This is an ideal cord for a sustaining, natural bound and stabilizing snare wire. The only drawback used to be a sudden break of the string while in use. Canopus has conducted research into core fiber material, thread volume and weaving technique to come up with a very durable snare cord with natural bound (compared with our products in the past). The fitting of these snare wires have vastly improved whether loosely or tightly adjusted. This is a most suitable item for situations where delicacy is required (in a recording for instance).
