Re: what double bass pedal is good?


That looks to be the next greatest pedal. It doesn't ship to stores until May 2009 and I can hardly wait to go try them out!

Here is a link so everyone can check them out:

Pearl Demon Drive Double Bass Drum Pedal P-3002D

I like the adjustments also. These pedals have a dual footboard set up so they can be used as long boards or split boards (very very cool). To get this set up right now you would need to buy 2 different pedals i.e. Axis Longboards and Pearl Eliminators. The beater adjustment allows for heavy hitting style and finesse hitting style. To bet that you would have to buy 2 different pedals also i.e. (Tama Iron Cobra Power Glides and Tama Iron Cobra Rolling Glides). I am definitely going to hold off on buying my new pedal until I have at least tried the new Pearl for sure.

The MSRP is pretty high so entry level players would probably go to a less expensive pedal to get their chops rather than spending the cash. As a matter of fact I would definitely need to sell my Iron Cobras before I could even think about buying them. Then again I wouldn't need them with this pedal anyhow.
