Sonor mid-1960's Teardrop 5 piece all beech wood shell pack - made in "West Germany"
Very rare SONOR 1960's all beech wood 5 piece shell pack - handmade in "West Germany" consisting of double 12x8 rack toms, 16x14 floor tom, 20x14 bass drum, and 14x4.5 snare drum in blue wrap.
Say hello to your new beloved kit for the studio or flaunting around town on your favorite gigs. These German made drums have stood the test of time with many years of music creation ahead of them.
The thin 3 ply beech wood shells with single ply re-enforcement rings are warm and punchy. The re-enforcement rings combined with the thin shells creating a wide bearing edge offering muffling of overtones offering a full controlled tone.
CONDITION: All of the shells are in clean healthy condition. Incredible how well they have held up over the years. Only a few cosmetic scuffs to note along with one simple repair done to the floor tom re-ring (see below).
12x8 rack toms: each are in excellent condition. Normal wear around the tom mount receivers.
16x14 floor tom: this drum came to us with a slight separation of the bottom re-enforcement ring due to coming unglued (not cracks or damage). We expertly re-glued the re-ring making it stronger than the original build. It is also worth noting that there is a slight horizontal crack of the wrap in the middle of the drum due to separation of the wrap grain, but is structurally sound (see last picture in listing). This is very hard to see so we wanted to point it out.
20x14 bass drum: excellent shape. Normal wear on the batter side hoop from bass drum pedal toe clamp and underside of front hoop from touching the ground over the years.
14x4.5 snare drum: excellent shape. Snare throw and butt function smoothly.
🤑 PAYMENT OPTIONS: debit/credit, financing, multiple after-pay options, PayPal, and bank transfers.
