localinsomniac Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 12 minutes ago, SnaggletoothRecords said: The endorsement for live performances are different than what's actually used in the studio You can't get a 70's Ludwig snare sound out of an SJC and 70's Ludwig snares are the most recorded snare drums in history and continue to be recorded on records today as well. To piggyback on this, do we know the terms of his deal with SJC? Or any of his prior endorsement deals, for that matter. He may not be contractually obligated to use them in studio, but rather just promoting the brand while on tour. Edit: I'm almost certain he's only required to play SJC live. From the artist's standpoint, it just wouldn't make sense otherwise. You get the sounds you're looking for in a studio application, regardless of the sponsors with whom you're aligned.

The whole point of the endorsement is having fans SEE what you're playing. Not to mention Green Day's members are notorious for having a huge collection of instruments. Why would you hoard all of that stuff and not use it on your records? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dallasthemenace Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 yeah, for his live appearances, he's supposed to be seen (currently) with zildjian, remo, dw hardware (except for that one-off deal with gibralter in the last few years, though he still used dw on his live kit), and SJC... zildjian was making a few signature products of his for a while (stick and cymbal bags), and they still make his artist series stick, ive got my fingers crossed that they give him a signature crash at some point. in the studio, he uses any and everything/every brand. its all about the right sounds for the records.

What if they film the recording sessions for a DVD/BluRay documentary like ¡Cuatro! Then I think Tré would probably have to use the SJC kit. Now I have a theory, maybe that’s what the @SongsForAssholes IG is all about. Maybe not the name of the actual album, but the documentary, “Songs for Assholes: The Making of (Insert Album Name)” And the album special edition will feature a hardcover book with the CD, DVD and/or BluRay, and pages of lyrics and photos from the @SongsForAssholes IG, HOLY SHIT IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!!!!!

Maybe it did belong to Billie at some point, but I'm guessing the BG account posted the picture because they have a '59 Telecaster for sale.

This is beyond speculation into the realm of the ridiculous. This is on the level of: “Billie took a selfie with a Tiki mug, it must mean the next album will be a tribute to Don Ho!!!” More like trolling than reasonable speculation.
