Yes that's right it's an Artist Maple. So is that a 20" or a 22" kick drum then?

im really not sure, but my guess'd be a 20", going by the toms you already have. theres two main sets of sizes that your average kit comes in:

FUSION SIZES: 10", 12", 14" toms, 20" bass drum. This size of kit will give you more "musical" sounding toms, and a punchier, more controlled bass drum.

ROCK SIZES: 12", 13", 16" toms, 22" bass drum. This size of kit is all about the power, and sounds ace.

you do sometimes get a fusion kit with a 22" bass drum, but its more than likely to be 20".

Weirdly it turns out to be a 22". It must be a fusion fusion.
