Sonor SQ2
Built-to-order German drum system
Drum kit · Germany
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 Vintage Series
Teardrop lugs and thin beech, reissued
Drum kit · Germany
The Vintage Series revives Sonor's 1950s and 1960s specification: thin German beech shells, rounded bearing edges, and the teardrop lug, in the small sizes those kits were actually built in.
-
Sonor Phonic
The heavy beech kits of the 1970s and 1980s
Drum kit · Germany
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 ProLite
Thin German beech shells
Drum kit · Germany
ProLite used thin beech shells with cross-laminated construction and Sonor's Tune-Safe lugs, and was the company's flagship production kit before the SQ line consolidated the top of the range.

Sakae Trilogy
Three-timber hybrid shells
Drum kit · Japan
Trilogy shells combine maple, birch, and beech in one lay-up rather than choosing between them, which Sakae argued gave the attack of birch with maple's low end.
