A Happening Little Maple Club Kit

If you're looking for a hip little kit to gig out with, the Sonor AQ2 Maple Safari fits the bill. This 4-piece maple shell pack is perfect for funk, hip-hop, and swing ensembles, especially on quieter stages. Shells are built from rich, broadband maple and topped with a set of great-looking wraps for a professional fit and finish. Hardware advantages come in the form of Sonor's SmartMount tom-mounting system, which reduces metal-on-shell contact for greater resonance and sustain, and redesigned die-cast lugs, which are tour safe and tuning sound.

A natural choice for jazz to hip-hop

The Sonor AQ2 Maple Safari shell pack delivers what so many club-sized kits promise: a defined backbeat and gnarly rimshot; tom tones that'll stick to your ribs; and a fast, punchy kick that feels great feathered and sits in the pocket. Whether you're a gigging drummer or stocking your stage, Sweetwater has plenty of good things to say about the AQ2 Maple Safari. Just ask one of our Sales Engineers.

7-ply maple shells

The AQ2 Maple Safari's all-maple shell recipe yields a traveler's kit with rich, focused tone and pro musicality. Four plies of Canadian maple plus three plies of Chinese maple make for shells that do it all, from hip-hop to bebop. Great-looking finish options give the AQ2 Maple Safari a professional look to match its quality tones.

Easy to pack up and play

Whether you've got a small vehicle or a long walk to the stage, your body and bandmates will thank you for gigging with the Sonor AQ2 Maple Safari.

Die-cast lugs

The AQ2 Maple Safari's newly designed die-cast lugs equip this kit for precision tuning and durability to survive a tour — not to mention a look that Sonor fans will love.

SmartMount tom mount

A lug-contacting suspension SmartMount prevents direct shell contact in your AQ2 Maple Safari's high tom, maximizing resonance and sustain.

Rated 5/5

Great little kit

Best sounding compact kit I've ever played. Great tone from the 7 ply maple. Stock heads are very usable. The 16"x15" kick is surprisingly big sounding and records easily. Great price as well.
Rated 5/5

This kit is so perfect

I got this at a local music store for 500 because there was a tiny chip in the front bass drum hoop (not a problem for me) it sounds super good, you can't go wrong buying this I play a lot of different styles and the tuning range works for all of them rock, drum n bass, reggae, jazz, the kick is so awesome it can be a detailed little kick sound like a compact kick or you can get this giant (and I mean giant) kick like it's a 22 inch especially if you eq it right, and the snare oh the snare it's so beautiful to play, and so easy to tune which shocked me, I've never liked the look of white washers on drums but these look good with the kit
Music background: I've been playing drums for 4 years and I make music
