Designed for 13" snare drums, the PureSound Custom Pro series snare wire features 20-strands of medium-gauge wire, allowing for the snare wire to be dominant in the overall sound. The Custom Pro series of snare wires are the ultimate in ease-of-use. They are designed with Anti-choke end plates that significantly reduce annoying snare buzz and also allow the player to crank up their snare tension for a tight response without choking the drum. The Speed Release™ straps allow the player to disengage the snare wires without releasing the straps from the strainer or butt clamps, enabling quick and easy head or wire changes. The steel coil models produce a quick and crisp snare response. PureSound offers a wide variety of professional quality snare wires including a selection of vintage wires designed specifically for older snare drums with unique snare mechanisms. PureSound snare wires are designed, engineered and manufactured in the USA to the most stringent quality controls in the industry.
