Pre-WW2 Sonorus drumkit

Loading...

Hi, I'd like your opinion & comments on a drumkit I recently discovered - It's from heritage, I don't know the exact age, the brand Sonorus is Belgian but they have little info on the history & models on their website.

I made a small album online: http://myalbum.com/album/mNussHh94lXd

Looking foreward to your reactions on this forum!

You could also mail me: [email]sonorusdrumkit@telenet.be[/email]

Thanks,

Stefaan

Hi Stefaan, I have a snare that looks like yours a lot. You should contact member stedi, he's belgian and i believe he knows quite a bit about sonorus. Very nice and interesting kit you have there. Are you going to play it?

Yes, I saw your snare - looks like exactly identical, except for the coating. The one I'm presenting has some kind of yellow marble (?) wrap, as you have seen.

The kit is not mine, and I won't be playing it - it would be a pitty to damage anything. The owners asked for my help on identifying & gathering details on the history. They are in doubt what to do with it: since it's from heritage, they feel attached to it. But they don't have the space to display it, and nobody plays drums. But it IS a charming set ...

Cool kit !!

I have used this 'Superior Class' kick pedal in 70's for a long time before it was stolen after one gig...

Cheers,

George.
