Puresound's Twisted snare wires are designed to produce unprecedented clarity, crispness, and sensitivity. Twenty double strands of Puresound's premium-grade steel-alloy wire are braided together, resulting in increased levels of dryness, articulation, and response. This gives snare drums a contemporary "tight" snare sound without requiring tight snare tension, while providing a significantly higher degree of sensitivity from the drum at any tension. This combination of benefits makes the snares appropriate for drumset, concert, and marching applications.
