DW DWCP3000A 3000 Series Single Bass Drum Pedal

Quick Product Summary

The DW DWCP3000A 3000 Series Single Bass Drum Pedal combines responsive feel, rugged all-metal construction and practical adjustment in a versatile pedal suited to drummers at virtually any level.

Its dual-chain Accelerator drive system is designed to increase beater velocity through the pedal stroke, while the adjustable footboard angle, Delta stroke adjustment and swivel toe clamp allow the pedal to be tailored to different playing styles and bass drum setups.

What Makes the DW DWCP3000A Special?

At the heart of the DWCP3000A is DW's dual-chain Accelerator drive. The eccentric cam profile creates an increasingly responsive action through the stroke, providing a lively feel that works equally well for controlled playing and more powerful bass drum techniques. The all-metal construction and dual-chain drivetrain also provide the durability expected from DW hardware.

Useful adjustment features include an adjustable footboard angle, Delta stroke adjustment with ball-bearing spring assembly and a swivel toe clamp. A solid steel base plate with anti-skid rubber underneath helps keep the pedal firmly positioned during energetic performances.

Who Is It For?

The DWCP3000A is an excellent choice for:

• Beginner and intermediate drummers upgrading their bass drum pedal

• Experienced players wanting a dependable single pedal

• Rock, pop, funk, metal and general-purpose drumming

• Rehearsal and recording setups

• Regular live performance

• Players who prefer a dual-chain drive

• Drummers wanting adjustable pedal feel without moving into DW's premium pedal ranges

FAQs

Is the DWCP3000A a single or double bass drum pedal?

The DWCP3000A is a single bass drum pedal. Players looking for the corresponding double-pedal configuration should consider the DWCP3002A.

What drive system does the DWCP3000A use?

It uses DW's dual-chain Accelerator drive system, combining a double-chain drivetrain with an eccentric cam designed to increase velocity through the pedal stroke.

How does the Accelerator cam affect the pedal feel?

The Accelerator cam changes the relationship between footboard movement and beater travel as the pedal is pressed, creating an increasingly responsive action towards the end of the stroke.

Can I adjust the footboard angle?

Yes. The DWCP3000A allows the footboard angle to be adjusted, helping players tailor the pedal position to their technique and preferred setup.

Can the pedal stroke be adjusted?

Yes. Delta stroke adjustment provides control over the pedal's stroke characteristics, giving you additional scope to customise its response.

What beater comes with the DWCP3000A?

It includes DW's DW101 two-way beater, giving you alternative playing surfaces for different attack characteristics. A memory lock is also fitted.

Is the DWCP3000A suitable for beginners?

Yes. Its straightforward operation makes it accessible to developing drummers, while its adjustment options and robust construction give it enough capability for experienced players and regular gigging.

Is the pedal suitable for live use?

Yes. The all-metal construction, dual-chain drive and steel base plate make the DWCP3000A a dependable option for rehearsals and live performance.

Does it have a solid base plate?

Yes. The pedal uses a steel base plate with an anti-skid rubber mat underneath to improve stability while playing.

Does it have an adjustable bass drum hoop clamp?

Yes. The DWCP3000A features a swivel toe clamp designed to provide secure attachment while adapting to different hoop positions.

What is the difference between the DWCP3000A and DWCP2000A?

The DWCP3000A steps up to a dual-chain Accelerator drive, whereas the 2000 Series model uses a single-chain drive. The 3000 Series is therefore a strong choice for players wanting a more substantial drivetrain and an upgraded overall pedal specification.

Does the DWCP3000A require a power supply?

No. This is a completely mechanical bass drum pedal and requires no electrical power.
