Grover Replacement Snares

Comments:

I got the orchestral snares to use while playing a musical. They are so responsive and sounded horrible in my living room, the smallest note on any drum would cause the snares to vibrate. I went into the hall to play the show and they sound amazing. Every note speaks evenly at all different dynamics.

Thought I would try some cable snares on my drum set snare. They sound fine. Slightly more articulate than traditional spiral wire snare. However, I must confess that even though I liked the sound - I went back to the PureSound Custom snares I have used for years. Give them a try. They could very well provide the sound you are looking for.

These are excellent snare if you are going for a "concert" snare sound. I have used several other brands and these seem to have the best dynamic range. They produce a full sound at loud dynamic levels and yet are very responsive at very soft dynamic levels. They produce clean and clear articulation yet are forgiving enough to smooth out rolls. I have these snares on all my concert snare drums. Highly recommended.

With these wires, I've found my snare drum sound. They are much darker and drier and the common curly-wired "snappy snares." Other snare wires no just sound harsh to me. There is virtually no-after buzz and much less sympathetic buzz with other drums (but not zero). You want to be aware of a few things if you go the Grover route: 1) Your playing has to be clean. Just as guitar player can hide slop behind distortion, a drummer can hide sloppy snare drum work behind bright, buzzy wires. With the Grovers there is nowhere to hide. 2) Do you love the sound of your snare drum with the wires off? You snare drum will sound the same, but with the introduction of dark dry snare sound. "Snappy snares" cover up a lot of the sound of the drum. Grovers let them shine through. If you don't like the sound of your snare drum with the wires off, Grovers are not what you want. If you love the sound of your drum, Grovers will let the sound shine through.

If you want a good snare set to transform any snare into a great sounding concert snare, look no further! I have tried all of the major brand cable snare replacements, and the Grover's are by far the best option at a reasonable cost. They work best over a diplomat weight snare side head. They are very responsive, sensitive, and play well over a large dynamic range. These are just perfect, andd no muss, no fuss!
