The throwoff is Sonor.The Henk's snare is nice job but it can be called as a some rebuilded conglomerate drum on motives "Sonor Orchestra 52" because an original is a throwoff only. 1. Orchestra snare haven't wood shell. This shell persistently remind me one of the Trowa kinds with internal throwoff or some Tromsa shells, or some Tacton after Lefima era and we can see undefined extra holes on this beech shell.2. Orchestra snare haven't single flanged hoops.3. Orchestra snare haven't Imperial lugs.4. Orchestra snare haven't such a primitive muffler, but original is the long stange with parallelogram drop felt plate and fixed with two screws on the shell.It seems to me that someone reassembled this snare before Dennis and Henk.I'm not a great expert..., my vision, no more...George.
I wouldn`t badge it and I don`t think henk will either. But he left the history of the drum on the inside. I think it had the red script logo.
Anyway, I was looking at the 1950 cat. and they have the Super Extra on the bottom with sensitive strainer and imperial lugs. It has wood shell imperial lugs and an option to get a different damper. Above that is the concert/jazz model. It has an option for wrap which means wood shell. There is no picture for these. I believe that there is no image because it`s made to order. Most concert and jazz drummers select size, lug count and trim which makes showing a picture moot.
Everything on that red drum is Sonor, including the shell. To say the shell is not Sonor and not show me the shell`s joint for any other brand claimed is not convincing at all. Other drum Co`s made the reinforced joint recessed into the re-ring, but did not make it with the same width.
I need to see a Trowa or Tromsa Or any other German shell construction with similar joint design and same #`s to be convinced otherwise. Henk has plenty of old Sonor to match up to and If he says it`s Sonor, It more than likely is. I see nothing but Sonor too !i
