I own a set of sds8 pads which are black in colour. I want to paint them white, but I am wondering if this will devalue the pads? especially as they have the original stickers in place. Was the black kit a common one? What colours are rare?

The SDS8 pads had been produced in black, white, red and blue. Black, white and red are pretty common colors while bllue is a rare one. If you paint them they will definetely loose value, on the other hand they are not the most valuable pads even in good condition --- In Simmons_Drums@yahoogroups.com, "milosakhamun" <milosakhamun@...> wrote:

Hi Matt, are you sure also the SDS8 pads appeared in yellow? Not only the MarkIII (SDS9 etc...)? Wolfgang --- In Simmons_Drums@yahoogroups.com, "Matt" <sds5@...> wrote:

I guess you are right, Matt. At least the catalogue says "5 colors" --- In Simmons_Drums@yahoogroups.com, "superwolle70" <superwolle70@...> wrote:

Hi guys Yes, they DID come in Yellow!! I owned a set of them here in New Zealand, bought them brand new from the NZ dealer, ex-Split Enz musician Paul Crowther. Sold them in the early 90's. Tried tracking them down last year, but no luck... :( cheers all, Gwyn, ________________________________
