1. Yamaha FP9 Direct Drive Pedal
Manufactured by a company with years of experience in producing a huge variety of high-quality products, from motorcycles and pianos to drums and drum hardware, the Yamaha FP9 Series brings to the market a fantastic looking - and performing - set of drum pedals for an amazing price!
The Yamaha FP9 Direct Drive bass drum pedal gives you full control of the tension on your pedal with the quick-adjusting cam. The quick-adjusting cam allows the pedal to gain tension gradually through the stroke as the pedal is depressed, and can be adjusted for optimal playability. As well as this the FP9 Direct Drive pedal is fitted with a weight adjustable beater, so you can alter it to match your preferred sound and feel. Both the footboard and the beater have independent angle adjustment so you can make playing as comfortable as can be. The anti-skid heel spikes stop the footboard from slipping around even in the most intense drumming sessions! The response time on this pedal is 100% instantaneous, due to the direct link between your foot and the beater, making it easier for you to control your sound.
2. Yamaha FP9 Chain Drive Pedal

The quick-adjusting cam allows the pedal to gain tension gradually through the stroke as the pedal is depressed, and can be adjusted for optimal playability. As well as this the FP9 Chain Drive pedal is fitted with a weight adjustable beater, so you can alter it to match your preferred sound and feel.

The response time on this pedal is 100% instantaneous, due to the direct link between your foot and the beater, making it easier for you to control your sound.
The Tama Iron Cobra Bass Drum Pedal has been through a series of innovations to improve the power of the pedal. This pedal has increased speed and power, and with smoother bearing motions. The new Hinge Guard Block System, heel part and footboard hinge are designed for precision and durability. Fully flexible customisation allows the Iron Cobra Pedal to be adjusted to your specific needs, allowing for more comfort, movement and ultimately better drumming!
The flagship of the DW pedal line-up, 9000 pedals feature patented innovations such as a free-floating rotor-drive system, rotating swivel spring and infinitely adjustable cam allowing a more direct transfer of energy that optimises the stroke for more power and precision.
A new, improved and upgraded bass drum pedal. The 5000 series has been re-engineered, most noticeable feature is the tri-pivot toe clamp which makes sure your bass drum pedal and bass drum stay connected. The clamp has three independent rotating rubber pads that firmly pinch almost any diameter and thickness bass drum hoop. With the added textured rubber base plate pads Drum Workshop have ensures you will stay firmly attached. Also Drum Workshop have added a dual bearing spring rocker which makes the 5000 series bass drum pedal a lot more responsive and quicker than before.
The Mapex Mars series hardware brings you medium-weight stands and pedals suitable for all drummers, from beginners to gigging pros. The P600 Mapex bass drum pedal looks and performs just as good as a higher-end model would, but doesn’t come with the huge price tag!
9. Natal Pro Series
Equipped wth amplified precision, speed and weight, the Natal Pro Series Single Bass Drum Pedal was developed with the player and their stability in mind. The robust yet lightweight design is complete with an improved footboard for greater control, as well as a floating spring system and new steel base plate to increase stability. The pedal is easily adjustable using a drum key to suit your playing style and preference.
