Came across your site reading the review of the offset double pedal. Very interesting and many actually get one of them. I wanted to invite you to check out the Desert Drummer, that’s me. Aside from the My Space page that I listed also check out: http://www.youtube.com/user/Xenophanes18 as you’ll see that I’m a big fan of tribal drumming.

Yo bro, funny how everything in your paragraph is exactly like I woulda worded it. Got mine 3yrs ago and I too use slug beaters and I can’t go back to regular double pedals either. I’ve always considered regular double pedals to be offset and the “Off Set” pedals to be perfectly centered, go figure.

Hey Rhys.

The Off-Set pedal aims to mimic the ‘centered’ feeling that a double bass drum player experiences. That you won’t get from the typical double bass pedal. The configuration you mention is correct and will work, except now you’re off-center again.

As mentioned in the article, it’s a matter of ergonomics, and many drummers have obviously made good with the typical double bass pedal. But many drummers also rave about the Off-Set pedal and how it makes them feel behind the kit, and they become fans for life. Plus, the pedal itself is pretty good!

Thanks for your comment!

Uh – simple way around this issue… Buy a free standing tom mount stand? Place your ride over the ‘off-centre’ kick and you have the same ergonomics as provided by the pedal described above.

I purchased my Off-Set Pedals 3 yrs ago and they’re the best investment I’ve ever made in kick drum pedals. I can’t go back to the regular double pedals out there, just wouldn’t feel right. The mallets they come with aren’t bad either however they’re my backups since I prefer to use Slug beaters as my primary beaters. I LOVE MY OFF-SET PEDALS!

Hey Austin.

The pedal can only be ordered direct from the company. Go to the Off-Set Bass Drum Pedal Company web site. At the top of the page, click on the “Ordering Info” link. You’ll find the instructions for ordering there.

Hey Rob,

Please let us know how it goes! It never occurred to me that this type of pedal suits the singing drummer very well.

Good luck!
