The cleverly designed P-120P is ready to be converted into one half of a double bass drum pedal

Long the pedal included with each Pearl Export kit, at first sight Pearl's P-120P could easily be confused with one of the company's Eliminator pedals. Since 2007 it has been equipped with Pearl's unique moveable Powershifter heel plate, which dramatically alters the feel of the action.
A round cam and chain drive make it quick and responsive to play, and improvements to the spring ensure a silent performance. The bottom of the base plate, meanwhile, features a foam coating that grips surfaces like a limpet. With future upgrades in mind, Pearl has also cleverly designed the P-120P ready to be converted into one half of a double pedal.
A quality budget bass drum pedal - well worth considering.

i only just recently started messing with this pedal, have had it for five or six years and i enjoy using it, the feel i get from it i can play faster on this and get a better sound than its p122 TW counter part. i have very recently bought a second bass drum and even though i would like to buy the new demon pedal i would love to also own another of these. its a pretty box standard pedal thats sturdy and with a few adjustments kicking around you cant go wrong for the price

Quick and responsive. Can be converted to a double pedal.
Nothing of note.
