It's German engineered and features Sonor's famous 7-ply all maple shell construction, this consists of 4-plies of Canadian maple and 3-plies of Chinese maple wood. This generates an impressive sound of an even amount of highs and mids, with a slightly warm low. It's perfect for all-purpose drumming. Like I previously mentioned, not only does it offer a great sound, the floor tom also looks amazing! It's styled in a unique Aqua Silver Burst finish, complimented with the newly designed shell hardware. The style is rounded off with the prominent Sonor AQ2 Drum Badge.
