I bought a set just to try it. Turns out, I hit the jackpot. The adjustable beater weight allows you to have a light or a quite heavy beater, with options in between. Also, If you use one less weight on the slave side (in case of double pedals obviously), you almost balanced out the two sides. Only slight adjustments needed as not every shaft weighs the same. It has punch and the self-aligning beater makes sure that the head is always in full contact with the drumhead. The different beater-heads give us the option to tweak our sound a bit more. Only drawback is that it doesn't have a memory lock type of thing so we could use the beater every time the same way (height, angle, etc) I installed the old memory-thingy from my DW5000's beater, so wasn't a big problem for me. If other pedals give you this option too, thats great. Otherwise, some basic memory-clamp thing would be a nice addition. Despite this, HIGHLY-HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
