Bass Plate | A Simple Solution for Adjusting Your Kick Beater Strike Zone

By Nick D'Virgilio on July 22, 2022

The Bass Plate unlocks a wealth of new sounds without tuning, muffling, or sacrificing feel. Install the all-metal Bass Plate to the bottom of your kick drum (no drilling required) and attach your kick pedal to the rubber clamping area. Bass Plate gives you five inches of left-right lateral movement for fuller, rounder tones when the occasion demands. Double-pedalers will especially enjoy Bass Plate’s ability to position beaters equidistant from center for cleaner, more even strokes. Check it out!
