1. Cheap p-100 Pearl single standard pedal with felt beater.

2. 4 for spring tension

3. almost flat when beater touches the head

4. medium

5. 90% heel down

I just recieved my new heads yesterday and the Musicians Friend catalog had my pedal for $35.00. Thats cheap. I'd like to upgrade soon, but the pedal works for me and has never given me a bit of trouble. I'll worry about another one later since the old Speed King is my backup.

1. Brand / Model / beater type

Tama Iron Cobra Powerglide Double Pedal, felt beaters.

2. Spring tension on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 loose - 5 tight)

3-4

3. Footboard angle when beater touches the head (this is the unscientific part); A nearly flat, B moderate angle, C steep angle.

B

4. Length of beater shaft (again, non-scientific): short, medium, long

medium

5. Foot position: Heel up / Heel down (or percentage of each)

Probably about 50% each.

I'm constantly adjusting the settings though, in my search for the perfect pedal.

3. not too flat, but not much of an angle either...
4. medium?
5. 50/50

2) spring at about 3.5
3) footboard at moderate angle at beater impact
4) Beater length exactly 1/2 way up the Bass drum
5) Foot at heel up 85% of the time
