@dde:... I emailed Sonor a month ago and never heard anything from them.(Poor customer service) ...Indeed. May I be of help for you? I'm from Germany and it's easy for me to make a phone call there and see what happens.Can you name, please, the exact article number (if available) or an exact spare part description? I'll go after that then.RalfNB: just thinking of another option for the search. This forum:http://www.sonormuseum.com/forum

Here is an S-class catalog page i found online below. Same drums as i have. I have the denim outfit kit drum sizes in cherry finish. All of the part numbers for every piece of hardware are on the page. Thanks.

Hi,

As promised, I had a phone call with Sonor today. They wonder why they didn't get your email?! Surely they would have replied, they said (I believe that.)

It's true, there are just some of the parts still available - unfortunately not everything. Here is the list (which you can give to the Sonor distributor in US):

- You do need a new bass drum bracket, the old one is sold out.

You can use the Sonor type no. 145.903.04

- For that basis, you furtheron need the 'middle part' of the double tom holder new: Sonor type no. 145.981.15

- Then you can add these tom arms: Sonor type no. 145.211.01 (diameter 19 mm)

- Plus two clamps: Sonor type no. 125.513.01

For the toms you have two options:

- either you mount a newer tom bracket to the shell plus any fitting tom arm

- or you use a third-party-RIM-system with any tom bracket plus a L-arm-piece.

Hope this is of help for you. To be sure, you may compare all the mentioned type nos. with the information directly on the Sonor website once more before ordering them.

Hi, I appreciate your effort and time doing that. I know i will most likely never find the original double tom holder but i can buy 2-19mm Force arms with the short end on one end from stdrums.com in Germany and use a tom rack which i have thought about but do not care for racks so i think i have decided to go with the T.A.R. mounts then get a new Sonor double tom holder which i think are as low as $59.00+shipping on ebay for a new one. Thanks again.

Mikey. I got your message but I tried to respond but your email is full. i am going to go with T.A.R. mounts or try to find the original one or another Sonor that will work. It will take some time. let me know if you have any leads. Thanks.
