Description: After years of careful analysis of the material composition, thickness of the end plate, shaping experiments and production consideration, we have the Canopus Vintage snare wires! In the 60's, Ludwig and Slingerland manufactured what has now become the standard for good vintage wires. Canopus have replicated the Slingerland wire taking several factors into account such as material, spiral diameter and pitch. They settled on a core thickness of 0.5 mm, a spiral diameter of 1.35mm and a pitch of 3.4 mm. In that process, they also found that the end plate is another determinant of a snare-wire’s sensitivity, and we have tried various sizes for these as well, and concluded that 0.5mm is optimal to hold the wires. It was also determined best to exclude the guiding grooves for snare strings and tapes that most manufacturers use as these impaired the sensitivity of the snare drum.
