Open-Box SONOR 150th Anniversary Signature Drum Shell Pack - Condition 1 - Mint

You can feel the history behind the SONOR 150th Anniversary Signature shell pack the moment you sit at it. This limited-edition set recreates the original 10.5 mm beechwood Signature shell from the 1980s, built once again with the thick construction and precise shaping that defined the series. Each drum features genuine bubinga veneers on both the inner and outer surfaces, sealed beneath a high-gloss lacquer that highlights the grain while providing lasting protection. The configuration includes a 22" x 16" bass drum with double tom holder, 10" x 7" and 12" x 8" toms, 14" x 13" and 16" x 15" floor toms, and a 14" x 8" snare. Slotted tension rods, TuneSafe-equipped lugs, die-cast hoops and 24-carat gold-plated hardware complete the build, accompanied by individually numbered badges and a certificate of authenticity. It’s a modern anniversary set crafted with the same attention to detail that has shaped SONOR’s reputation for more than a century.

Authentic Beechwood Shell Construction

The 150th Anniversary Signature shell pack is built around an authentic 10.5 mm beechwood shell design modeled directly after the original 1980s Signature Series. This thick multi-ply shell follows the same construction approach and precise shaping techniques used in the historic line. Genuine bubinga veneers are applied to both the interior and exterior, faithfully matching the material layout of the original instruments. Each shell is finished in a high-gloss lacquer and paired with SONOR’s current-generation hardware, preserving the Signature heritage while bringing the build up to contemporary performance standards.

Gold-Plated Hardware With Precision Details

Every drum in the set is outfitted with 24-carat gold-plated hardware, including lugs, rods and mounting components. Slotted tension rods recreate a defining detail of the original Signature line, while modern SONOR lugs with TuneSafe provide improved tuning stability. The snare drum incorporates die-cast hoops and SONOR’s Dual Glide System, reflecting the brand’s current snare hardware engineering. Individually numbered badges and a matching certificate of authenticity further distinguish this limited-anniversary release.

Bubinga Veneers and High-Gloss Finish

Genuine bubinga veneers line both the inside and outside of each shell, consistent with the Signature Series’ premium material specification. These veneers are sealed under a high-gloss lacquer that enhances the visual depth of the grain while adding durability. The finish is applied uniformly across the bass drum, toms, floor toms and snare, maintaining a cohesive aesthetic that aligns with SONOR’s standards for commemorative and limited-production instruments.
