To ensure their snare drums are crisp and responsive, Yamaha make their snare wires from high-carbon steel, which is a very strong and rigid material.

Yamaha use a unique design for the plate which holds the snare wires. The plate has a slight bend in it which helps the wires to adhere better to the snare head, when under tension. This allows the snare wires to responds accurately and cleanly to sensitive playing.

This snare wire has a moderate volume range and decay, and suits any type of music. It’s capable of producing a wide range of sounds.

The package includes two (2) pieces of snare tape for installation.
