Pearl P-2002C PowerShifter Eliminator Double Pedal  (Used)

They should have a sticky post on this page stating to look a Pearl Eliminator Pedal Package. It has the 2001 HI hat stand included. Currently is just $100.00 more than the pedal.

I got it and like the stand. Only problem is that is hard to tear down and transport. The pedal doesn't easily fold up. It is real heavy too, mostly due to the cast base. As far as pliability it is the best stand I have ever used.

When I first started drumming 3 years ago, I started off with my dad's DW 9000. I preferred these over the 9000 then. I've had these for two years as of yesterday (June 29, 2010). I never tried the other cams for an extended period of time. so I stuck with the black cams. I haven't adjusted anything and I can reach speeds of over 200 BPM, but there's not much use in my style of playing to go that fast. I've had no problems with the pedals except the two shows I played with them, my slave pedal started sliding inward towards my snare stand and farther from my high hat. Other than that, I love them. Very easy to get used to and I highly recommend them. I haven't tried any other top line pedals for more than 10 minutes or so, but these seem to be better than most pedals on the market. Any pedals this price or above you can't go wrong with.

This is a very good pedals and i recommend to any drummer looking for good pedals
The pedals are amazing. The feel of the pedals are fantastic!!! i choose these pedals over the DW 5000. I wasn't a big fan of these pedals until i used them in the pallidum in worcester which i beleive its one of the best venue in MA. I <3 the fact that u can adjust the pedals to be have medium or very loose.

I bought these because eventually I want to play metal and hard rock music. Ive been playing for two years and have had these pedals for about a year. They are awesome!! def worth the money!! They are a little tricky setting up, but other then that they are very responsive and have fast reaction. They have four cams which is awesome...I went straight to the red though...hope this helps!!! Happy drumming!!

I have owned these things for over a year now, and I have a few things to say about them. First off, this is a very good double pedal set up for a beginner and just starting to get the feel for double bass. It's definitely a very good "teacher" in a sense. Over the year of constantly playing these things every day, I was able to teach my self to acquire endurance for fast double bass speeds up to 215-220. But, after a year on this thing, I really want new pedals badly. To just start off, the left pedal has a HUGE, and I mean HUGE, lag issue. This is a major downfall with these pedals. You basically have to develop a technique just for your left foot to get accustomed to it, so in the long run, if you want new pedals in the future, it probably wont be the same at all.Also, these things are really starting to fall apart. My last band practice I had major issues with them. The cam on my left pedal was literally, I kid you not, snapping off while playing our songs. How does this happen? The cam is securely, or so it says, in between the chain drive and on hooked on the 'cam-holder' or whatever you call it. During one of my fast double bass parts, this thing just snaps off my left pedal and now every time I hit the base drum with my left pedal it makes contact with the metal plate at the bottom of the pedal (witch is another design flaw, since the slave pedal is SIGNIFICANTLY lower then the right pedal). I had to fix it once again. It's just a pain...Overall, I think Pearl should down the price maybe 70 or 80 bucks. This is definitely not a 300$ dual pedal solution. However, it did teach me a lot in a year of practicing my double bass. Thanks to these things, I would not have been at where I am now in terms of speed, endurance, and efficiency with my double bass

I've owned these pedals for a little over a year. I play in a melodic death metal band that has mostly just semi basic double bass lines at around 160. For playing styles like that this pedal is perfect. Once you get past 160 the left slave lags ALOT. Its hard to get momentum with this pedal due to the lag on the left side. The right side is a little better but compaired to other pedals the lag is really the only killer. I do a fair amount of heel toe and triple beats which this pedal can handle well. The adjustability is very wide opn on what you can do with it. Pretty much the only downfall of this pedal is the left side lag. I plan on getting a Demon Drive pedal as soon as i can afford it. The playability on that just blows everything else I've played out of the water

I bought these pedals this summer to step up now that im in a band (Hands Free Method) LOOK US UP ON FACEBOOK ;) haha but they come with nice beaters, and 4 different cans, they make it feel like 4 total different pedals, but ive had a REALLY hard time getting used to them..it might just be me though. i recomend these HEAAVILEY

Let me start by saying that before I ordered these I owned an Axis Longboard single pedal for a couple years. The speed of these pedals is pretty impressive as compared to the Axis. Punk doubles are easy and the off foot double bass pedal is perfectly balanced with the right one. (assuming you set it up correctly which can be tricky), but about 30 minutes of setting it up right is definitely worth it.The beaters that come stock are good enough that I didn't want to replace them, and they have essentially 4 different sounds you can get out of the beater alone: 2 being felt (narrow focused shape vs. broad flat shape). I find the narrow rubber best for my style as far as volume and attack goes.There are still plenty of settings I havn't even tinkered with because they ran so smooth and felt right straight out of the box and just connecting and balancing the doubles. It has replaceable actions for the chain, I'm assuming to alter the weight and quickness of the pull on the pedal. The standard one is great though.Lastly it is very adjustable as far as distance apart and positioning goes. (Especially if you get the Powershifter Hi Hat Stand as well - they are amazing together.)I definitely recommend these pedals to anyone looking for a great set of doubles at not an insane price like the dw9000s, Axis, and others. Smart buyers look no further!.

This is the first double bass pedal i have bought, and it has made a great impression on me. I went to some music shops and tryed out pedals but none were like this one. It has 4-way beaters and 4 cams all fit to play your style. This is a great buy for a great price

I got these pedals a month ago "used" (they were practically brand new, never been played). Really nice looking pedals, the cams are awesome for every drummer, theres 4 to choose from. (I use the white on left, blue on right), etc. There are many ways to adjust to that perfect pedal feel. Quad beaters are pretty cool. DOWNSIDE: For practically EVERY one of these pedals,the left pedal has a tension problem and lags in rebound. It stops bouncing way before the right pedal. Very dissapointed about that, not too sure how to fix it maybe a new bearing. Overall, not too bad but the slave AS WELL AS the driveshaft really lower the quality and performance of this pedal.
