Do you guys really find bass drum pedals that interesting? I think some of you, including the OP, have too much time on your hands. LoLoLoLo

Hi,

I do. A lot of variations. There was a time that I collected full sets and there wasn't enough room to do that. I've stuck with Ludwig & Ludwig, Ludwig, WFL, Leedy & Ludwig & Ghost from 1909 to 1969. All in the same family. There are about 45 pedals in the collection to date and they take up about the amount of room one set would have. The Super Speeds I posted are pretty interesting to me. The engineering that went into them is phenomenal.

Whatever floats your collecting boat, I guess. To me, bass drum pedals are tools to get a job done.

My Speed King and Camco pedals. Disregard the dw, it's a great pedal, but it's not quite vintage yet.Walking
