Bass Drum Pedal Lessons

I’d like to start by covering a few things about pedals so you know what exactly to look for in your own pedal.

First, I want to cover pedal customization, such as footboard length and beater angles. I cover some of the different options available to you when purchasing pedals and give you a few tips on how to decide on which is best for you.

If you haven’t decided on a single or double pedal already, you may want check out this lesson on the advantages and disadvantages of a single vs. double pedal.

I have also included some information on the type of bass drum beater used and how it can change the sound of your bass as well as the feel/response of the pedal. 

You can also change the speed/rebound/attack of your pedal by changing out the pedal cam.

If you are interested in learning new techniques like the heel toe or swivel methods, be sure to check out all the drum lessons on the Bass Drum page at the bottom.
