Few punk bands have had as much an influence on music as Green Day, and Tré Cool has been at the forefront of this movement. Having drummed for every album and subsequent tour since their breakout album ‘Kerplunk’ in 1992, Tré has seen his style in recordings and performances achieve multi-platinum sales, Grammy Awards and countless respect from his peers. The signature drum has a custom designed SJC badge for a more authentic look, whilst the Cookies and Cream wrap is a striking addition to any kit. His love for energetic performances and precise patterns has influenced a generation of young musicians. Tré describes in his own words how important SJC is to his setup: "I've played on literally every brand of US drums out there, and I've finally found my home. I've been looking for drums like these my whole life. True American hot rod custom kits. From the look and sound to the service and attention, it's good to now be part of the SJC family."
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 brothers' 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.
