www.vexdrums.com 99.00 includes shipping. I own these and they are great. Try them out. All of the features of the 200-250 models. Just don't have the big name.

I believe a great begining double pedal is the PDP 402 by DW. I use it.

CHEAP $99.99

Cheap maybe, but at the same price, the Vex pedal has many more advantages, and adjustments if that important.

In the UK, the best double pedal is th Mapex p380a double.

Has tons of good features, and comes in at 89 quid.

To Bonzo49, the price in america is half in engalnd e.g. $100 = 50 pounds, no way is it 5 times as much! Please keep the suggestions coming, and my budget would be 100 pounds with a max of 150 if worth the extra cash, thanks

Don't buy the PDP 402, you can barely adjust anything.
Look on musiciansfriend.com, if they still sell the Pulse pro pedal it is a good buy. I got mine for $100 and is so much better than the similarly-priced pedals at my local guitar center.

The currency is like that, but the prices are different. If a pedal costs $200 in America, it doesn't mean it is £100 in England. It might be 200 quid. Or more.
