Sonor Phonic

The heavy beech kits of the 1970s and 1980s

Phonic is the Sonor most drummers picture: dense beech shells, chrome-heavy hardware, and a low, controlled tone that made the kits fixtures in European studios. Original Phonic drums are collected as seriously as any American vintage kit.

  • 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.
