The Groove Ring gives you an industrial, metallic sound on your snare drum! Great for accents! Play it with rim-shots or on its own. Made from our Hex Metal, the Groove Ring is hand-hammered and heat-treated to bring a specific tone out of the metal. It's formed into a domed shape with the outer edge slightly flattened to allow it to sit properly on your drumhead and the inner edge raised approximately 1/4". This gives you the versatility to flip it over and get a different effect. Just rest it on top of your drumhead and you’re ready to go! Features and uses of the Groove Ring: Get a loud tone without the need for a hard hit. Use it as an accent sound which is similar to a pipe or anvil. Use in conjunction with a rim-shot. Add a Creative Percussion Groove Chain-ger for even more metallic sound. Enhance the industrial sound by disengaging the snare wires. Add one or two of our MFX Jingles for more dimension in sound.
