This is a direct-drive double pedal, with a solid cast link between the rocker shafts and the footboards. Direct-drives push the footboard back on rebound, giving the pedal a quicker response. Many drummers that play heel-down prefer the feel of a direct drive. There are adjustments for beater angle, footboard angle, and spring tension on this pedal and the pedal frames have stabilizer bars cast into them below the rocker shafts to eliminate flex, keep the bearings in alignment, and give the pedal a smooth feel. Teardrop-shaped holes in the beater hubs securely hold the beater shafts and keep them from spinning. Included are two double-sided beaters that are felt on one side, and hard plastic on the other. The side-adjustable hoop clamp holds firmly to your kick drum hoop, and tightens with a wing bolt. Transport is easy with the included hard-sided soft case.

    These pedals are great! I had been playing Iron Cobras for the past 6 years and they got to the point where the chain was starting to "stretch" and I was looking at having to replace the slave pedal and I had just said I was going to look at other pedals. I had actually gotten a $300 prepaid visa card from my employer so I decided to jump right onto these! When I first got them I instantly could tell these pedals were built to last! And as soon as put them on my kick drum and started playing I felt like a kid in a candy store! They take a little getting used to because of the direct drive but these are a game changer! I play everything but I drum in a metal band that the guitar has quick stops that I match with my pedal and these things make that so much easier! Go to your local GC and see if they have them so you can try them out you WONT be disappointed!

  • Good first direct drive

    I've never played a direct drive before, so it felt weird at first when I bought it, but compared to chain drive pedals, this one has a great feel. It's super responsive.

  • Best pedal you can get for the price!

    I’m very sorry, the manufacturer has not made that information available. Presently I don't have one to check. Yamaha doesn't designate.

    Can this pedal be configured for left footed set up? Meaning, the slave pedal on the right and main on the left?

    This pedal cannot be adapted for left footed set up. We do have the Yamaha Double Bass Drum Pedal, Double Chain Drive, Left Footed.
