
the price will rocket through the roof... ;)

I was annoyed noone had bid so I put in 555 the other day. Now someone 
else is in the lead and I'm kind of glad 'cause I don't need another! :)

Good to hear it's working and looking as expected. So guys and gals - 
sell your loved ones and get one of the coolest drum synths around!
