Watch 21P's Josh Dun reveal his custom snare drum
Twenty One Pilots‘ Josh Dun is showing off a new, custom snare drum designed specifically by the drummer himself. See the musician’s unboxing video of the Josh Dun Crowd Snare below!
Dun collaborated with Massachusetts drum maker SJC Custom Drums on the matte black, 6.5×14 snare drum that takes its inspiration from his now-trademark “drum island” crowd-drumming feats—whereby the drummer literally crowd surfs on a platform while still banging away at the kit!
“This is a snare drum that can go on the ‘drum island,’ be hit on top of people,” Dun says in the unboxing clip. “It’s a 1-millimeter steel shell,” the musician remarks of the snare’s custom specifications. “A lot of times I use wooden shells but I like metal shells, too. They’ve got a different-sounding, distinct ring to them.
“This looks cool,” Dun concludes of the totally blacked-out snare. (Of course, the SJC Drums badge is presented in an apropos 21P red.) Check out the unboxing vid and get your own Josh Dun Crowd Snare right here!
