    Just viewed Virgil's MD 1997 Video. Does anyone know what type of pedals he was using with that Premier kit?

    Thanks,

    Andy

    Just a tidbit on the subject: Virgil plays his pedals with the tension VERY loose, believe it or not.

    He once put on a clinic here with my former teacher and he was doing doubles at 200bpm... I've seen him 3 times now and everytime he gets even more impressive! The maddness never ends!

    Thanks Jeppe and CL.

    I'm curious, do you know if the cam on the 277 is similar to the blue cam on the Eliminators?

    How does the 277 compare to other pedals out there like the 5000, Eliminators etc?

    The 277 is not as good as "todays" best pedals.
    Both the DW 5000 and the Pearl Eliminators have smoother action / execution for sure.
    I don't know which of the cams, blue, red, white, black, yellow, purple or say, turbo or accelerator it resembles the most.
