First post here. I need the snare tension adjuster for a mid 60s Sonor. It is not the standard "dead end" type of butt end that has two bolts securing it to the shell. Rather It is single post mounted through the shell and at the end of the post has an adjuster round thumb screw with a swivel that the string holding the snares is tied to. Turn the screw tightens the tension of the snares. My drum is missing this.On the other side of drum is the chrome snare "throw off" lever. Nowdays drum manufacturers incorporate it all in one mechanism with. Why Sonor did this type is anyones guess. If anyone has one in chrome (or copper) I'd like to buy it. hmddj
you should put this in the buy sell or trade, or restoring vintage drums forum.
it isn't likely to be seen here. there are a few people around looking for these parts and a few people who have them.
