In 2016 Sonor introduced the One of a Kind Poisonwood and Pacific Walnut Burl snare drums at NAMM 2016. These limited drums are the very top of the line of the Sonor snare program.

Each series features an extremely limited run of special designed snare drums with spectacular natural grown veneers and new shell designs. For each edition a certain tree has been selected with the goal in mind to only use the most exiting parts of the grain and set them to perfectly set vertical grain patterns. Vertical outside veneer grains have been introduced through Sonor in 1973 and a the companies trademark ever since.

All veneers are sourced at specialized suppliers in Germany, which guarantee that these trees come from environment friendly sources and are exported/ imported legally.

The instruments badges highlight laser cut mallet shaped logos, made out of the same veneer that is used on the snares itself.
