DW 5000 CDE Modern Retro Accelerator Single Bass Drum Pedal DW

DW 5000 Modern Retro Series Accelerator Single Bass Drum Pedal 

And you thought the DW 5000 Accelerator pedal couldn’t get any better.  We here at Chicago Drum Exchange have collaborated with DW to come up with our own twist on the timeless 5000 series pedal.  This limited edition pedal comes with all the same features as the 5000 Accelerator, but is available exclusively through CDE in a solid raw steel finish.  The DW 5000 Modern Retro series pedal includes the new additions to the 5000 series, such as the dual bearing spring rocker, the Tri-Pivot toe clamp, and textured rubber grip pad on the base plate.  Get’ em while they’re hot!

From DW:

AN INDUSTRY STANDARD GETS EVEN BETTER We’ve reengineered the pedal that established our reputation for innovation and quality. Because innovation is part of our DNA we thought it was time for some major improvements. Most notably, the toe clamp. The 5000 needed more gripping strength, providing a stronger connection between the drummer and kick drum. So, we developed the Tri-Pivot™ Toe Clamp (U.S. Patent No. 8330032). Three independent 360 degree, rotating rubber pads firmly pinch almost any diameter and thickness bass drum counter hoop from the top and the bottom, with zero slippage. Add to that a new textured rubber grip pad on the base plate and we think you’ll agree that there’s never been a better system for attaching a pedal to a bass drum. Last, but certainly not least, we wanted to improve on the smoothness and feel of the 5000, if that was even possible. To accomplish this, we added a Dual Bearing Spring Rocker, making the 5000 quicker and more responsive.
