From vintagemore2000

Here are 3 of my Wfl speed kings, I have more just didn't have them handy while these three posed for the camera!

vm2000 - nice group shot there!

I have a WFL bd pedal & the ludwig hihat (Walberg/Auge built) with the WFL footplate below. I use both with my vintage Gretsch kit.......smooth & very nice feel for both. It's just a great design & a great all round pedal.

I've said it before but I'll say it again:

I did not use the pedal, dismissing it as not being big enough for my feet. I went with an ASBA Caroline (Made In France). When the Speedking came in a box of hardware with my 58 Gretsch kit last year it was totally seized but I decided to try to repair it. I got it working & gave it a try. Boy was I wrong in dismissing this pedal years ago - it has got to be the very best feeling pedal I've ever used - even with my large "kippers"!

I'd say ya - the bd pedal does live up it's name. Ludwig created a winner with this design.
