    First snare wires I've needed to replace in years. I went the cheap route first and my snare sounded horrible. No articulation and just a horrible tone. I went back to spend the extra money on these and immediately better. I think I actually have a better sound now the I did out the gate.

    These snares are terrific. They are articulate and dry on our snare drum (Gretsch Renown Gen 1).
