SDSV and SDS8

SDSV and SDS8

2017-08-10 by Kent

Folks,

I am thinking about letting go of my SDSV collection (for now).  I can already see myself regretting this decision but i do need the money for my sons' school tuition.  Yup, he's heading to university!  I thought posting here to obtain more information would be appropriate before listing it on eBay or Reverb.  I am not sure if there's enough interest here and i would rather see it goes to a collector as oppose to someone buying and reselling at a ridiculous price!

What I have are the following:

SDS8 brain with 4 black pads and bass (no spur and arm/mount) great working condition and trigger perfectly.

SDS7 (3 black pads) trigger perfectly.

1 SDSV unit (bass, snare and 3 toms) all triggers, although one of the tom cards at times doesn't make sound but then fire up again.  I suspect it just need some cleaning or you can move it to another slot...Jesper can probably answer this better than i am.

1 SDSV unit (3 toms only) trigger perfectly

10 black SDSV pads (4 of which uses King hardware which i have).
2 SDSV bass (1 black and 1 white), 1 comes with spur.

I do not know what i can get for these and was hoping someone can answer.  If there's any interest, please contact me.  Again, i am not looking to profit from this but i do need the money for my son.  I am hoping it would go to a collector.  I'll be happy to answer any question and provide more details and pictures.

Thanks.

Kent
