Sonor Pure Canadian Snares
Posted: Mon May 12, 2025 11:57 pm
“Sonor Drums in Germany & Sonor Drums Canada celebrate the launch of the PURE CANADIAN Snare Drums!
In paying tribute to the diverse landscape and culture across Canada's 13 provinces and territories, the PURE CANADIAN features a 13-ply, heavy Canadian Maple shell, available in two sizes: 14" x 6", and 13" x 6", both manufactured in Sonor's prestigious German factory!
The 14" model comes standard with Die Cast Hoops, while the 13" model ships with Sonor's steel Power Hoops. The steel action strainer system allows for fine tuning of the 2 x 8 stainless steel soundwires, and the vent hole is discretely concealed underneath the snare butt allowing more of the shell's beautiful finish to be seen! Both drums are finished in high-gloss transparent black stain, revealing the gorgeous birdseye grain of the outer layer of maple, a finish that has not been produced since the phasing out of Sonor's Designer series in 2006.”
