  • Roc-N-Soc Nitro

    Gas-lift drum throne

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Nitro uses a gas cylinder rather than a threaded spindle, so height is set by a lever and holds under weight. It is the throne most often specified on professional riders.

  • Axis Longboard A

    Machined aluminium, direct drive, long footboard

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Longboard A is the pedal fast double-bass playing is measured against: a solid machined linkage, sealed bearings, and a footboard long enough to play heel-toe across its whole length.

  • Trick Pro1-V

    Tool-free adjustment on a machined frame

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Pro1-V's adjustments — spring tension, beater angle, footboard angle — are all independent and made without tools, and the bearings are low enough friction that the pedal returns without help.

  • Roc-N-Soc Manual Spindle

    The threaded-post version

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Manual Spindle throne offers the same contoured seat tops — round, saddle, or cycle — on a threaded post, for players who would rather not depend on a gas cylinder.

  • Evans RealFeel Practice Pad

    The standard rehearsal-room pad

    Drum hardware · United States

    The RealFeel is the practice pad most drummers own: a wood core with recycled gum rubber on one side and a harder surface on the other, in sizes that fit a snare stand.

  • DW 9000 Cymbal Stand

    Heavy boom stand with fine tilt adjustment

    Drum hardware · United States

    The 9000 boom stands use a toothless tilter with infinite adjustment rather than fixed teeth, which matters when a cymbal has to sit at an angle the teeth do not offer.

  • Vic Firth Heavy Hitter Practice Pad

    Two-sided pad with different rebound

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Heavy Hitter pads offer a soft gum rubber side and a harder side, so a player can practise against both a forgiving and an unforgiving rebound on the same pad.

  • Remo Practice Pad

    Mylar-headed pads with real drum response

    Drum hardware · United States

    Remo's practice pads use a tensioned Mylar head over a muffled shell rather than a rubber slab, which reproduces the rebound of a tuned drum more closely than rubber does.

  • DW 9500 Hi-Hat Stand

    Three-leg stand with a swivelling base

    Drum hardware · United States

    The 9500 adds a rotating leg section so the stand can be positioned around a double pedal, and DW's TriPivot toe clamp, which lets the footboard angle be set independently of the legs.

  • DW 9000

    Fully adjustable double-chain pedal

    Drum hardware · United States

    The 9000 adds an infinitely adjustable cam, a floating rotor, and independent spring and beater angle adjustment to the 5000's geometry, at the cost of weight and complexity.

  • DW MDD

    Machined Direct Drive

    Drum hardware · United States

    The MDD is DW's answer to the direct-drive market: a machined aluminium linkage with no chain, and a cam that can be swapped between three profiles rather than adjusted along a curve.

  • DW 5000

    The Camco pedal, continued

    Drum hardware · United States

    Drum Workshop bought Camco's tooling and turned its pedal into the DW 5000, whose single-chain accelerator cam has been the default professional bass drum pedal for four decades. The AD4 is the version most drummers mean when they say "a five thousand".

  • Ludwig Speed King

    The internal-spring pedal of the 1960s

    Drum hardware · United States

    The Speed King hides its springs inside the pedal's cast body, which made it compact, distinctive, and famously squeaky. It was the pedal on most American drum kits for two decades.
