True-Sonic Snare Puts a Modern Twist on a Vintage Favourite

Drum Workshop, Inc. has recently announced the release of a snare drum that pays tribute to an American classic, but also includes today’s latest innovations and build-quality. The aptly named True-Sonic features a pre-tensioned, highly-adjustable Snare Bridge™ that provides orchestral- like sensitivity and articulation. DW Founder, Don Lombardi, expounds, “So many drummers had the original design, I happen to be one of them. Today, drummers prize these snares because they have a very distinct voice. We thought we could bring this drum back, but make several key improvements. The pre-tensioned wires worked, but were never easy to adjust and wouldn’t throw-off completely. The shells were also very inconsistent. After playing it for a while and showing it to some of our artists, I feel that we’ve added another interesting texture to our DW snares. That’s what it’s all about, giving drummers more to work with and more sounds to spark their creativity.”
