Key Features
Product Ref: 133179
The proprietary M5 shell is built from dense North American maple. This solid grain offers the powerful tone that excels in today's modern music. With dense, thick plies these shells burst with warm vintage character. The overtones are well-controlled, leaving you with a punchy and focused attack. They cut with crisp precision. You'll have no trouble with modern pop and indie styles, the Josh Dun Trench Camo snare inspires passionate playing.
The M5 shells are the result of years of rigorous testing by the SJC team. They provide enhanced resonance, ease of tuning, and an increased tonal range. Hand-honed bearing edges are cut to perfection to ensure exceptional attack qualities from the drum.
Enjoy full resonance from the shell. The SJC Josh Dun Trench Camo snare comes complete with low-mass hoops and hardware. Triple-flanged hoops ensure those classic maple qualities can be heard. Proprietary SJC Shield lugs provide tuning stability and studio-quiet performance.
Josh started drumming from a young age after being inspired by bands such as Green Day. As he progressed through his drumming career, Dun even worked for the former Twenty One Pilots drummer, Chris Salih. In 2011 he was invited to a Twenty One Pilots show by Salih, and from there he met the other members of the band and began to form a friendship with the lead singer. Since then, Dun officially became the band's full-time drummer and has remained in that position to date. Widely recognised across the world, Twenty One Pilots have produced a number of popular albums, based around alternative hip-hop, electropop, and indie pop genres.
With humble beginnings in Mike and Scott Ciprari's (SJC) Grandmother's basement, SJC has since developed into one of the world's leading drum manufacturers and suppliers. In the beginning, the brothers were determined to pioneer the sound of a generation tirelessly seeking to improve themselves and their drum kits until they had reached a state of perfection. As the brother's skills progressed and they got better at building, they thought it a good idea to get some of their friends to play their kits and start to spread the word. Bands such as 'A Wilhelm Scream' and 'Strike Anywhere' were some of the few endorsements from the brothers. SJC's turning point came when the musical sensation 'Panic! At the Disco' played the MTV music awards in 2006. This pivotal moment enabled the brand to branch out and endorse a variety of bigger and more diverse bands like 'Hawthorne Heights', 'Aiden' and 'Cobra Starship'. Expanding their already impressive artist roster, SJC began to reach unprecedented heights and managed to move out of their grandmother's basement and into a warehouse, enabling SJC to introduce a small number of new dedicated staff.
Embracing the game of innovation, SJC has consistently created drums that produce high-quality tone and a distinct character, often to the exact specification of high profile artists. In the last two years SJC has signed drummers Branden Steineckert (Rancid), Cyrus Bolooki (New Found Glory), Zach Lind (Jimmy Eat World) and Tre Cool (Green Day). With all these world-renowned artists previously being endorsed by huge international companies, it speaks volumes of SJC for their desire to switch to a custom company.
Always on the cutting edge of innovation, SJC has always focused on making the drummer the focal point of any performance.
With a virtually endless list of custom options, SJC prioritises the drummer's specific requirements whilst never compromising their classic and unique sound. With an ever expanding list of big names upon their roster, SJC has been a consistent choice for many renowned drummers the world over, emphasising their commitment to quality and sound.
