Merci !! the best demonstration of these gorgeous drums I've seen equal to Steve Smiths Factory demo. but this one covers a lot of dynamics and nuances up close , starting with the snares off and let the drums be heard so beautifully . Drum by drum ! very thoughtful and tasty.
Superbe. Incroyable la chaleur et la couleur de cet instrument. Sonor est définitivement tout en haut de la hiérarchie des fabricants. Je joue sur une Prolite et c'est pour moi la meilleure batterie du marché actuellement.
Moi aussi ! Sonor était un peu comme un rêve inaccessible... Sauf que j'ai fini par craquer.. Seule les peaux d'origine ne sont pas à la hauteur à mon goût.. Je vais très prochainement l'équiper en emperor coated (8/10 /12/16). Quelles peaux avez-vous ?
Just inspected and played the snare drum up close at my local drum shop. It's really a thing of beauty, both visually and sonically.. I'd love to have a set of these in 12-14-20, but unfortunately, i'd have to rob a bank :)
Hi Ron, thanks for this warm comment ... I feel so small compared to some of my idols... Very humble and yet it's always encouraging to get some nice feedbacks. so thanks again.
Thanks... The COVID 19 didn't allow me to go see the people who import drums in their warehouse where we usually made these videos for every type of drumset (Ludwig, Mapex, Sonor, Gretsch, DW...). Believe me, I miss them also... Maybe they'll be back. Who knows... Best. Laurent Bataille
Thanks ! These are great drums indeed ! I would like a kit like that myself ;-)... Believe me. I'm used to play vintage kits (Slingerland, Leedy...), old drums, and this Sonor Vintage Serie really have the vintage tones without any inconvenient ... Simply great !!!
Hello :) What sticks were used in this video? Alo-- this is probably the best video demo I've heard to date. Totally allows listener to hear nuances. Great technique and feel! Thanks!
Hi and sorry to answer this late... Thanks for your kind words and the sticks are Bopworks Storyville only from USA... Very light sticks inspired by the models that Shelly Manne, Art Blakey or Mel Lewis (and many others) were playins in the 60's... Hope this helps.
Don't know if it's a compliment but anyway, it's Laurent Bataille, jazz drummer, journalist for BATTEUR and teacher both in Paris and Bordeaux Conservatories. Thanks for watching !

Best video of this set. Sensible tuning and playing.
Many Thanks for that compliment ... ;-)
Finally, I found a properly tuned vintage kit.
Thanks... Always nice to read a nice feedback ;-)
That’s some real fine improvisational drumming!

Sorry, I was on my son's account... Same answer with the official BATTEUR Magazine account ;-)
Wish you still made videos.
