A snare wire includes a snare and a pair of attachment tools fixed to opposite end sections of the snare. Each of the attachment tools includes a bonding portion with which the snare is bonded, a catching portion that catches a strap or a cord, and a pressing portion that contacts the strap or the cord caught by the catching portion and is pressed in a direction separating from a drum head. The catching portion is arranged at a position between the center of the drum head and the pressing portion and below the bonding portion.
