A True, Can’t-go-wrong Kick Pedal!

The DWCP3000A from DW’s 3000 series is just what the Sweetwater drum doctor ordered for fast, dependable, and authoritative kick drumming. Propelled by DW’s Dual-Chain Accelerator cam, the DWCP3000A is engineered for enhanced foot sensitivity that reacts exactly when you do. Furthermore, it comes outfitted with delta stroke adjustment and ball bearing/detachable spring hardware, allowing the action of this pedal to be easily adjusted to cater to players of varying kick pedal preferences. A classic DW footboard design gives the DWCP3000A some flare, complete with angle adjustability, heel grip, and even a swivel-action toe clamp beneath for flawlessly accommodating hoops of many sizes — at many angles! The steel base plate is also extra durable, armed with anti-skid rubber for a solid grasp on your playing surface. The memory-locking beater itself serves up both hard plastic and felt head options, giving drummers of all stripes full control of attack and tone.

DW DWCP3000A 3000 Series Single Bass Drum Pedal Features:

  • Single-kick drum pedal for drummers of all stripes
  • Dual-Chain Accelerator cam is strong, super-fast, and quite sensitive to the kick
  • Delta stroke adjustment and ball bearing/detachable spring allow for easy customization

Lot's of improvements over the old 3000

The newly updated DW3000 pedal has some nice new features.

Anyone who's ever owned an original DW3000 pedal knows that it is trustworthy and smooth at a great price. DW has taken that trusted and affordable pedal and redesigned it with some pretty cool modifications.

The cam has been changed from the turbo cam to the accelerator cam. Even better the cam on the new 3000 has omitted the chain guiding teeth on the cam. Much like the DW9000 cam where the chain rests on fabric in a groove on the cam face. This is a much smoother design and it's really noticeable in the action of the pedal.

The heel plate is more solid than it's predecessor.
The bottom plate seems to be a little more solid as well with the entire bottom surface covered in slip resistant rubber. Same as the DW5000 and DW9000 series.

The footboard height is now independently adjustable from the beater angle. A key-screw adjustment on-top of the cam allows you to adjust it up and down. The Beater angle adjustment is the same as it's always been.

Comparing to my old DW3000, I did find one one slight annoyance here in that the heel plate hinge moves from side to side a little whilst my original one didn't have any play at all. This is pretty slight though, so I'm overlooking this seeing how many improvements there have been.

The two aftermarket mods I would consider would be replacing the spring bearing and the beater. I did that on my old pedal and changed them here as well. A few changes yourself and you have a really nice pedal at an unbelievably good price.
