Vintage Simmons Drums (UK) Users Group

Hello there

First time ive used this site so here goes,

I have for sale 3 Simmons kits in various states of workig order. I 
was thinking of putting them on e-bay but I,ll give this a go first.

In brief. Kit 1 SDS9 Very good condition for age. Recently bought of 
e-bay. Works well through PA but headphone socket noisey. Colour 
Black complete with Simmons rack.

Kit 2 SDS9 Poor condition. Stopped working suddenly about 10 years 
ago.It would trigger but no output The idea was to use the working 
kit to repair the this one but I have no time. Rack is very rusty and 
fittings and clamps starting to fail.Writing on brain is very faided 
4 knobs broken.Pads Black and Black/White

Kit 3 SDS7 Stopped using this kit when I bought first SDS9. Has 7 
soundcards but the base drum one stopped working, Base drum pad and 3 
normal pads have xlr outputs. Other 2 pads have jacks but are in very 
poor condition. Also with this kit is the square box that has the 16 
Simmons hexagonal shapes on which when hit will change the selected 
kit. I never used this so I dont know if it works. Also comes with 
Memory Cassette and 4/5 additional e-proms. No rack with this kit but 
base drum has origonal spurs.

I think my e-mail adress shows with this message so if anyone is 
interesrted I will try to get back to them. If no interest look on e-
bay soon and you may grab some cheap 70s stuff.

Hi!

Do tell us prices and we might buy! :) Also consider splitting stuff... I'd 
like some loose voice boards from the SDS-7...
And another thing, none of these Simmons sets are from the 70's!

Hi there
   
  Have been away for weekend. Give me a little time and I will give you a firm price. I paid £250 for this kit + £50 delvery. If I can get my money back I will be happy. I live near Braintree Essex UK so if you are near enough and want to see the kit it will be ok.
   
  Speak soon

Hello all again

As mentioned before 3 kits for sale in differnt state of repair. 

Prices

For the good SDS9, I paid £250 on e-bay + £50 postage so if that 
money interests anyone let me know.

The 'poor' condition SDS9 & SDS7 between £150 -£200 if all sold 
together + postage. Will also include Roland Drum Machine TR 626 if 
near top end of asking price.

I live in UK near Stansted airport ( check Google earth) and am happy 
to let people see kits before sale.

I think these are reasonable prices but if I am wrong please accept 
my appolgies. 

I have been honest with description of kits so please take note of 
conditon of items being offered. I will give it a couple of days then 
list on e-bay. To the guy that corrected me about the age of this 
gear I stand corrected.

Take care all

Jon

Hello Jimmy
