Black Swamp Replacement Snares - Product Information

Give your snare drum added projection, response, and tonal depth with Black Swamp cable snares. They utilize coated and uncoated stainless steel cables in two different styles.

Black Swamp cable snares are custom-made and utilize a slim line design that slips easily through even the smallest snare gates, eliminating the need for bulky clamps. Black Swamp cable is silver-soldered directly onto the steel end plate. After many years of manufacturing thousands of these snares, Black Swamp has never had a single snare returned to us for failure at the solder joint!

Wrap-around cables span the diameter of the drum and wrap around the bearing edge. This style produces the most sound and requires a snare bed.

Standard cables fit on any snare drum (lies totally on snare head). and can be used on drums with very shallow snare beds.

Models with all coated cable produce a drier tone, while combination models add the bright snap of uncoated cable. All stainless units are the brightest (but not as bright as snappy snares). Includes snare cord and instructions.

  • All Black Swamp Percussion Replacement Snares come in a 14" length

blue snares

Comments:

Using these snares gave me the exact sound that I was looking for on my old Ludwig 14" x 12" 6-lug single-tension field snare. It is now deep, throaty and crisp in an old-fashioned way; perfect for playing my Pratt etudes. Black Swamp blue-coated wires produced the real gut sound I was dreaming about! Highly recommended...

Very clean, sensitive and responsive snare

Comments:

I have several of these Black Swamp cable snares both wrap around and standard style. I'm convinced the wrap around style gets the cleanest and most most responsive snare sound possible. It's far superior to any snappy wire snare I've ever used. And I've tried almost every high quality snare wire. I have the coated blue cable and the stainless steel wraparound models and coated blue cable and blue/stainless combo standard style models. Obviously these are pricier than snappy wire snares but they're still a lot less expensive than buying more snare drums to try to find a certain sound. (I'm guilty of that too!). Treat yourself to the stainless for stainless for more sensitive playing or blue coated for more powerful playing.

Snare strand

Comments:

Very pricey compared to any other snares on the market, but with its narrow strands, it sure makes a snare drum pop. Not much snare sound (very narrow and thin strands), but that drum pops.
