Graduated Tension Wires

Ultra-Sound Snare Wires

The way the snares respond to the stroke and vibration of the shell has dramatic sonic implications in your overall tone. Only Pearl Ultra-Sound Snare Wires feature the Graduated Tension Mounting method; three profiles that focus the tension of the wires by section to give vibration emphasis for different snare types and sizes.

"C"-Type

Features increased tension in the outer wires with a slight "give" in the center wire section. Delivers outstanding tracking and response for louder musical stylings and metal-shell snare drums.
