Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 14 x 6.5-inch DW Performance Series brass snare uses a 1 mm polished shell for focused attack, projection, and a more controlled overtone profile than traditional brass snares. It is responsive from light ghost-note work through hard rimshots. Three snare-tension settings are available via the MAG throw-off and 3P butt plate, allowing the wire response to be adjusted without reworking the whole drum. TruePitch rods maintain even tension, and triple-flanged hoops reinforce rimshot playing while supporting resonance.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage work that moves from subtle ghost notes to rimshots and strong backbeats.
- Players who need three selectable snare-wire responses within the same drum setup.
