| I thought this would be the best place to find someone who might have tried this pedal. If you have I'd like to hear your opinions please. |

| If it's anything like the single pedal.. and I can only assume it is.... it's very adjustable and a smooth performer. _________________ Pearl and Sonor drums l mapex hardware l zildjian cymbals

| Yeah. I have only had experience with the single as well. The single was very smooth & adjustable for an inexpensive pedal I thought. I'm sure that the double has the same properties. After the single, I went with a Vex double, mainly because I was unaware that CC sold a double at that time. The mechanics look very similar. Welcome back 05WideGuy. Long time no chat, eh? _________________ customdrummer moderator

| I don't know of anyone in this forum that is using a double CC pedal. I use the single, double chain drive pedal, and I like it. That said, and as much as I love CC drums, I'm not sure I would opt for CC DP802 at $149 if I were in the market for a double pedal. I would probably first consider the Vex Pro Touring for $108 delivered, or possibly the Gibraltar 6611DB for $169 delivered (both on Amazon).
Good luck on your search, and let us know what you decide! |

| Thanks for the replies Y'all, I think I'll wait for that new Mapex Raptor to come out and get some opinions on it.

Good choice there Joel.. While I don't think the CC DP-802 would be bad.. My vote would be for the Raptor..or Falcon as well. _________________ Pearl and Sonor drums l mapex hardware l zildjian cymbals

No doubt the Raptor is one slick looking piece of hardware, but it's also $120 more than the CC pedal you're asking about. If your budget is up in mid-high $200's, then there are a number of good choices available to you from Pearl (PowerShifter Eliminator) to the Gibraltar (Intruder). But if staying below $200 is important, I still think the Gibraltar Avenger II is a solid choice, or maybe even the DW 3000. Plus, you'll recoup more money if\when you go to resell these, as opposed to the CC pedal.
Do you have a budget? I assumed it was $150ish, because you were considering the CC double pedal. Since your swinging from a relatively unknown and somewhat generic CC pedal to the much hyped and somewhat cutting-edge Mapex Raptor, I can only conclude that you haven't yet set a budget and\or that you haven't narrowed your search criteria.

| The Raptor is as high as I'm willing to go. If I could get a good pedal at a cheaper price, all the better. Mapex also has a P710TW coming out that looks like it might be a nice pedal. I need pedals, a cymbal boom stand and a Sabian AA med thin crash; so I'm trying to stretch my money I guess. |

| The Vex Pro Touring Double Pedal is a very capable pedal that I had before I gave them to my brother in law when I got my DW8002 long board pedals. These pedals are a good low cost pedal with plenty of adjustability. Here is the E-Bay store that has been up for a long time. Read the feedback, they are good pedals for the money.

| I believe the Custom Classic DP-800 to be as good or maybe a tad better.. It's probably much the same pedal with a few mods.

| Yeah, they look to be the same design wise. But with a $42.00 difference. But I like the wooden beaters on the CC pedals, though. _________________ customdrummer moderator
