Historical Context and Positioning in the Range

Fat Cat has built a solid reputation among drummers for its snare wires focused on innovation and reliability. The "Pitch" model fits this approach by offering a "compatibility"-oriented design: it aims to optimize the snare wire's seating on snares where the snare bed is shallow or barely defined, ensuring a clean and controlled response even when the seating is not ideal.

Who This Snare Wire Is For

This snare wire is intended for beginner to advanced drummers seeking a cleaner response and fewer unwanted noises without spending hours dialing in the perfect setup. It is especially suitable for contexts where the snare must remain clear and controlled: pop, rock, funk, gospel, studio, and live. If you're looking for a snare with a sharp attack and a present but disciplined wire sound, this model is a very relevant choice.

Questions frequently asked

Is the Fat Cat FC1420P suitable for a snare drum without a carved snare bed?

The angled outer plates of the "Pitch" model are designed to improve the seating on snare drums with little or no carved snare bed. This optimized contact with the resonant head helps to reduce unwanted buzzing.

What sound does a 20-strand carbon snare wire produce?

Its 20 strands made up of 90% carbon provide a sharp attack and a stable response. The definition of ghost notes and the snap gain in clarity.

Is this 14-inch snare wire suitable for studio and live use?

With controlled response at low to medium volume, this model is suitable for both studio and live settings. It is also recommended for pop, rock, funk, and gospel.

Does the Pitch design reduce snare buzz?

The specific angle of the outer plates improves the contact between the snares and the resonant head. This design aims to reduce unwanted vibrations, especially when the tension is kept moderate. The response thus remains clearer on light strokes.
