Instant better snare
I finally bought this as my original snare wires did not "come through" enough. I confirm - this thing will give a cheap snare maximum amount of "boost" soundwise. Remember to change your drumheads, it's a must! New quality heads+this thing = much, much better sound. The price - if this thing was made out of gold for example, would it really matter soundwise? There are some snare wires that are much more expensive, but in reality I doubt it would make such and audible difference as the price suggests.
Negative: you might notice that the snare rattles now way more on the background, when others play their instruments. But that's what you wanted, right:)

Amazing!
Gibraltar have really nailed it on the head this time. If you're looking to completely transform the sound of your snare, then purchase this item! I was blown away by how much snap and volume these snare wires added to my mid range snare. I will be telling every drummer I know about these wires. Thanks Thomann!

eg
almost perfect
a very sensitive and soft sound wires
gives the snare a smooth attack and a great
range to respond to any tuning and playing
I use them to a wood 14 x 7 and 14 x 5 snares and the result is
fantastic

Just what I needed
I was a little scared when I bought this. I mean, so much strands! But its just what I wanted. It makes your snare drum very sensitive, and fattens the sound.

Ultra Snare Sound!
I was looking for a snare wire that would give me a very crisp sound. My goal was to have a marching snare sound on my 14 inch millennium piccollo snare. I have an Evans hydraulic black head on top with the stock reso head on the bottom. I think this snare wire will sound even better once I upgrade the rest head. The 42 snare wires really give a nice crisp sound. Can't say enough good about it.

Interesting
I was searching for more snare and Gibraltar had it. But not recommended for hi tension at snares if you drop them down (to play rims for example). They “show up” from nowhere easy.

Gibraltar SC-4471 Snare Wires
I bought the Gibraltar SC-4471 Snare Wires because i wanted to have a broad snare-wire system to get a lot of wire sound on my drum. It was a little bit damaged when I got it. I don't know if it had been handled badly during shipping or if it is poor quality but I don't think the small damages on the wires affects the sound

Great product
Really well made, and sounds great. Adds a great dynamic to ghost notes I find. Also I notice it kind of acts as a damper, in that it takes a little extra ring away from the snare itself.
