Canopus20 Strand Vintage Snare Wire with Chrome Plating 10 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for a 10-inch snare, this 20-strand Canopus wire draws on 1960s-style snare-wire material specifications. Its 0.5 mm end plate is intended to give the snare response a brisk, deep character for more delicate acoustic ensemble work. Chrome plating reins in high overtones, moving the result toward a richer, milder presentation rather than an overtly bright one.
Strong match
Who this is for
