The Sonor Phonic Reissue Snare Drum is a modern recreation of the iconic Phonic Series that defined an era of drumming excellence. Every detail — from the slotted tension rods and Phonic double lugs to the classic badge and veneer — captures the look and legendary sound of the original.
Crafted from high-quality beech using Sonor’s CLTF (Cross Laminated Tension Free) and OSM (Optimum Shell Measurement) methods, this snare delivers the warm, articulate tone and focused projection that made the Phonic line so sought after. The modern TuneSafe system ensures reliable tuning stability, while die-cast hoops add crisp rimshots and consistent tuning.
