Abstract
A bass drum pad includes a support, an impact receiving unit, a guide mechanism, and a cushion member. The impact receiving unit includes a pad body that is struck by a beater. The impact receiving unit is supported so as to be movable relative to the support. The guide mechanism guides the impact receiving unit to move in the guide direction relative to the support when the pad body is struck. The cushion member is placed between the impact receiving unit and the support. The cushion member absorbs the impact acting on the impact receiving unit.
