SONOR HILITE 5 PIECE DRUM KIT
This Sonor Hilite drum set was produced in the latter end of the production run Circa 1993/94. Sonor has produced so many drums over the years, which remain relevant in the current music industry. The Sonor Hilite kit looks and sounds formidable.
The Sonor Hilite kit features fantastic innovation in every part. The features of this kit made way for the company’s future offerings, such as the Designers, Prolite, Delite, and the SQ2 series. The specification of the maple shell in the Hilite series makes the drum exciting and exceptional.
Sonor offers more Maple shell options, but nothing replicates this maple shell used in the Sonor Hilite drum kit. This makes the Sonor Hilite kit sonically unique and outstanding among all the available Sonor drums.
The maple used is the highest grade, and they are 9-ply, 7.5mm thick, and cross-laminated. The sound produced by this kit is warm with excellent definition and stick attack. The good thing is that this kit comes as a full pack with a full Sonor Hardware pack.
The four toms feature a factory standard Sonor Medium resonant heads, and the original Gold Logo on the Black EP bass drum head is fitted. This enhances the look and originality of this unique drum set.
Everything available in this kit is original, and they all work perfectly as predicted by Sonor over 25 years ago. The kit comes as a five-piece with a stunning Red Maple lacquer finish, which does not fade the color even under extreme conditions.
