Yamaha FP9 Bass Drum Pedal – Direct Drive Yamaha

Inspired by Yamaha racing motorcycle, we proudly introduce FP9 series of elite performance pedals. Engineered for your sole.

Responsive, Smooth and Reliable

The direct drive gains tension after the tension from the first step recedes. After initially dropping, the tension from the direct drive increases steadily throughout the stroke. Switching the cam from D1 to D3 increases the initial tension.

Features

Double Chain Drive. This durable, reliable double chain drive boasts fluid movement. The cam at the bottom of the chain can be moved into three positions, allowing the drummer to fine tune the pedal’s action to match their preferred performance. It can also be used as a belt drive by replacing the belt that is included with the pedal.

Direct Drive. The frame and bearing cover (blue parts) are independently smoothed and precisely fabricated before assembly, allowing them to to be aligned with the central axis of the shaft and ball bearings to unleash a smooth rotation.

Axle-Stabilizing Bearing Chamber. The hinge base and cover (blue parts) are independently smoothed and precisely fabricated before assembly, allowing smooth footboard performance.

Low-Profile Stabilizing Hinge. The hinge base and cover (blue parts) are independently smoothed and precisely fabricated before assembly, allowing smooth footboard performance.

Easy-Access Auto-Lock Spring Adjustment. Moving the spring adjustment knob upward greatly simplifies the traditionally troublesome tension adjustment process. The knob is locked at a 90-degree angle which prevents it from coming loose on its own.

Weight-Adjustable Beater. Attaching weights to the beater allows drummers to attain their preferred sound and feel. Aluminum (3g) and brass (9g) weights are both available and can be attached and removed easily.

Independent Beater/Footboard Angle Adjustment. The beater angle and footboard angle can be independently and freely adjusted. The inclusion of an angle checker allows drummers to easily re-create their preferred settings.

Ball Bearing Drive Conection. The tip of the footboard comes equipped with ball bearings, allowing even smoother performance.

Anti-Skid Heel Spikes. The heel of the pedal comes equipped with spikes that prevent slipping when playing and provide improved stability.

All-Bearing Universal Joint. Newly-designed universal joints add ball bearings to all axes. The seamlessly smooth rotation dramatically improves the action and operability of the secondary pedal.

Secondary Pedal Anchor. The secondary pedal side also comes equipped with spikes that prevent slipping when playing and ensure stable performance.

Carrying Case. The FP9 Series comes with its own semi-hard carrying case.
