Handcrafted maple shells
Maple is the gold standard for stage and studio drums. Sonor's SQ2 Series maple shells deliver warmth, cut, and balance across the entire audible tonal spectrum, with pronounced lows that ground you to every tom fill and kick flourish in your arsenal.
Precision 45-degree bearing edges
When Sonor engineered the first 45-degree bearing edge in 1975, they could have never 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.
More than 140 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.
