www.drumgear.dk
Since launching SnareWorks in 2007, Drum Gear has proven that it’s possible to manufacture superb sounding snares, with thoroughly tested hardware and classic design – at an affordable price everyone can enjoy. Drum Gear now launch its successor: SnareWorks mkII.
Superior versatility With a SnareWorks snare drum, you will have a snare that will suit any occasion. One of SnareWorks foremost qualities, is great versatility. These drums can be tuned to any register, and will perform amazingly wherever you play it.
The snare drum is the heart of every drummer’s setup, and that’s why it’s so important to find the exact snare drum that will give you what you need. If your setup has an inadequate snare drum, your setup simply won’t work. If, on the other hand, you have a snare drum that keeps you wanting to play more, then you have a snare drum that will be conducive to your playing. It is that experience we want you to have, when playing our Drum Gear SnareWorks-snares.
Versions The SnareWorks “matrix” of snare drums gives you three different versions. One is a chrome plated steel shell, the second is a black nickel plated brass shell, and the third is a brushed, black nickel plated bronze shell. Regardless of which you choose you’ll receive the same outstanding quality – the only difference being the shell. Everything else is standard. 1 mm thin shells, 45° bearing edges, 10 classic tube-lugs (8 on the 13” version), 2.3 mm Super Hoops (Triple Flange) as standard (3 other types available), our new S2-PRO “non-loosening” throw-off system, quality Mylar® heads, as well as our carbon steel snares with 20 wires.
History Drum Gear is a Danish company that arose after a long period of curiosity, searching and experimenting with snare drums. The experiments went well, so well in fact, that the first SnareWorks snare was launched in 2007.

Latest Additions In early 2011 Drum Gear expanded their line of snaredrums by shipping out three brand new models - none of which was designet to be a part of the excisting “SnareWorks grid”. These new drums are meant as an addition to the excisting line, trying to give even more possibilities to the drummer looking for his or her personal sound. Experience Drum Gear Reading all the technical bits in small print is a good idea. But words and pictures are one thing, and to really experience these drums is something entirely different. That’s why we suggest that you visit your nearest Drum Gear retailer and try these amazing snares out for yourself.

I have become very pleasently surprised with the new bronze models from Drum Gear. There are plenty of attack and it still got that warmth - almost like a wood snare. It’s my primary snaredrum now…

First time I played a Drum Gear SnareWorks snare, I was completely sold! No matter how I tune it, there’s always a perfect fitting sound there.
