Sonor Delite
Thin maple shells with a lightweight fitting
Delite paired very thin maple shells with minimal hardware mass, aiming at maximum shell resonance. It sat between the imported lines and the German flagship for most of its production life.

Sonor
Founded by Johannes Link in Weissenfels and rebuilt at Bad Berleburg after the war, Sonor is the oldest drum company still making drums. Its reputation rests on dense, thin beech and maple shells and on hardware heavy enough to be a running joke among drummers who move their own gear. The SQ2 system lets a buyer specify shell timber, thickness, and bearing edge drum by drum.
