Machined from solid aluminum, the DW MCD Machined Chain Drive bass drum pedal offers you the smooth and precise action of a fully adjustable sprocket-less cam, which lets you quickly shift between popular chain-drive cam settings. Features such as a perforated footboard with contoured heel plate, an interlocking Delta hinge, and a Tri-Pivot Swivel Toe-Clamp give the MCD the feel and handling of a well-tuned race car. The V.E.R.T. Vertical Sliding Spring Adjustment and customizable control beater, which offer adjustable weight/impact and more, all serve to make this one of DW's finest bass drum pedals. Factor in an extended XF longboard for increased range underfoot and plenty of room for slide doubles, and the DW MCD Machined Chain Drive bass drum pedal from Sweetwater offers one of the most primo playing experiences money can buy.
