Ahhhh, EvilD. You sly dog! Wink

Excellent post, my friend. Really thoughtful. I wonder what XLN has in store for us?

it's like you guys did EXACTLY what I asked for, Sonor snares!!! Keep them coming, they have lots!

BUT..... you state that "The first drum ever produced by Sonor was a marching snare drum dated to 1942 ". Really??? Cause my 1975 Rosewood Phonics drums are their 100th anniversary series. AND check this out http://www.sonormuseum.com/genesis/genesis.html

I would also LOVE to see a Signature Bubinga set of Sonors from the 80s in my setup....PLEASE!

You seem to be absolutely right. I wonder what our date is from, could be the first snare manufactured in a specific factory or in a specific style.

I've asked Jakob to take a look at it. I'll make sure we correct the info. Cheers for the history lesson! Smile

That's the right step forward ! Purchased the Sonor today and couldn't be happier. My kinda Snare !

Future Kitpieces I'd love to see could definitely be RotoToms, muffled Snares a la NI's 'tea towel' option and let's not forget toms without the reso skins for that late 70s sound.
