Members Rob64 Posted May 15, 2007 Members Share Posted May 15, 2007 Where can I pick up a practice pad for my feet? How much do they run? I couldn't seem to find one on guitarcenter's website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drumming4Him Posted May 15, 2007 Members Share Posted May 15, 2007 I bought one last year from GuitarCenter and barely even used it; I was too lazy to keep moving the pedal back-and-forth from drum to pad. I think I should create a sellers account on Amazon.com... The website I've made the most purchases from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members slap happy drums Posted May 16, 2007 Members Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hows that working for you? I 'd thought of making a metal one but I like the look of yours. Does it slide around much? Anybody know what kind of BD pad Thomas Lang used on his DVD? Also anyone out there w/ a store bought or home-made full practice pad kit? Any thoughts on getting a broken Electric kit for pad use?

Members theDan Posted May 16, 2007 Members Share Posted May 16, 2007 Not enough resistance, very unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drumming4Him Posted May 16, 2007 Members Share Posted May 16, 2007 That and if you're not careful, you could be practicing incorrectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rob64 Posted May 16, 2007 Author Members Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hmm, sounds like that DIY pad would be the best route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bbderek Posted May 16, 2007 Members Share Posted May 16, 2007 connor hopkins,It works pretty nice. If you look closely theres a lip for your pedal to clamp on to. it'll only slide around as much as your pedal and that's not a problem with my iron cobras. I mean, when I play it it's not EXACTLY like a bass drum but its great for practice. Very portable. I layered up the cheap mouse pad to give a lil more cushion and might add a lil more. I love it though. it's just another place where I can sit down and work out my chops. Great pad for practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
