TRE COOL SIGNATURE SPITFIRE DRUMS, SALES ARE ROCKIN' HARD

---------------------------------------------------------
by Reno Kling


Slingerland Drum Company's exclusive Tre Cool Signature Series Spitfire drum kit is now shipping and selling strong both in the U.S. and abroad, Slingerland officials report. Slingerland is the first, front-line drum manufacturer to have a super-star artist endorse an entry-level kit--"a kit that kids can afford," Tre Cool says.
Manufactured to Tre Cool's specifications, the Tre Cool Signature Series Spitfire kit features an 11x14 mounted tom, a 16x16 floor tom, and a 16x22 bass drum, all finished in a unique, custom "Cool" green finish, along with a 6 1/2x14 chrome snare. All kits come complete with Tre Cool Signature drumheads, a custom black Tre Cool Signature logo bass drum head, as well as a heavy-duty, chain-drive bass drum pedal, and doubled-braced snare, cymbal and hi-hat stands. Six-ply shells with heavy-duty tom mounts, bass drum spurs, and floor to legs make the Slingerland Tre Cool Signature Spitfire kit rugged and durable.

"The main thing is that they're inexpensive ($949 suggested retail price)," he said. "I wouldn't have done it at all if a set didn't sell for under $1,000. I'm not gonna tell a kid to go out and play some over-priced stuff. I can't hang with that," he said. "That's my main interest--a drum kit that kids can afford to buy." Tre Cool, drummer extraordinaire for the multiplatinum-selling group Green Day, has become the featured cover story for several top international music publications. In addition, one of Tre's recent cover stories received the highest readership response ever in the history of the leading drum magazine in which it was published.
