Double Bass Pedal for One Foot

Gemini Percussion Systems Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of the Gemini 241 double bass drum pedal. This unique and innovative product lets drummers play double bass patterns with one foot (toe and heel) while allowing complete high-hat freedom with the other foot. This is made possible by our inventive and patented (design patent in place, world wide patent pending) approach of the completely independent heel and toe mechanisms mounted on a single chassis.

The Gemini 241 drum pedal is the result of five years of intense ergonomic consideration, constructed of high-tech heat-treated aluminum alloy throughout and CNC machined to ISO 9000 specs. The Gemini 241 was designed by a drummer for drummers.

Patterns and syncopation's are obtainable in a very short period of time by professional and amateurs alike. This amazing pedal will revolutionize drumming capabilities, thus introducing a new era in percussion history.
