Hi !

I ordered my new kit on tuesday and got it today... That was
very fast... My local dealer is so cool ! Anyway, Sonor does
not makes a kit with the config I wanted so I had to order every
parts separatly (speling ???)... That was more expensive but I
got exactly what I wanted: 18"X16" bass drum, 14"X14" floor
tom, 10"X8" rack tom and 14"X5,5 snare...

The bass drum don't have the volume of a 22" or 20" but the tone
is just wonderfull, even with the stock Remo UT heads... I tryed
it low and it sound rock but will tune it med high for that famous tone
I like... It sound round with less attack that my 20" Sonor birch...
Should be perfect with a coated PS3 or frosted EQ4...

The finish is white sparkles and from what I can see, flawless !!
The tom and floor tom sound warm and full frequencies, again,
compared to my 2005 birch... (same high but more mid and low)
The Remo UT head on the toms are OK but will probably change
them with the classic Remo Ambassador coated... I like coated
sound better...

Just one pic for now... more to come...

oh sweeet lord!!! now thats what i have been wanting for since long. similar sizes and color.
trouble is that it is costing me three times the money here in india!!

i am jealous and happy for you!
 
Nice config and great sizes! Normally I'm not a fan of white drums but I am a fan of sparkles, this combo looks great!

I also like how you went with the 10" tom, I use to have a sonor 2005 and I loved the sound of my 10X8 w/ coated ambys on them.
 
WOAH!!! BEAUTIFUL!
sound clips? pics of you playing?
:) i ordered the same config in autumn fade minus the snare and hardware in july, and all i've heard from them is a vague "after christmas..."!

That is ONE amazing looking kit. The sparkle looks amazing.

Your bass drum would make a great floor tom!!!

Man, Sonor is a great company. I had a 3005 for a while and loved it. Nothing but great things to say!!
 
Wow, I`m simply impressed! With the Force line Sonor really offers awesome drums for awesome prices. Congratulations, that`s a very beautiful kit!

Where did you get this particular configuration (18", 10", 14")? Do they offer this configuration as a set? I thought about getting one before I decided to go for another (very "near") option.

Happy playing! :)

Karl, Karl, Karl you didn't read the entire post.
This should help you with your question.
Just kidding.

Haha, you`re right. Seriously, I was so impressed by the pic I didn`t read carefully. =)
Thanks for letting me know, I`ve seen this configuration on Sonor`s website and first thought they would offer it as a regular set.

Unfortunatly they do not...

Thanks again,

Karl
 
really stunning kit you have there.. youll have to youtube yourself playing it so we can all hear it.
 
Hi !

Great looking drums. Classy white Sonors. Well done, my man. And those most recent pictures, very Adam West - era Batman...
 
I play a lot of classic rock but my biggest influence
in drum is John Densmore from The Doors... So, Doors
covers and I try to play some jazz riff but I'm not so good
at it... But I love jazz patern so I practice a lot...

I'm in the jazz mood since about a year so
that explain the small bass drum and 10" tom...

I just ditch the stock heads for some coated G1
over clear G1 and the sound is very warm, mellow,
without attack... for soft playing... I still have my 20"
bass drum kit for louder music...

Thanks !!

Philippe
