Roland - KD-22-GN Pad Grosse Caisse 22" x 18" Gloss Natural

With the V-Drums Acoustic Design series, the aim is simple: to recapture the behaviour and presence of an acoustic drum kit while retaining the advantages of digital technology. The KD-22-GN is fully in line with this approach, with a 22" x 18" full-depth wooden body that reproduces the physical feel of a real bass drum. Underfoot, the response is natural and progressive, just like on an acoustic instrument. The sensor built directly into the head captures every impact with precision and reproduces a familiar bounce, making it easy for drummers used to traditional set-ups to adapt.

The enlarged trigger surface means you can use a single or double pedal with confidence. Even when playing fast or powerful passages, the stroke remains stable and even across the entire playing area. The telescopic feet provide excellent stability on the floor, while the included protective patch reduces wear and tear from intensive repetition. All of this contributes to a fluid, consistent game, where technique can express itself freely without material constraints.

The Gloss Natural finish highlights the wood of the barrel and immediately recalls the aesthetics of traditional acoustic drums. This visual choice enhances immersion and brings a natural coherence to the entire V-Drums Acoustic Design kit. The KD-22-GN is ideal for drummers looking for a realistic playing experience, a familiar feel and an inspiring visual presence at every session.
