Graduated Tension Wires
Ultra-Sound Snare Wires
The way the snares respond to the stroke and vibration of the shell has dramatic sonic implications in your overall tone. Only Pearl Ultra-Sound Snare Wires feature the Graduated Tension Mounting method; three profiles that focus the tension of the wires by section to give vibration emphasis for different snare types and sizes.

- Channel Chord Receivers: Allows the wires to lay flat against the head without resistance.
- Standard Chord Receivers: Delivers a more traditional sound with a touch of restraint.
- Strap Receiver: For use of a preferred strap to mount from the strainer.
