i`ve just purchased a new pedal .not sure if i`m going to be able to play it but it LOOKS easier to play that a usual double pedal .it`s played with the heel/toe method (which i can JUST about do on a single) I haven`t recieved it yeah but it should be interesting working the thing out.

for anyone who knows the Sonor Giant Step ,this works on the same principle but it`s DIRT cheap .

go here for a demo of the sonor giant step to see how it`s played .(the guy playing in the vid plays amazing !!)

71 gbp ....bout um ....120- bucks.

thats with postage though ....pedal itself was 59 gbp or 100 bucks

it`s coming from germany ...all the people i`ve seen talking about it seem to like it .(from the feedback from the guy that sold it .)

they do a normal double pedal for 89 gbp ....that look remarkably like the dw9000 .

i`m gonna give this a few months and see how i get on with it .like you say ...looks tricky .

well either that or he`s very very competant at heal / toe on a normal double pedal . but for super fast bassing they are supposed to be the best to use.I don`t play super fast bass but thoght it might be `flickable` for the odd power shot every now and then ...we`ll see i guess ..lol

That pedal is awesome. I think my most wanted equipment list has been changed.
