Simmons SDS-9 anywhere to get replacement pots?

2016-07-24 by Chris Wareham

Hi folks,

I've just acquired a slightly unwell SDS-9. It needs some replacement 
potentiometers and plastic knobs, so I was wondering if anyone knew 
where to get suitable ones from.

The other issue is that the sampled sounds (snare and rim) don't work. 
Digital electronics are beyond my limited electronic repair abilities, 
so I was also wondering if group members could recommend any repair 
people with previous Simmons experience. I'm in the UK, but would 
happily ship the unit for repair elsewhere in Europe.

Chris
