Handcrafted beech shells
Beech is prized for its bright, focused tone and lively attack. Sonor's SQ2 series beech shells offer crisp articulation and punchy projection, delivering clear highs and a well-defined midrange that cut through any mix. Their balanced response makes every drum hit sharp and dynamic, perfect for both stage and studio settings.
Precision 45-degree bearing edges
When Sonor engineered the first 45-degree bearing edge in 1975, the company could never have predicted it would go on to shape the industry in such a dramatic way. The SQ2 proudly features precision 45s on top and bottom edges to maximize head response and sustain.
150 years of drum-making expertise
Sonor's strength-enhancing Cross Lamination Tension Free (CLTF) shell construction and Optimum Shell Measurement (OSM) shell undersizing create a drum that is sonically and structurally superior to others in its class.
Tone-enhancing shell hardware
Sonor's SQ2 shells are free from rattle and tone leaching thanks to their Advanced Projection System (APS) grommets, which limit wood-on-metal contact. Meanwhile, 2.3mm Power Hoops deliver a fat, full attack and pull a wide dynamic range out of every shell.
Custom-response TAR tom mounts
Sonor's Total Acoustic Resonance (TAR) tom brackets suspend shells without rattling or inhibiting resonance. And for players who prefer a different tone for different environments, Sonor's AcoustiGate feature lets you control shell sustain in seconds.
Performance-stable TuneSafe lugs
Built into every SQ2 lug is the TuneSafe system. This prevents tension rods from vibrating loose through heavy use, even under low tension, to keep tuning rock solid between takes and in transit.
