Hello ,
i am planning to buy a new single pedal. I am speculating with two pedals, the DW 5000 model and the highest double chain drive model from Yamaha - FP 9500C.
Can you write me please your opinion, your experience with these pedals ?
Thaks a lot

You can't go wrong with either...personally I kinda like the feel of the yamaha better (I own (2) DW9002 pedals and (1) FP9315)...and I think it may be a little cheaper in price (if you search around)....
Thanks a lot, i have tested the FP9315 with chain drive, but older model from my friend and i think, that Yamaha has a perfect hardware.
I am afraid with DW, because 5000 is a lower model in DW, that FP9315 in Yamaha...but DW is DW, DW must made a qality hardware.
At the moment, i am thinking about Yamaha direct drive model...Yamaha FP9410....
btw. you have a apple sparkle fade finish at your drums or gold sparkle ? gold sparkle is my favourite in Yamaha

don't be afraid of the 5000 line.
I have the 5002AD, one with the very first version of the delta hinge and single chain, that I purchased in the 90's when they first hit.
Still use it til this day. awesome pedal.
I prefer it to the 9000.
anyway, quality is there.
Well, at the moment, i have at home my new Yamaha single pedal , model FP 9315, the old model, not the newest of Yamaha, i have double chain drive and bonus a tape, so i can change between double chain and tape. I am very satisfied with that pedal, great construction, great drive
Thanks for all your comments
konaboy Thanks a lot, i could not find the right word in my dictionary )that tape is called a strap ;-)
Congrats on the new pedal!

But one little question, why , in your opinion,do you prefer 5000 to the 9000 ? Do you think, that , when you have played with 9000, you dont play comfortable , with good feel ?
