Slick. Great advances on a classic design.
My pedals have worked well for me for over 10 years. They aren't broke, they aren't getting replaced. Given the price this probably costs. Even if I needed to, I'd buy what I know lasts for a decade of daily playing. But it's nice to see something interesting on the market.
Too bad they'll probably want $600 for the single pedal.

I found this German store. You can pre-order it for € 229,- .
That's around $300.

For some reason, I love it when Josiah is wrong.

3 bills ain't bad for a pedal like that. Hopefully it doesn't get bumped up coming across the pond, Sonor stuff is pricey in the US.

Try living in Australia as this will be around the $500 mark.

Cool idea, wish they'd avoided the standard Sonor footboard shape.

I reckon it'll be more than that. I know a double Giant Step pedal goes for around $1300AUD...

Jim Richman, every company sells cheap drum sets, but we were talking about pedals. Try and stay on topic.
Sonor Giant Step double pedal is $900 in the US. The single is $400.

See above, they are incredibly over priced in the US as well. $900 for a double pedal is outrageous. That is a bummer even more for you guys, something about import tariff's?
