You didn't steal my riff, it was free.

they are stunning. not only are they beautiful and just pure genius, they play so good. Theyre like the best parts of axis, theyre smoother, theyre nice and light, very quick feeling, amazing rebound, infinitely adjustable and powerful(which was my biggest complaint with the axis). you can even adjust the hoop clamp forward and backward to accomodate different hoop sizes. so easy to set up. they were pricey, but to me, there is no other pedal.



the guitar center out here got them in yesterday, the saleman i know showed em to me and it was game over. i brought my axis pedals up there and a/b'd them for a while and you see what i left with. ive owned just about every new pedal out, and the tricks are just what i was looking for.

i posted a pic of the spring.

Damn!!!!!!!!! That's gorgeous

Those trick pedals are great but... I played one at the Chicago Vintage show this past summer and I still love my Ludwig Speed King. To me they just seem over-engineered, I like a much more simple pedal that doesn't adjust to such a minute degree like the Trick can. You get what you pay for but you pay for what you get, they are the most expensive pedals ($600+ for the double) on the market. If you love them, more power to you but for the same money I can buy a very nice Speed King pedal and a Black Beauty to go with it.

for the style of music i play(fast death metal, and also some slower stuff)i think this pedal will be most beneficial for me. i love the adjustability, and how simple it is to set up. they give you a pedal, you make it yours.

John longstreth said they were hard to do doubles with.

well if john longstreth said it.

theyre fine. my buddy who just bought some axis long boards played on em last night and wants to switch.

When I tried em, it seemed like the tension on the pedal didnt really start til the very end of the stroke. I was thinking maybe Axis Sonic Hammers would help. Was I just not smart enough to adjust them correctly?? How do you have them set up?

springs a little tighter than half tension, beater about 45 degrees footboard a little on the high side.

same thing with these pedals and axis, they take a bit of getting used to when coming from a conventional pedal like the iron cobra or the dw5000s. just take a while to dial in to what you want and need and get used to how they respond. first time i sat down with axis pedals i wondered why i even considered them, i didnt like them one bit.

Enjoy your pedals in good health. I don't play in the style you do (death metal/fast tempos) so a much simpler pedal works for me. Those pedals would be beneficial to you, so good luck and enjoy them. They ARE very nice pedals and a high quality product, it's just a lot more than I need.

i saw a set of the double pedals the other day, they are really nice but im not so sure they are 800 bucks nice. i do REALLY like the spring clamp that attatches the pedal to the hoop. thats a great idea.
