What Is Your "Go To" Bass Pedal

Loading...

I use one of a variety of Camco/DW5000 Frankenpedals assembled from parts of various vintages. Either strap or Turbo single chain cam.

The current one on my main kit is mostly a recent DW5000 with a strap cam but a Camco footboard. Always have to have the older, lighter footboard, either Camco or DW5000 branded.

Many of the earliest Camco pedal parts interchange just fine with the latest DW5000 pedals, so you can put the ball bearing hinge on a Martin Fleetfoot if you want without any drilling or anything.

Rogers Supreme. Was my original from when I started playing back in middle school but sold that one when I found a more complete and nicer one recently. Found another in a budget drum CL purchase and keeping it for parts. Finding a back up NOS Black Jack beater would be awesome...

Found it!!

DW9000 for me. I have a speedking too if I want a ultra light pedal for softer gigs and for a change.

DW5000 (i believe it's an accelerator) with bottom plate and snap in tuning key spot; also use a Tama Camco pedal from the 80s or so and I like that one as well.

I owned a DW9000 once but I sold it soon after.. it had way to many adjustments on it for my taste. I found that I was adjusting it more than I was playing it LoLoLoLo

I've been using the Sonor Perfect Balance pedal for the last couple years now, and am loving it! Before that DW 5000 Accelerator. On bigger Rock gigs, I'm still using my DW 9002.
