Sonor Safari

[VIbes]

Hi all, Check out this little Sonor set that arrived at my place yesterday.
I love this little kit. It sounds amazingly good. Just set it up this morning and will give a revue and possibly a video clip later.

Way to go there Vibes, nice arrival at your place! Look'n good with those flat bottoms stands too. Does the kick come with or need a riser? Looks like fun.

It came with a thick chromed riser.
Fits under the batter side. It's nice. a couple centimeters to thick.
Only problem is some vintage pedals won' fit. no speed king, umm ??
The 16" bass drum sounds really good. This is a nice set.
I am going to play on it like the cadbury gorilla and see if it holds up.
I know it will. This set is like the smaller kid in school who is tough and everyone respects.

Nice kit! I was just talking to a friend about those drums (Sonor Safari) yesterday....and here they are!

Nice choice...beauties

Thats a sweet little kit. Wouldn't cause too many hassles taking that around to gigs n whatnot.

16" bass? ..lol, I was wondering why that snare looked so big! Very cool VIbes! Is that a10" tom and 14" FT? Sweet!

[VIbes]

yes, 16" Bass 14" floor tom, 10" tom, and 14" snare.

At first glance I was wondering why you called it the little Sonor. I thought the bass looked kind of small compared to the snare and then after reading the thread and measurements then it all made sense. Nice little kit

Those bass drum style hoops are a nice touch. It look like a bass drum and not a floor tom turned to its side.

[Bonebreak]

They sound good but I found a crack on the inside of the floor tom. Not sure if I should let that go or not.

Heck no, you shouldn't let it go!!!! Did you buy them new? Time to at least exchange the floor tom.

That is excellent customer service. I'm glad to see they are taking very good care of the situation.

Sonor "live" Great Company. Great Drums. Great service. They sent me another set.

I liked my Safari kit so much I figured if they sounded that good what would a better quality Sonor kit sound like��!! Never really thought of Sonor before. At 69 years young, purchased the first new kit I’ve ever had!! A Sonor Vintage Black Slate!! Sizes: 20, 10, 12, 14 and 14 x 6.5 snare. Absolutely love and have found my dream kit!!
Probably will try and sell the Safari kit. I also have a Tama Superstar Custom kit also for sale. I my age one good set is all I need!!
