Being a drummer can be hard at times. You might love the instrument you play, but it seems some others might not. Ever heard the banging on the wall from roommates, parents or neighbors telling you to shut up?

What do you do? You could get some practice pads, but they’re no replacement for a full kit. You’ve probably considered an Electric Drum Set, but thought about how much they cost for anything half decent that feels like an Acoustic Drum Set. Am I right? Well, make way for the Roland TD4S V-Compact Electronic Drum Kit. The world’s top professional drummers tour the globe with Roland V-Kits, and now you can grab a piece of that same action. . . for under a thousand bucks!

Roland TD4S V-Compact Electronic Drum Set

The TD4S may be one of the most affordable kits in the V series, but they’re still V-Drums, and that means they sound and play more like real drums. The fact that they say “Roland” on them means they’re are built to last a lifetime. With rugged hardware, a clean look, and the amazing sounds of the new and improved TD4 Drum Module, you might even be inspired to bring your new V-Compact kit on the road!

A dream for drummers, the new TD4S offers outstanding feel, versatility and affordability. With Roland’s patented mesh V-Pad(TM) snare, the TD4S is a pleasure to play. It’s ideal for practice, thanks to its Mix In function, Coach Mode and Quick Rec. It’s also a great choice for the project studio, with improved sound quality and expressiveness, and MIDI output for sequencing or triggering other sounds.
