Hey all -
So a fellow co-worker of mine said he was interested in selling his old vintage Sonor kit. I looked it up on the Sonor Museum site, and it looks to be a 1965 K100 Star Outfit (apparently, Kenny Clarke played one, as he was on the cover of the '65 US catalog with it). But the catalog doesn't state that it was available in a natural finish, they just listed wraps. This one looks like natural beechwood.
The sizes listed are 14x20, 8x13, and 14.5x16. He's also including a matching thick-shelled snare drum that I think was custom built by someone else.
Anyway, here some pictures. Perhaps some of our Sonor experts here can shed more light on it? I'm thinking about getting it because I've always been a fan of the vintage Sonors, and who wouldn't want to play the Sonors that Bernard Purdie used to track all those Beatles hits anyway?
