Who is doing this? I knew Behringer will redo all simmons module, they already did one, and are doing all retro synths since a while. But the new simmons pad they should use better rubber "rebound" it was too much hard for wrist not good, like you hit a plywood surface and causing damage.
I have no idea..as in the link and the post..
a few key former Simmons guys collaborating to resume production of the iconic hexagonal pads.Looks like they have Simmons Blessing with the Logo being on them.
I had a SDS-V (SDS5) for in storage for years and sold it...also a TAMA Techstar kit and sold it a year or so ago to a collector in Japan...they paid up $$$ for the set.
There were both wrist breakers.I put some 6mm foam (exercise mat) and new Mylar Heads on a set of the square TAMA's for friend and it was much better....still a shock to the joints tho.
The TAMA drums had Pressed wood/particle board and used different Piezos than the ceramic discs of today..
I have a box of replacements somewhere..metal housing that screwed to the Wood.
They did work with current modules when I tried them.
