3.5oz V1

3.5oz  V1 018-Veg1
Drum Accessories
Price : 41 USD

Note: We love the V1 at the shop but note it is made to shorten the sustain but keep the good ring. It won't dampen all the ring from your snare but tighten it up and give it more punch keeping the shell open around the rim of the drum.

It dampens about as much as the M1 and not as much as our M80.

Rrrrrocking good to all !! After a couple years of testing, Snareweight is stoked to have wrapped up our Vegan Leather model, the V1. It is weighted with a 3.5 ounce body, a magnet, felt, and strong vegan leather.

We here at the shop think it dampens in a new way, kind of in between and M1 and our Brass #5 model and are loving the fact we took our M1 footprint and added the right amount of weight to get a dampened, full of tone, drum sound.

Also the chrome color matches most hardware and seems to belong, out of the way, and right along the rim of the hoop.

We were asked a couple questions about it- see below

Does the 3.5oz get an amount of dampening somewhere between M1b and M80? Or does it get more than the M80?
It's about the same as the M1 but does sound different. Because of the weight, it adds a bit of crisp clarity and compression like our brass #5 model. An M80 fully open definitely has the most ring dampening.


*Remember the V1 will work with any size drum;(8",9,10,12,13,14,16,18, etc.) Dampen in a snap or disengage even faster with the on/off feature. Works with triple flange hoops, die cast, angel hoops, true hoops, 1/4" wood.
