A compact and affordable jazz kit with an incredible sound — you’ll get that and much more with the Sonor AQX Jazz shell pack. The Sonor AQX Jazz presents a lightweight variation on the common jazz configuration that gigging drummers will truly appreciate. From cafes to small clubs and worship services, the Sonor AQX Jazz shines in intimate venues, with a vintage tone derived from its 100% poplar shells. Plus, the Sonor AQX Jazz kit includes Sonor’s SmartMount tom and cymbal mount, which maximizes the resonance of your rack tom while providing plenty of flexibility for positioning a crash or ride cymbal. A serious performer, the Sonor AQX Jazz is one of the finest-sounding — not to mention, best-looking — kits at its price point.
100% poplar shells for pure jazz tone
Poplar has been a popular choice of drum manufacturers for decades for making economical, great-sounding instruments, and the Sonor AQX’s all-poplar shells are oozing with old school charm. Tonally similar to birch, poplar boasts a medium attack, with a pleasantly bright top end and a satisfying thump, which is ideal for a range of jazz tunings.
Die-cast lugs and SmartMount system
The Sonor AQX Jazz is outfitted with the same die-cast lugs found on other Sonor AQX series kits. These attractive lugs ensure tight, accurate tuning, as well as durability that will withstand the most rigorous of gigging schedules. Additionally, the Sonor AQX Jazz comes equipped with the lug-contacting SmartMount tom and cymbal mounting system. This unique design prevents direct shell contact to maximize resonance and sustain.
