Re: [Simmons Drums] SDSV Pricing

2018-11-06 by jesper

Very true in so many ways... I just finished a song with SDS-IV kick and 
snare and to this day I'm having a hard time reproducing that on other 
gear. And if the decay is too long or the click too weak, it's fixed in 
seconds compare to VA-tweaking or even worse - sampling.

But yes, Ebay prices are scary, bordering on jokes.
