Millenium PD-222 Pro Series BD Pedal 4-stars Reviews

Great deal

Cheap, solid and does the job !

I recommend for tight budgets.

Great quality for money

I bought this as a gift for my friend who recently started drumming. He plays very hard, so I was looking for a sturdy pedal that could take a beating. I tried this pedal out before giving it to him, and I was very impressed with it. Feels great to play, easily adjustable, an all round great pedal to use.

Good experience for my first kick pedals

These were my first set of pedals, so don't have any prior experience. That being said, I did have a hard time setting this up. I couldn't follow the instructions to set it up, as the pieces didn't fit together as explained. I managed to get everything working great, but had to figure it out on my own. After a couple weeks of usage, the spring on the main kick is starting to squeak though.

Great double kick pedal

Absolutely fantastic DK pedal for the price. I'd recommend for anyone wanting to get working on their double kick.

Good

Very good pedal, especially taken the price. On par with the big names out there. Highly recomended

Good quality, solid build

I only have one problem with this pedal; the bolts often come loose, which can be awkward in a live situation. However, this is easily offset by going round and making sure that all of the bolts are tightened up before playing.

Apart from that, it is a very sturdy, very good double bass pedal at a very reasonable price. The fact that it is mounted in a bass plate with Velcro on the bottom is the real icing on the cake.

Nine years on stage

I've bought this pedal nine years ago in 2007 at Treppendorf when I worked as a musician in Germany. Since then I use this pedal even today and I had to replace only one spring during nine years. I play hard rock, heavy metal and of course practice many different type of grooves.

An extremely well made pedal for it's price as you see, even in long term use. But for serious metal music (death, thrash, nu or black) I cannot recommend them.

Good

Got very frustrating trying to set it up. Took a lot of time to get the tensions of the springs how I wanted them. Works very well now that I have it set up to my liking. Easy to position. Only negative thing is that the beaters were not packaged. They were sent out straight away with not hassle so everything was good.

Happily suprised!

We bought one of these just to have it in our rehearsal space and then four years, many hours of use and quite a few gigs later it just keeps on working. The quality - price ratio is nothing but amazing.

Really positively surprised of their quality for such a low price. Don't know how they'd perfor on an acoustic kit, but for an e-kit they've surpassed my hopes a million times. Been using them for 4 years and counting and they are showing no sign of breaking. The feel is REALLY bad compared to "proper" pedals, and I'd never use these live or even rehearsing, but for your personal training this price is unbeatable.

Very customisable

This is a great first pedal and double pedal for beginners to use. You can adjust everything on both sides all around and the beaters are double sided.

What I ended up doing later on was using them both as separate pedals on different kits so I could leave one at my practice kit at home and one at band practice, which you don't get with any other double bass pedals.

What I have found though is the plastic holding the spring in place at the bottom wears away and the screw no longer keeps the bottom part from turning and coming loose. That's from 2 years ago and I've already got a more professional kick pedal now and it just needs something to hold it in place like an elastic band.

Good for the money

I know millenium are far from the best quality on most products, and I'm not the most experienced drummer but these pedals have a nice response, you can really play fast with them, they seem pretty solid and they have a velcro strip on the bottom to stop them sliding about.

If you want that bit of extra quality you gotta pay for it, but for the price these do perform pretty damn well.
