Sonar Drum Set

Hey All

Can anybody help me identify this set?

That is the swinger series (as noted by the front head). Those Ludwig copy lug housings are plastic and known to break. Other than that they are the same 6 ply beech shell as the teardrops of the earlier 70's.

This set looks nice, I think the lug spacing is the same as teardrops but i'm not sure.

Sonor teardrops:
12,13,16,20, 14x5 snare
Fibes crystallite-14x5.5 snare

Hi Gary

Thank you very much for your response.

One of the things that is odd to me about this set is the drum sizes:

Bass: 21 1/2W x 14D

Ride: 8W x 13D

Floor: 16W x 15 1/2D

By your assessment, can I safely say they are circa early 1970?

Since I'm thinking about selling this kit, I'm trying to get an idea of their value. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Michael
