Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Pedals
I have a bunch of modern pedals but was keen to try out a Speedking on a recent Ludwig build. I was using a Ludwig Atlas Pro which I like very much. These Speedking's are just as described in the auction. They are fully refurbished 'no-issue' and 'no squeak' units that work perfectly right out of the box. The seller does a very good job in the restoration part and getting them to you quickly, He also adds some additional grease and a setup sheet for good measure; a nice touch. I have to tell you that I'm really enjoying mine.

I just received my refurbished Speed King from Carl. I have been a Ludwig drummer for over 52 years so I have used a fair amount of Speed King Pedal in my day. If you are "old school" like I am this was and still is the best for my style of play and the way to go. Having grown up in the Baker, Moon, Appice, Watts era of music there is a lot of bass drum footwork. Carl has fixed and improved the typical wear problems as well as the notorious squeak that was a regular occurrence with this pedal. His rebuilt pedal is second to none, smooth, silky and quiet. It's just like new. I would recommend his pedals to anyone who is a Speed King user.

Received pedal packaged very well. Pedal looks like it just came from factory but better! Polished floorboard,flawless paint and all the improvements, upgrades and extras that make Carlclub Percussion Pedals special.This is the way Ludwig should have made them from the start!! If you play a Speed King this upgrade / refurbish is a must! Go to listing and read what is done internally to the moving parts to get full appreciation of what you are buying.This pedal is killer!!

I've owned these pedals first as a new purchase, then as a vintage purchase. Receiving this Speed King Pedal from the 60s looking better than new is amazing...it plays as good as it looks! I've got two vintage Speed King pedals. Seriously considering sending them to Carl!

I am a vintage Speed King drummer - no other pedal will quite do EXCEPT that they are invariably noisy - clanky and squeaky - making them impossible to use in the studio. HALLELUJAH for this refurb! Brings it all together. I had two or three other Speed Kings prior to getting this one which I re-greased and tricked out as best I could (it helped) but it's not even close to getting to what Carl has achieved with these pedals. When I'm going to the studio, no question this is the pedal I'm bringing. I would definitely recommend one to any serious Speed King drummer.
