Puresound

collapse expand iconDescription

The Puresound Super 30 Series Snare Wire 14" delivers penetrating snare presence for discerning drummers. With 30 strands of medium-gauge steel wire, this premium snare wire creates an unmistakably crisp tone with enhanced sensitivity and responsiveness. Compared to traditional snares, the Super 30 Series aids in achieving a snappier, more articulate snare response ideal for intricate ghost notes and buzz rolls. This professional-quality snare wire is precision engineered in the U.S to meet the needs of the most demanding studio and live performances.

Wider Format, Fuller Sound

While most wide-format snare wires can choke tone and feel, the Super 30 Series utilizes Puresound's handcrafted construction to provide a distinctive and balanced sound. With its 30 strands, this premium snare wire creates a penetrating yet natural tone with a full, resonant quality. Despite the wider format, the Super 30 Series fits snare beds from 3" to 3.5" for compatibility with most snare drums.

Copper End Clips for Consistent Tension

Puresound's exclusive copper end clips ensure even tensioning across all snare strands, enabling a consistent and reliable snare response. The copper material also prevents corrosion, allowing your Super 30 Series snare wire to maintain peak performance and sound quality over years of use.

Premium Materials and U. . . Construction

Like all Puresound products, the Super 30 Series is designed and manufactured in the U.S to the highest industry standards. Constructed from durable medium-gauge steel, this premium snare wire is built to handle the demands of studio sessions and touring. For discerning drummers seeking enhanced articulation and sensitivity, the Super 30 Series delivers a crisp tone and professional-grade performance.

Exactly what I wanted.

I purchased these for my vintage 14"x6.5" Yamaha Recording Series steel snare (already a wonderful sounding drum), and I'm very happy with the sound I'm getting. These wires are loud and crisp, and they really fattened the overall sound of the drum. They definitely added more audible "snare wire sound", but the tone of the drum also seems a bit more deep and full than before, as if the wires are somehow doing the opposite of choking it. They still have GREAT snappy response for ghost notes, but they really get loud and fat sounding when I hit the drum hard. They do rattle quietly when I play the toms, but not excessively, and it's not an ugly buzz. I keep the wires as loose as they can get before they start losing their nice responsiveness for lighter strokes. For tuning, I get my snare side head fairly tight, then I bring up the batter head until I'm getting a pitch that I like (usually a low to medium tuning). I'm currently using Remo Weatherking Ambassador batter and snare side heads with a little bit of dampening. I'm not sure that I could be much happier with this product - I'm finally getting the type of fat, punchy snare sound I've been looking for lately without having to tune so low that it makes the drum sound dead tonally. The package includes thin blue cable for attaching the wires to the drum (which I opted to use), but straps would also work if you already had some on hand. I will be purchasing these Puresound 30 Series wires for all my "Rock" snares in the foreseeable future.

    Wow! I've usually stuck to the standard 16 or 18 strand snare wires, but I decided to try the 30 strand. Certainly more snare presence. It's a definitely a good alternative to dryer snare sound. I've only used PureSound, and always been happy.

  • A must have for the best snare sound

    I always make sure my primary snares are fitted with these. They really let the snare sing and project.

    Great snare wires will improve your snare. However do not use the straps with the quick release pins. They will loosen will allow snare wires to slip trough during playing. Easy fix though.
