Designed for 13″ snare drums, the PureSound Equalizer series snare wire features 16 strands of medium-gauge wire The Equalizer line has been created to modify the spread and activity of the snare sound by working in conjunction with the snare drum’s natural acoustics and snare bed design. Equalizers feature an off-set design that removes the strands from the middle of the drum; in effect decreasing the vibration of the wires. Not only is the result a drier and crisper sound, but the wires will be less influenced by sympathetic vibrations from other drums and instruments.Designed for 13″ snare drums; 16 strands of wireOff-set snare wire design with removed center snares for increase shell soundEqualizer series wires are less influenced by sympathetic vibrations from other drums and instrumentsSteel coil produces a quick and crisp snare responseAll PureSound Snare Wires are designed and manufactured in the USAManufacturer:Evans DrumheadsModel:E1316SKU:I349268-N-0-WHXEUPC: 046716576347We are Chuck Levin’s Washington Music CenterSince 1958, Chuck Levins Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
