Pros: Self-Adjusting, Versatile, Sturdy, Huge Tone, Great Sound Cons: None Best Uses: Any music use Describe Yourself: Professional Musician I play all types of music. I own a DW9000 foot pedal that, until recently, was in need of a new beater. After testing out this beater, I'm so glad I didn't purchase the standard DW beater! This beater provides everything you could possibly need in a beater. Though it yields a NICE punch out of my kick (22" Evans Emad2), its not to harsh for music at lower or moderate volumes. Words cannot express how glad I am I made this purchase. I'm the kind of person who likes to look at hundreds of online reviews before I purchase new music equipment. There were little, to no reviews for this product online.Fortunately for me, I had some fellow musicians verify this excellent product. BUY IT!!!
