Seven talented artists competed at Musicians Institute in Hollywood, Caifornia on October 20, 2012, with Super Tall Paul coming out on top as the US Champion.

Paul was utilizing the Boss loop stations to act as the modern day 'one man band'. He won over the judges to grab the top spot with an eclectic, spirited performance that featured beatboxing, ukulele, sax, flute, nose whistle, singing, and dancing.

The victory earned him $3,000 in Boss gear, plus the honor to represent the United States at the world finals during the 2013 Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim, California in January 2013.

Silver and bronze
Second place honors and $2,000 in Boss gear went to Belgin Urgusu (aka DJ Berlin) of Baltimore, MD, while third place and $1,000 in BOSS gear went to Steven Cantor (aka Heaven Beatbox) from Alpharetta, GA.

The other finalists included Vox Machina ("Mister Tim" Jones and Matt Murphy) of Longmont, CO; Robert Williamson of Dublin, GA; and Danny Watson of Cincinnati, OH.
