Sonor SQ2

Built-to-order German drum system

The SQ2 is less a kit than an order form: shell timber, thickness, bearing edge, hardware, and finish are chosen drum by drum, with maple, beech, birch, and American walnut all offered in more than one thickness. Every SQ2 is made in Bad Berleburg and takes months.

  • 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.
