Rich Impact
These new_Canopus_42 strand snare wires give a unique rich and full sound, and provide great impact.Having 42 strands may initially give an impression of being “too much”, _but the VSW-42 wires feature ultra thin end plates – allowing players to enjoy maximum tone and response at all volume levels, whilst also providing great sensitivity and control over the sound. Players can enjoy a comfortably muted, tight sound and very quick response.

I want to give you some feedback on my 5 years of experience performing with Canopus Vintage Snares.
I play the Canopus Neo-Vintage Jazz drum set, with a 6.5” x 14” snare drum equipped with Vintage Snares.
As a jazz drummer, I frequently play with brushes as well as sticks. I can easily adjust the snare tension to achieve the snare sound I’m looking for and simultaneously get a nice full brush sound from the snares.
Canopus Vintage Snares provide the full, rich, warm sound I want. They are never sharp or too bright, yet they provide a sound the band and audience can easily hear in performance even with brushes.
No matter the genre of music you play, check out Canopus Vintage Snares, they just may surprise you. When you do, let us know what you think!

The drummer who controls their snare sound will have a much better chance of controlling their entire drum kit. The snare drum is most vocal part of the kit, speakers the quickest and loudest.
Canopus Vintage Snare Wires opened my ears to this revelation. For the first time I heard warmth and depth in the tone of my snare sound. Warmth from the brass; depth from the coil of the snares. I was able to get a deeper tone from the snare as well as a more pleasing, relaxing warmth.
They work well on wood or metal shell drums. I use them on every drum I own.
In any drum restoration, Canopus Vintage Snare Wires can upgrade the sound of any snare drum as well as their wonderful “Bolt Tight” washers. Thank you to all at the Canopus family for your thoughtful and brilliant craftsmanship!

For studio and live I’m constantly requiring the widest dynamic range possible out of my snare drums. The Canopus vintage snare wires gives me that sensitivity for all the subtlety and for when I want to pull the volume out of the drum the punctuation is articulately present....highly recommended!
