MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT 📣
For a long time, SONOR has been very fortunate to receive countless unique drum set ideas from trustful
customers, renowned artists and other valued partners worldwide. Very often, these ideas incorporate and
combine attributes and features from different series or instruments into one extraordinarily unique SONOR
drum set.
Over time, some of these combinations started to stand out more than others. They have inspired our
experienced SONOR craftsmen to refine them with their personal touch and bring them to life in a small
assortment of limited drum sets – our Craftsmen’s Collection.
This Craftsmen’s Collection Vintage shell set features a 9-ply, 6mm shell construction with fully rounded
bearing edges. The shells are made from 8 plies of North American Maple with one outer ply of African
Marble veneer. The African Marble veneer is finished in clear high gloss lacquer that is applied in seven
lacquering and polishing stages by hand.
All hardware parts on the drums, like the Teardrop Lugs, Superprofil Hoops, Prism Claps, Bass Drum T-Rods
and Bass Drum Mount are borrowed from SONOR’s Vintage Series. The snare drum throw-off is upgraded to
the superior Dual Glide System. Finally, all hardware parts receive Ruthenium plating for the utmost luxurious
esthetics.
This Craftsmen’s Collection Vintage shell set in African Marble is limited to 100 pieces worldwide.
