Sonor Drums At NAMM 2012


We swung by the Sonor booth to check out the new maple-shell Pro Lite drum kit. The new line replaces the German drum maker's Delite and S-Class drum kits, and comes in a wide range of matte, high gloss lacquer, and veneer finishes, and a choice of three configurations. We also got a peek at two exclusive tom-and-bass drum "shell pack" kits only available to Sonor Certified Dealers, as well as the new Mikky Dee model snare drum.

SONOR Drums Germany Signature Series

The PURE CANADIAN SONOR Snare Drums


Sonor Drums in Germany & Sonor Drums Canada celebrate the launch of the PURE CANADIAN Snare Drums! In paying tribute to the diverse landscape and culture across Canada's 13 provinces and territories, the PURE CANADIAN features a 13-ply, heavy Canadian Maple shell, available in two sizes: 14" x 6", and 13" x 6", both manufactured in Sonor's prestigious German factory! The 14" model comes standard with Die Cast Hoops, while the 13" model ships with Sonor's steel Power Hoops. The steel action strainer system allows for fine tuning of the 2 x 8 stainless steel soundwires, and the vent hole is discretely concealed underneath the snare butt allowing more of the shell's beautiful finish to be seen! Both drums are finished in high-gloss transparent black stain, revealing the gorgeous birdseye grain of the outer layer of maple, a finish that has not been produced since the phasing out of Sonor's Designer series in 2006. WAIT! Here's the best part! In addition all the unique exclusive features that these drums offer, the drum will ship to you with the Pure Canadian badge on the front of the drum, but on the opposite side, it will feature a rubber gasket and four screws. This is where it get's fun! When you purchase your Pure Canadian snare drum, you simply fill out the included postcard and mail it to Sonor Drums Canada, and in a short time, Sonor will send you your very own limited edition Pure Canadian brass badge, containing YOUR SIGNATURE!!! As if these snares weren't cool <b>...</b>
