Full Description

The SJC Club Series Snare

The Club Series Snare is an affordable and versatile addition to any drum kit. The innovative combination of nickel over steel lends the snare a bright and resonant tone that adds a crisp and punchy balance to any mix. The Club Series Snare is a dynamic snare that is adept at playing a multitude of different genres. From metal to jazz, the Club Snare brings unparalleled definition and tone to the player.

Hardware

The snare features a vintage throw that uses a simple and lateral style throw-off that makes practicality and easy operation priority. 2.3 mm triple flanged steel hoops encourage open and long sustain, helping to create that classic snare sound. In addition to this, the standard SJC snare wires provide a great mix of shell tone and snare wire snap, further assisting the definition of the snare's dynamic sound. Snare beds in the bottom bearing edge of the shell on either end of the snare wires allow them to sit flat when tightened to prevent buzz and make it easy to keep your resonant snare head in tune. The tube lugs used on the Club Series Snare are durable and offer great stability and adjustability.

Manufacture

The distinctive SJC badge located on the shell proudly mark the snare as a product of high-quality manufacturing and craftsmanship. Built in Massachusetts by the very same craftspeople who create the innovative custom kits, the SJC Club Series Snare keeps the working musician and student in mind, maintaining a grounded affordability that enables drummers to play high-quality instruments at an incredible price.

About SJC Drums

With humble beginnings in Mike and Scott Ciprari's (SJC) Grandmother's basement at the ages of 13 and 14, the brothers have since developed into one of the world's leading drum manufacturers and suppliers. Always on the cutting edge of innovation, SJC has always focused on making the drummer the focal point of any performance.

As they got better at building, the brothers 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 have consistently created drums that produce high-quality tones 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.

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.
