Pedal is well built, cable not so much

| Review By: SoundGuy-hsDZW | 1 month, 1 week ago

Features:

Having polarity switch is very nice

Should have made the base bigger

Overall:

This pedal itself is well built and should stand up to years of use. However, the cable is too flimsy and after having it for a year, the cable became intermittent. I initially replaced the phone plug end and then a few months later the other end broke. When replacing the cable, I saw that they use a very small guage wire - too small for this application. A larger guage could have been used and prevented the problem without sacrificing flexibility. The other issue is that the base of the pedal should be longer to allow your heel to rest on it while pressing the pedal. Becuase of this you WILL end up chasing the stupid thing around unless you fix it to a larger surface. Also, when I took it apart, I noticed that the pedal is held in with screws at the pivot point that will eventually come loose. However, mine lasted a year so far without incident and this is after quite a bit of getting banged around.

The polarity switch on the bottem is a very good feature. No need to go in the global menue of your keyboard and change the polarity each time you power on.

Quality:

These things are well made.

Value:

Very good for the money.I bought two of these for around 40 bucks

Overall:

It does not creep like many other lightweight models.

Great Product For The Price For Sure

| Review By: CASSIE STROTHER | 2 months, 1 week ago

Features:
Quality:

Very solid.  Very much like a sustain pedal on a piano with a little less resistance. It does have a tendancy to slide away from you...but a little peice of grippy shelf-liner fixes the problem.

Value:

Great Value!

Great Product for the money!

Excellent Value

| Review By: Tim Kindred | 3 months, 1 week ago

Features:
Quality:

Solid, well made pedal. Stays where you put it.

Value:

You can't get a better built and better looking pedal for this price. It functions well, and best of all doesn't move around once you set it in place.

Overall:

I purchased two of these for my Yamaha & Casio keyboards. They both shipped quickly. One of the pedals, however, was DOA. I tried it with both keyboards, and it would not work, whereas the other pedal worked fine on both. I contacted Musician's Friend and they quickly sent me a return slip. They were easy to deal with and gave me a prompt refund. I bought another one anyway, and both work great. I can't reccomend this pedal highly enough.

Need instructions.

| Review By: jill taylor | 3 months, 1 week ago

Features:

I decided upon M-Audio SP-2 pedal after reading the various reviews on MusiciansFriend.com. I liked how the look and feel was just like an upright piano pedal. I've been in the market for a sustain pedal for my Yamaha Portable Grand Piano Model 235, so I've been researching pedal for several weeks. I also was influenced by the reviews that mentioned it being well-constructed or very sturdy. Along with it having the no-slip grip on the bottom so it would not slip on the floor or it wouldn't move from the pianist is very aggressive when using the pedal. I knew it was weighted properly because the boxed item was heavy.

Overall:
I was very apprehensive about this item because when I opened the box and took the pedal out there were no instructions whatsoever. I tried to do it myself figuring it must not be that hard to work it. I followed the tips I had read via other reviews I had read on various sites. The tips said to make sure the piano was turned off when you plug the sustain pedal in. Also make sure to not push the pedal once it's plugged in and the piano is turned on. Also to make sure the pedal was plugged in properly before turning the keyboard on. The pedal did not work. I messed around with some switch that was on the bottom of the pedal and did the exact same things that I initially did when first plugging the pedal in.
Unless I'm not doing something right or this item is defective.  I have tried searching via the manufacture's website but that was nearly impossible to find a manual or any kind of technical support.
