needed a back up pedal, so looking for something of value.. but then again, something rugged and up to the task. This turned out to be perfect- very well constructed, stable, and nice action- comfortable feel. Many pedals in this price range do not have a solid plate on the ground, that makes them less stable feeling. I'd recommend-

Expected better quality from Ludwig. Chain makes noise, unless you put some rubber protection underneath of it. There is no Thread to replace it with a belt. Rubber pads which supposed to protect yo bass drum Rheem are on the same level with a metal parts of pedal, it means it does not protect your drum what it supposed to do. I had to elevate it with extra rubber pads and add another piece of rubber on the clip. Spring is too short and too tight for me and because some people complaint that it’s possible that it can break, I replaced it with Tama speed cobra spring, it is longer and better quality, after those modifications it works fine.

There are so many really fantastic percussion products out there compared to what was out there when I was starting out. Bass drum pedals are no exception. You pretty much had the pedal that the big drum companies came out with, or some really badly made generic ones. Either way, with few exceptions, nothing compared to Ludwig's Speed King. What made that pedal so great was simplicity. That's still the case with this Atlas Standard pedal. Not a lot of stuff going on to get in the way of it's simple design. This thing has power, is smooth as ice, and is a snap to set up, hook up, and dance on. Is it the highest quality pedal in the universe? Probably not. But for under seventy bucks, nobody can beat it. I have one of these and an Atlas Pro in my collection. I use them more than any other. I have absolutely zero problem gigging with this pedal, and have many times. So I know it can take a beating. Go ahead and lay out 2 or three or more bills for an "elite" level pedal if that's what your'e into. Some folks just feel better playing with a high end pedal. And that's fine. But in reality no pedal makes you a better player. This will do the job, without shelling out stupid amounts of money. Cheers!Read full review

Bought two pedals for my Double Bass Drum set up, Couldn't afford the Atlas pro pedals. Great product, smooth, great feel and action right out of the box. These pedals get the job done for a lot less money. I've played Ghost, Speed King, DW, and more these pedals are excellent!

I got this pedal as a back-up for my trusty Iron Cobra. It has a wonderful feel and is easy to adjust for roughly half the cost of an Iron Cobra. I have since bought a second one and am gigging with it regularly. While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the high end pedals, its straight-forward design and solid feel are worth checking out. I especially like the heavy duty spring assembly with top and bottom rollers. My only complaint would be the need to use a drum key to secure it to the bass drum hoop, but not a deal breaker. All told- a great value and a solid performer.
