Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
This model belongs to PureSound's Custom line, designed to allow fine tuning of the "snare vs. shell" balance according to the number of strands. The series offers four strand configurations to adjust the character of the snare: more strands for a stronger snare influence, fewer strands for a more prominent overall shell sound.
Who This Drum/Snare Wire Is For
Ideal for drummers from beginners to advanced seeking a versatile and easy-to-control snare wire. The 20 strands are particularly suited for pop, rock, funk, variety contexts and studio use, when a balanced output is desired without excessive "buzz," while maintaining good sensitivity.
