The Original NATO-1 Throw Off
UK Patent #6235771 | EU Patent #009201734-0001 | USA Patent # US D1,004,693 S | China Patent # (Pending)
With design and utility patents granted and pending in 34 countries in the U.S., UK, Europe, and China, our innovative "Not Another Throw Off" (NATO-1™) snare strainer provides an infinite amount of adjust-ability which gives you, the artist an "Adjust & Play" ability that no other throw off can offer, full stop. Our throw off is a major departure from legacy throw off mechanisms that only provide a binary ('on' or 'off') position or a few preset positions.
The NATO-1 enables you, the artist, to get the full range of sound out of your snare. You shouldn't expect anything less than the fact that this disruption to the drumming world is precision machined as well.
Guaranteed for defects in craftsmanship for life.
The NATO-1 XL Throw Off
Enjoyed and trusted by drummers on tour, in the studio, and in the club, the NATO-1 XL is an extended version of the original NATO-1 that retro-fits to over 50 throw off models (and counting) from vintage to modern! With a dozen hole spacings from 3/8" to 1 11/16" to use, and an updated aesthetic to match the curvature of the drum shell, the performance, fit, and finish of the NATO-1 XL is un-matched in the industry.
Grosgrain Snare Straps
Designed for use with strap-mounted snare wires, the Sonique WS-1 snare wire straps are made from 100% polyester grosgrain ribbon. Our snare wire straps will not stretch, shrink, or fade unlike other straps made from nylon. Whether you're playing a gig outdoors in the rain, spill your favorite beer over your snare between sets, or just like to crank up the tension, the 100% polyester WS-1 strap has your back.
Signature Socket Drum Key
Never being afraid improve on an old idea, we've also made our own socket drum key, and we're the first to do it! Our signature socket key works perfectly with either our signature 4-point (square head) tension rods & screws or the EVR GRP™ (socket head) tension rods screws. Never again will your key go flying while changing/tuning heads; usually at the worst possible time! Machined from solid brass, this key performs just as good as it looks. More importantly, this drum key will not slip and provides 12 points of entry instead of just 4 which allows you to get the 12-point key on the tension rod 3x faster, without slip.
