NAMM 2014: Sonor had plenty to show at this year's NAMM, one-off drums, tiny kits and gorgeous finishes included!

And how about this for a finish? This is the Sonor Nebula. This limited edition SQ2 kit features a beautiful (if somewhat trippy) custom finish. The finish is actually a human render of a digital image sent from the Hubble telescope!
