Here we have a humongous 10 piece Sonor Force 3000 all finished in Scandinavian Birch complete with a matching snare drum, 5 toms, 1 floor tom and 3 bass drums!
The Force 3000's main features are the amazing sound and tone generated from the Birch Shells. The build and material quality and the great selection of drum sizes. Like all Sonor products at this time, the Force 3000 was "Made in Germany."
The high quality of the Force 3000 sound was the result of a new birch shell construction at the time. The even and durable fiber structure of select plies of birch is the foundation for the drums clear resonance and powerful attack. The drums have 9-ply, 7.5mm cross-laminated shells (bass drums are 11-ply, 8.5mm) and have traditional Sonor precision 45 degree bearing edges. This combination enable a clear precise tone. The Force 3000 design is the consequent development of Sonor's new visual appearance. The one-piece tubular style lugs (taken from the HiLite series) have a modern look, and actually relieve shell stress when tension is applied.
Another feature of Force 3000 drums is their high quality finish and this one is offered in the stunning Scandinavian Birch which has a highly figured grain.
This kit has the best of everything Sonor had to offer in the 90's, 100% Birch Shells as per the Lite Series (very similar in sound), the stunning and still futuristic looking HiLite style Hi-Tension Tubular lugs, awesome design cues such as the bass drum spur memory gauges for the forward angle and leg height markers the list goes on!
This is a fantastic opportunity to get a thorough set of sizes from this highly regarded Birch series.
