Key Features for Ultimate Snare Drum Articulation and Fullness

The S1430 snare wire is engineered with specific attributes to deliver a truly impactful and responsive snare drum sound:

• 30 Strands of Medium-Gauge Steel Wire: This high strand count is the defining feature of the Super 30 series. It dramatically increases the number of contact points with the snare-side head, resulting in an exceptionally full, fat, and sensitive snare sound. The medium-gauge wire provides a crisp and immediate response.

• Evenly Spaced Coiled Wires: The wires are precisely spaced and coiled to ensure consistent tension across the snare-side head. This meticulous design promotes an incredibly even and articulate snare response, allowing for maximum clarity on every stroke, from the softest ghost notes to the loudest rimshots.

• Enhanced Sensitivity and Articulation: With 30 strands, this snare wire picks up even the most subtle vibrations from the batter head, translating into unparalleled sensitivity. It makes the snare drum "speak" with incredible clarity and nuance.

• Fat, Full-Bodied Snare Sound: The sheer number of strands contributes to a much thicker and more substantial snare buzz or "thwack." This results in a fatter overall snare sound that can add significant weight and character to your drum, especially effective for genres that benefit from a powerful backbeat.

• Copper End Plates: PureSound snare wires feature copper end plates, which are not only durable but also contribute to the overall tonal characteristics by providing a solid and consistent connection to the snare strainer and butt plate.

• Durable Construction: PureSound wires are renowned for their high quality and durability, ensuring a long lifespan even under the demands of professional playing.

• Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward installation on most 14-inch snare drums, they typically come with strap guides to help align the snares perfectly for optimal sound.

• Made in USA: All PureSound snare wires are designed and manufactured in the USA, adhering to high standards of quality control and precision.

The PureSound S1430 14" Super 30 Series Snare Wire is a top-tier choice for drummers who want to maximize the snare response and achieve a remarkably fat, sensitive, and articulate sound from their 14-inch snare drum. It's an excellent upgrade for drummers playing genres where extreme clarity, fullness, and responsiveness are paramount.
