Grover Snares - 14" Jazz Bright: each

Grover Snares - 14" Jazz Bright: each

Since 1980 Grover Pro has been hand crafting snares that fit any standard snare drum and which provide drummers with an increase in snare projection, sensitivity, and “fatness” of sound. Unlike ordinary, cheap “snappy”snares (which only contact the bottom head at the apex of the wire), their snare wires make continuous contact across the bottom head over the entire length of the wire. This means that their snares have a contact area many times greater than any other wire snares! Increased contact with the bottom head translates to maximized attack and projection across a fuller spectrum of sonorities.
Jazz Bright snares use light gauge wires that have a bright tone colour with a quick attack and a sensitive feel. They are designed for drums with a depth of 5" or less.

It is important to note that Grover snares require a well-defined snare bed (most drums have this), and that they require less tension than ordinary wire snares. You will know if you are over-tensioning the snares when they start to sound choked and less resonant. If you do over-tension, just slightly back off the fine-tuning knob on the snare strainer and the issue will correct itself. Use your ears—you will hear when the snares are correctly tensioned.

"At Grover Pro we believe that the snare wires are the most critical part of any snare drum. It stands to reason that it is the interaction between the wires and the bottom head that accounts for the majority of a snare drum’s sound. That’s why we personally handcraft each snare unit in our factory outside of Boston."
