Drummers,
I'm close to makin a decision on a purchase of drum pedals. I have narrowed it down to the Trick Pro 1-V Bigfoot longboard or the Axis A-L longboard.
I have a set of the DW 9000's as a replacement for the 5000's (older style) that finally wore. I'm not happy with the DW 9000's. First, the 9000's are great pedals and well built but they are much different than the 5000's I'm used to.
Second, they are noticeably heavier and I play a lot of faster double bass. I gave myself around 5-6 months to try to get used to the pedal before adjusting anything.
I really like the adjustability of the Bigfoot Trick Pedal and I watched a short video from the NAAM show for the pedals and was amazed. The features totally made sense but I've never played on them.
The Axis pedals have a great rep for a speed pedal and the longboards were key for me as I like the additional leverage gained by the longer board. The only drawback is I'm reading about some quality and customer service issues with the pedals.
Any imput on this would greatly appreciated.
