      “This is perfect...I could not be more stoked!” - Josh Manuel

      On March 31st, Josh unveiled his kit on a Twitch Live Stream to around 1000 viewers. He did a full unboxing of the entire kit, and talked about the specs and what he likes about them and why. After a full-fledged drum seminar, Josh quickly tuned up the drums, and set them up to play! For another 90 minutes Josh covered songs by the requests of his viewers. 

      During the unboxing one viewer admitted “Tbh, thought it would look cheesy but SJC has done it again” and another commented “Put me inside it and let me live in it”.. same dude. 

      Then, the most revealing moment of the stream took place. As the bass drum sat nestled on Josh's drum throne in full display of the camera, it slowly started to roll back.... It hit the ground with a loud bang while Josh remained stunned. After a few moments of disbelief, Josh picked up the kick and ran a quality check.

      "Oh my god" he mutters... "it's perfect!!!"
      “A+ build SJC, passes the tour brutality test!"

      Check out the slides below to take a look at building this kit from concept to creation!!
