Sonor 150th Anniversary Shell Set

At the beginning of 2025, Sonor kicked off the anniversary year with the release of the very exclusive and highly limited anniversary instruments.

Like the regular AQ2, the shells in this set are made from a combination of North American and Chinese maple.

This limited edition uses an ebony replica veneer for the outer layer of the shell and the hoops.

The shell hardware is also based on the tried-and-tested components of the AQ series. 

These include the die-cast zinc AQ lugs with TuneSafe, the free-swinging Smart Mount tom holder and the DTH 4000 double tom holder.

All nameplates in the set are embossed with the Sonor anniversary logo. This is also part of the exclusive bass drum front heads.
