Grover Replacement Snares

Comments:

Used as an update on a 14x4" brass drum, which was a little too bright with standard ProSound snares. Used the SX Orchestral Silver/Bronze, and it sounds much more like a concert drum. Still bites well at loud volumes, but much more sensitive at softer volumes. It does take some tension adjustment, as you no longer need things to be super tight, but once it's dialed in you have a very dry, dynamic sound.

I recently received a Gretsch Gergo Borlai signature snare drum, which I love in every way except that it arrived with those unnecessarily wide 42-strand snares for which Gretsch is famous. Usually those snares work fine (even if they muffle as much sound as they inspire), but in this case they buzzed unevenly. I replaced those snares with the 20-strand snares from another recent Gretsch drum and installed 15-strand Grover snares on that drum. They went on quickly and easily, centered and sounding great, on the first try. The supplied Dacron attachment cords work better than the stiff, heavy-duty strapping, but in either case the Grover snares are a major improvement over typical factory models. Thanks again!

I love Grover snare wires. They can really improve the sound of a drum.

I love Grover snare wires, very sensitive and you don't need to over tighten them ,( which will choke the snare side head) to get a solid, fat sound out of them.

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.
