PureSound Percussion Custom Pro Snare Wires: A Pro Percussionist's Must-Have
June 16, 2010
PureSound Percussion Custom Pro Snare Wires provide optimal snare drum sound and quick releases of wires and snare heads.

Play snare like a pro with the new Custom Pro Snare Wires by PureSound Percussion. The company will be showing the snare wires at the 2010 Summer NAMM show in Nashville, Tennessee this weekend.

The Custom Pro series of snare wires are said to be the ultimate in ease-of-use, designed with Anti-choke end plates that significantly reduce irritating snare buzz and also allow you to crank up their snare tension for a tight response without choking the drum. What the Anti-choke end plates do is lift the coils away from the edge to reduce sympathetic buzz and further increase the wire tension range.

Also part of the Custom Pro series are the Speed Release straps, which allow you to disengage the snare wires without releasing the straps from the strainer or butt clamps (yes, that's what they're called -- not painful to the instrument), enabling you to change the snare head or wires quickly and easily. So if something goes wrong during a set or performance, you won't waste time fumbling with the wires to get back on track. What's more, the numbered alignment marks on the straps ensure straight and repeatable positioning in the clamp.

In addition to making head or wire changes easier and faster, the new Custom Pro Snare Wires promote a balanced wire pressure, for a more even snare sound.

Take it from the company's senior product manager, Michael Robinson: "The Custom Pro addition to our snare wire line expand[s] the sonic palette available to drummer, allowing him or her to significantly alter the snare drum sound either through wire tension or choice of alloy. Switching from one alloy or strand count to another is unbelievably easy -- thanks to the Speed Release system. Custom Pro Snare Wires are the simplest way to ensure the best possible sound of your snare."

The Custom Pro series is available with either Steel coil for a quick and crisp response, or Brass coil for a bright and resonant response. Both alloys are available in either 20- or 24-strand configurations, in 13-inch and 14-inch lengths.

PureSound Percussion Custom Pro Snare Wires are available now for $34.99. For more information about the Custom Pro series, please visit the company Web site, puresoundpercussion.com.
