Many
drummers, especially beginners will always look for drum kits, then they will
keep searching for the difference brands of drum kits.
In my
opinion, I would introduce SONOR.
Sonor is a
German percussion manufacturer, founded on 1875.
The First
Models (1942 Johannes Link Parade Snare) of drums manufactured by Sonor was a
heavy snare drum with an aluminum shell and thick tension rods.
Sonor’s
tagline was “The Rolls of drums” in 1980s as the way they constructed their
drums shells, was an allusion to the perfectionist way. Other than that,
another snare drum cast from solid metal that tipped the scales close to
100 lb.
As the 1980s
progressed, Sonor started slimming down its shells with a line called
“Sonorlite”. This marked a shift in philosophy that dictated a drum sehll
should resonate like a violin or guitar body. Further explanation, the thinner
the shell, the lower the fundamental tone (activemusician, 2012).
Sonor’s
drums is now produced with many interesting and cool design.
For
instance,
This is SQ2 Drum System.
The
official description about SQ2:
The
SQ2 Drum System represents Sonors extensive know how in drum making and sound
design. Building upon more than 130 years of manufacturing experience this new
range of instruments offers the ultimate in Sono craftsmanship. It is the
new flagship within the Sonor drum program.
As a leading manufacturer of highest
quality drums and percussion instruments Sonor has always set new standards and
opened doors to new levels of perfection. The Sonor Signature Series, first
introduced in the mid- 80s is one example. Later the SOnor Designer Series
introduced true custom design to the drumming community. Now with SQ2 Sonor
again demonstrates its innovative power and uncompromising dedication to
quality.
SQ2 is more than a new drum series. It
is an entirely new concept both of making drums and selecting drums. With an
almost unlimited variety of shell - size - finish combinations SQ2 is the most
individual drum we have ever made and the most unique one you have ever dreamed
of playing. It will let you speak with your personal musical voice. It is your
signature in sound.
