Pearl H2000/C Eliminator Hi-hat Stand Review

Pearl H2000/C Eliminator Hi-hat Stand
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a fantastic stand. In addition to rubber feet, it offeres folding "spiked" feet for use in carpeted areas, or on a drum rug. This prevents the dreaded high-hat slide.
The footbed is outfitted with a replaceable/ajustable plate. This allows you to replace the plate if and when the rubber buttons wear down, or flip the plate if you prefer to put the buttons in a different spot relative to the bottom of your foot.
Like many other manufacturers, it also offers a radially adjustable spring tension knob to aid you in appropriately setting the vertical spring rate of the stand for "above the hi-hat" component mass (IE... tamborine, block, etc...)
It also offers a "top-cymbal" position ajustment knob. This allows you to adjust the cymbal positon to a prefered strinking angle. I've found that his helps a bit if you have a tendancy to shred sticks :-0
I would have given it 5 stars, but I've experienced a problem with the vertical tubing in the area of the leg clamp. It's really my own fault, but you need to be careful when tightening the leg position, or you'll dent the tubing. It doesn't take much, and Pearl should've increased the tubing guage, or doubled up the local thickness in the area to account for this.

DW Drum Workshop 5000 Series Delta III Accelerator Double Bass Drum Pedal with Case Review

Average Reviews:

I was originally looking to purchase the new pearl demon pedal but as everybody on the planet knows we are in a recession and money is tight. 650 for the demon is a bit extravagant and fiscally unwise for me right now unless your Dennis Chambers and your recording with Santanna. The pedal is very smooth and built like a tank. I got this for live use at church services that at times lasts for hours and hours. right out of the case This pedal has executed flawlessly with little to no major adjustments. For the price and the quality DW has a made a wonderful durable pedal that will be with me for a long time. I love it! and I am very pleased with my purchase.

Gibraltar 9611DC-DB Dual Cam Drive-Double Pedal Review

Gibraltar 9611DC-DB Dual Cam Drive-Double Pedal
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently purchased the Gibralter 9611DD-DB as a replacement to my broken DW 8002 pedal. Having been very dissapointed in a pedal that gave me nothing but problems throughout the two years I owned it, I decided I didn't want to take that risk again on a more expensive pedal so instead chose to purchase a more modestly priced one. I was looking for something reliable and solidly constructed, and the Gibralter Intruder seemed to fit that description based on the reviews. Immediately upon opening the box and puting the pedal together, it felt both lightweight but still nearly as sturdy as my DW. What was most impressive were how easy it was to adjust the spring tension, beater head angle and beater distance to the drum, and the footboard height. This was a huge improvement over my DW, and it was very easy to keep the two pedals symmetrical with each other. When I started playing I was expecting it to feel a bit awkward at first, but immediately the pedals felt more natural than I had every experienced. Speed, control, and power were all much improved. It was so fun to play, and I had never previously realized how much of a difference can be made by having the right pedal. I gave this pedal 5 stars based on the quality for the price paid. That's not to say it's completely flawless. Three things I did notice are 1. I can see how the construction might not be optimally designed if you play with your footboard really high. Jared Falk points this out on his video review of the direct drive version of this pedal and I can certainly see why. To me it's not really a problem though since I keep my footboard hight just slightly higher than mid range. 2. It's a tight squeeze getting the pedal onto the bass drum, even wenn fully loosened - but once it's on, it's very stable. and 3. I did notice that the slave pedal has a tendency to move a bit with heavy playing even when screwed in, whereas my DW slave pedal never moved on me even unscrewed. However, this was noticed in my carpeted rehearsal studio and so I hope it will not be a problem on my rug at shows, otherwise I will need to figure out some way to fix that. Overall, this pedal far exceeded my expectations. If I were offered a free pedal, I would choose this one over all of the more expensive double pedals I've played on including my DW 8000, the DW 5000, and the Tama Iron Cobra.

It very nice to have an extra Hi-Hat to go to on the right side. This closed Hi-Hat Boon Arm is great! offering lots of flexibility in placement and use.
The construction is strong and beefy and should stand up to years of hard work.

Pearl P3000D Eliminator Demon Drive Single Bass Drum Pedal Review

Pearl P3000D Eliminator Demon Drive Single Bass Drum Pedal
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There's no denying this pedal is one of the best on the market, however, it will take a while to get used to (especially if you haven't played a direct-drive pedal before). I got really frustrated with this pedal for the first two months of using it because there were so many ways to fine-tune it and I couldn't get the setting I wanted. Of course when I finally got it to where it was comfortable, it was amazing- better than anything else I've every tried or owned.
My advice: If you're a beginning or intermediate drummer don't get this pedal. It takes some very tight and well-developed foot technique to make it work well. However, for advanced or expert drummers- this pedal will allow you to maximize your speed and precision to no end.

Pearl S1000L Snare Stand Review

Pearl S1000L Snare Stand
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's hard to find a concert-height snare stand that doesn't wobble and rattle and bend. This one from Pearl is professional-quality equipment---it is stable, noiseless, and rugged. Also where many snare stands have plastic parts for the tilter and basket adjustment, this one is all metal (with rubber boots). And the adjustment action is smooth and solid. The double-layer tips on the arms really work, they allow you to tighten the basket arms down very securely, with zero rattle and zero scuffing of your drum's hoops. If the stand got knocked over, the drum will probably stay locked in the basket.
All in all, this was an excellent purchase, I'm very pleased with these stands.
