Orange County Drum and Percussion is an American custom drum manufacturer based in Orange County, California, founded in 1991 by Daniel Jensen. The company began as a retail drum shop offering lessons, repairs, and custom builds before its custom-shop work — known for bold finishes, acrylic shells, and distinctive aesthetics — became its calling card. OCDP rose to prominence through the 1990s and early 2000s building kits for drummers in the Southern California alt-rock, punk, and nu-metal scenes.
The brand became closely associated with drummers including Travis Barker (blink-182), Adrian Young (No Doubt), and Chad Sexton (311); Young also took a part-ownership stake in the company. OCDP drums were used by players in bands such as No Doubt, blink-182, Limp Bizkit, Foo Fighters, NOFX, Slipknot, Deftones, Rancid, New Found Glory, The Used, and The Offspring, helping cement the brand's reputation in punk, ska, and rock circles.
OCDP was acquired by Guitar Center in 2011 and shifted toward production drum kits sold through Guitar Center and Musician's Friend, alongside continued custom work. The lineup has historically spanned acrylic kits, maple and birch shells, and snare drums, with finishes that lean toward the eye-catching wraps and graphics the brand built its identity on.
