Frequently Asked Questions
The AQ2 utilizes a simpler construction and hardware, meaning less complex shell voicing and a slightly less refined feel compared to their Signature or Proline series.
The AQ2 legs are adequate for most players, but extremely aggressive hitters might find them a bit less stable than Sonor’s heavier-duty legs found on their premium drums.
Absolutely; the Pre-Oil hoops are standard size and readily available for replacement with other brands or materials if you want to experiment with the drum’s tone.
