Get Back Into Drumming
with V-Drums

Thinking of getting behind a kit again? Perhaps you’re wondering when you’ll find the time to play, or the space to house a kit? Or concerned about annoying the family and raking in noise complaints from the neighbours? Fear not, things have radically changed. 

Roland V-Drums may be the perfect way to get back on the throne, the compact models fold up with a few clicks and are dead quiet with a pair of headphones plugged in. Or maybe you’d prefer to play a full-sized kit with wood shells? We’ve got that covered too. Either way, you can connect wirelessly to phones & computers to play along to your favourite tracks and use built-in coaching functions to build your chops back up. 

We’ve pulled together a few resources to re-ignite the drumming flame and help you choose a kit that’s perfect for your needs. Interested in learning more? Sign up at the bottom of the page to get more content like this direct to your inbox.
