Your cart is empty.We've reengineered the pedal that established our reputation for innovation and quality. Because innovation is part of our DNA we thought it was time for some major improvements. Most notably, the toe clamp. The 5000 needed more gripping strength, providing a stronger connection between the drummer and kick drum. So, we developed the Tri-Pivot Toe Clamp. Three independent 360 degree, rotating rubber pads firmly pinch almost any diameter and thickness bass drum counter hoop from the top and the bottom, with zero slippage. Add to that a new textured rubber grip pad on the base plate and we think you'll agree that there's never been a better system for attaching a pedal to a bass drum. Last, but certainly not least, we wanted to improve on the smoothness and feel of the 5000, if that was even possible. To accomplish this, we added a Dual Bearing Spring Rocker, making the 5000 quicker and more responsive.

1. The pivoting spring axle creates a more even tension as the beater approaches the head, for a smoother feel.2. No lateral play at the toe so no energy lost and a more "direct " feel3. Smooth ball-bearing heel axle.4, Super secure grip on the hoop5. Hoop clamp wing nut is on the side for easier access.6. Lighter Aluminum base.7. A slot for a drum keyBest pedal ever in my 61 years of playing.

Faster and more comfortable than my "standard" quality it replaced. Good adjustments allow for preferred action. Would buy again.

I have played multiple pedals for multiple years. High-quality to low-quality ones. None beat this pedal. None. It is the smoothest action I have ever felt. It is extremely customizable. This pedal single-handedly stopped the tendinitis pain in my right knee when playing. It is durable. Interchangeable parts for your preferences. This pedal is even better than the DW 9000. Dual chain gives stability and is not a clunker to carry around.Go buy this pedal.

Ho usato il vecchio 5000 turbo a catena singola per anni, per poi cambiare - solo per curiosità e voglia di sperimentare - con altri pedali di varie marche.Dopo circa15 anni ho deciso di "ritornare all'ovile" riacquistando il suddetto modello; ho deciso per la camma accelerator, l'ho trovata più comoda per il mio modo di suonare, ovviamente è cosa del tutto personale.Ho preferito questo al più blasonato (e costoso) 9000, provando quello di un mio allievo la sensazione non è stata ottimale, pur essendo un super pedale, intendiamoci, con mille regolazioni. Ma non mi restituiva il feeling del 5000.Che dire, mi sono ritrovato a casa! le migliorie tecniche rispetto al modello che usavo si sentono e fanno il loro, ma la sensazione e il feeling rimangono quelle di quasi 30 anni fa. Il 5000 è IL pedale per molti batteristi, un motivo ci sarà.

OMG!!!! I had the previous version of this pedal before the redesign of 2013. Being a light hitter, I somehow still managed to break my previous version of this normally unbreakable tank...the bearings need replaced as well as a new cam, but I also needed an excuse to buy and try this one out anyway (will refurb my old pedal and keep it for a backup).I cannot believe how much difference the Dual-Bearing Spring Rocker system adds to what I thought was already the near perfect pedal. This simple design change has to be played/felt to be believed. Anything your heart thinks your foot should add/play, this unique design makes it just happen, and effortlessly. I thought it was going to be a useless feature, kind of like the DW 9000's bearings at way too many points (which made it unplayable for me). This altered bearing design taken from the 9000 works magic on the 5000.The Tri-Pivot Toe Clamp is also exactly what the Dr ordered with the only major glaring structural design flaw of the predecessor. It does level itself to the floor and grabs that bass drum like super glue. Where I have my drums the floor is uneven (1 piece of plywood is 1/4" lower than another in the shield where I play at church), and was always a problem with my old 5000. Not with this one, the pedal stays perfectly flat and centered. By the way, the drums are not the church's, they let me keep my babies there and play for the church, but I buy all my own gear.Finally, if you have an older version of this pedal, do yourself, your drums, your art and your passion a favor, get this pedal. Being a poor guy, this is a true statement...I would have paid approximately $50 dollars more for this fine instrument. DW did it again!!

Shifted from an old pearl single chain pedal haven't played lots of pedals for comparison but DW has a reputation and this does not disappoint !
