The Kompressor Beech brings out a full, rich tone thanks to its beech shell and Sonor's proprietary Cross-Laminated Tension Free shell technology. Optimum Shell Measurements allow the head to have perfect contact at any tuning. TuneSafe lugs work with Remo drumheads to provide exceptional tuning stability right out of the box. With the Kompressor Beech Snare Drum, you can achieve the punchy and authoritative sound Sonor drums are famous for.

Achieve Signature Kompressor Sound With the Beech Shell

The heavy beech shell of the Kompressor Beech Snare Drum gives it the powerful, cutting snare sound the Kompressor series is known for. Beech provides a full, rich tone with clear articulation. The 12-ply, 8mm thick shell ensures you'll get superb resonance and projection. Combined with Sonor's Cross-Laminated Tension Free shell technology, the Kompressor Beech shell vibrates freely and evenly for excellent dynamic range.

Dial in Your Sound With Optimum Shell Measurements

Sonor uses Optimum Shell Measurements on the Kompressor Beech for consistent head-to-shell contact, regardless of tuning. The slightly undersized diameter allows the drumhead to have perfect contact with the shell at any pitch you dial in. This allows you to fine tune your snare sound, from a tight, crackling snare tone to a deep, booming pitch. The head and shell work together seamlessly thanks to Optimum Shell Measurements.

Achieve Rock-Solid Tuning Stability

The Kompressor Beech Snare Drum gives you exceptional tuning stability, ideal for live playing situations where you need your drums to hold their pitch. This tuning stability comes from two design factors - the TuneSafe lugs and Remo drumheads. The die-cast TuneSafe lugs hold tension extremely well, even under heavy playing. Combined with quality Remo heads, you can count on your tuning staying put. The Kompressor Beech Snare Drum holds pitch even through dynamic, hard-hitting performances.

German Craftsmanship for Versatile Playability

Handcrafted in Germany, the Kompressor Beech Snare Drum benefits from Sonor's meticulous attention to quality and playability. The snare throw-off, snare wires, 2.3mm steel hoops and other hardware are engineered for responsiveness and feel. With its wide range of available sizes, from 13" to 15", the Kompressor Beech Snare Drum suits drummers across musical genres who want a versatile, extremely playable wood snare drum.
