Canopus Back Beat 14" Snare Drum Wires

We know what you're thinking... £30 for a set of wires!? These look just like any other set of 14" 20 strand snare drum wires but the magic comes from the weight ratio of wires to plate and the wires being made of the highest grade metals, tailored to certain shell materials. Dry model = wood shell, chrome plated model = metal shell. These things are the real deal as they're made in Japan and do exactly what they say on the tin. One of the main reasons we were interested in them is they perform very well on vintage gear. Trust us, these wires are worth the cash.

Here's what they say:

"Delivers a Solid Back Beat With Bold Attack. Great Projection for The Perfect Mix.

Snare wires which enhance even the subtitles of nuances in the midst of very loud back beats! By adopting spiral wires with an abundance of coils coupled with 1 mm end-plates, we have achieved a good balance between volume that is aggressive enough for a powerful back beat and swift response for delicate phrasing. With this one snare wire, you can have an aggressive, loud snare sound and maintain sensitivity.

CPSS-BB14DR (Dry=Without plating) These snare wires create a loud attack and sharp response even for ghost notes. Very effective for wood-shell snare drums.

CPSS-BB14NP (Chrome plated) These snare wires have both a loud attack and bright sound. They have an enormous effect on metal-shell snare drums. They will improve the potential of a loud snare tremendously."
