Description
Overview
The Gibraltar Direct Drive Single Bass Drum Pedal from the 6000 Series is engineered for drummers who demand a lighter feel and instantaneous response. By utilizing a direct drive system, this pedal eliminates the lag associated with traditional chains or straps, providing a faster play experience and a more direct connection between the foot and the beater.
Key Details
- Direct Drive System: Features a two-bearing per drive system designed for maximum efficiency and a quicker response time.
- “G” Pedal Board: A fast-touch design that optimizes foot placement and movement for high-speed playing.
- Dual Surface Beater: Includes a 90g weighted beater with dual surfaces, allowing you to customize the attack and tone of your bass drum.
- Stability & Grip: Equipped with steel rock stabilizer plates and spring-loaded spurs, supplemented with Velcro to ensure the pedal remains locked in position during intense performances.
- Customizable Tension: Features adjustable spring tension to tailor the pedal’s resistance to your specific playing style.
- Durable Construction: Built with a cast frame featuring a textured black finish for long-term durability and professional aesthetics.
Use Cases
This pedal is ideal for metal, rock, and fusion drummers who require rapid-fire double strokes and precise control. Because of the direct drive mechanism, it is particularly effective for players who find chain-drive pedals too sluggish for fast tempos. It is also a great choice for studio recording where consistent, immediate beater response is critical for timing.
Installation
Setup is straightforward and designed for quick deployment. The pedal features an easy key access adjustable hoop clamp, allowing for secure attachment to the bass drum hoop without complex tools. Once clamped, the spring-loaded spurs and stabilizer plates should be deployed to prevent the pedal from sliding on the stage or studio floor.
Compatibility
This pedal is compatible with most standard bass drums. The adjustable hoop clamp ensures a secure fit on a wide variety of drum hoop thicknesses and materials.
