DW 5000 Series Accelerator Double Pedal

Description

DW Kick Pedals are world renowned for being among the very best for every drummer. From the entry level 2000 series range through to the professional 9000 series and MFG ranges, quality, style and efficiency are always at the forefront.

The DW5000 kick pedal is where it all started for DW and is the product that they built their formidable reputation on.

History is key to the 5000, it’s been around a longtime and as classic pedals such as the Ludwig Speed King, the 5000 changed everything for drummers. It’s by no way the most adjustable pedal in the world (see the 9000) however if you want a quality, no fussing pedal then this is a legend well worth a look at. It will probably still be around in 5000 years!

The Accelerator™ (AD4) drive system features an offset cam that creates an indirect relationship between the sprocket and the footboard, increasing the velocity of the pedal by shortening the length of the stroke. The hammer actually gets faster as it reaches the end of it’s stroke. If you would like a more traditional, consistent feel check out the turbo version.

The new updated DW 5000 Series Accelerator Double Pedal features a Tri-Pivot Toe Clamp System that ensures the pedal and bass drum hoop stay connected and protected no matter what bass drum size or angle. The Non-Slip Rubber Grip Base Plate gives increased stability and a stronger connection between the pedal and drum. A Dual Bearing Spring Rocker makes the 5000 quicker and even more responsive. The Accelerator™ (AD4) drive system offers an eccentric motion that creates an indirect relationship between the sprocket and the footboard, increasing the velocity of the pedal by shortening the length of the stroke. It is ideal for situations that require increased speed and sensitivity.
