DW 5000 Series Direct Link Cajon Pedal

DW

collapse expand iconDescription

The cable-driven 5000 Series cajon pedal with GlideTrack drive technology has proven to be an advanced cajon pedal system predicated on feel and functionality. Drummers and percussions alike have praised its effortless action and speed. With that in mind, the DirectLink Cajon Pedal (DWCP5000CJDL) was created. Based on the industry-standard DW double pedal linkage, it also utilizes a GlideTrack wheel for smooth operation, but features the added reaction time that a direct linkage offers. The unit comes with three linkage lengths and a handy carrying bag.

  • I will never purchase another DW 5000 product

    I had previously used a Meinl direct drive Cajon pedal, but was not a huge fan of the heel being the main driver. I opted to "upgrade" to the DW 5000 direct drive Cajon pedal that was 3x the price and designed as a traditional foot pedal. My cover band plays a few bars that are very small, so I use a Cajon bass drum so I can take up less space. During our set, I felt that the power behind the pedal was a bit lacking compared to the Meinl pedal. However, my real issue with this pedal is that the arm connecting the beater and pedal came unscrewed on two separate occasions during our first and second sets. After the first instance, I made sure to tighten each screw, and even did so a second time in between songs during the second set...but still, the pedal came unscrewed and leaving me without bass for a second time in one night. I've been playing drums for about 16 years and early on in my career, I had also bought a DW 5000 double pedal. Around 10 years ago I had the exact same situation happen to me with that pedal as well. I bought this cajon pedal assuming that whatever issue I had back then wouldn't happen again, but I was proven wrong twice in one night. Unfortunately I did not play a show with it until about 2 months after the original purchase so I am past the return period. I also raised my concern with DW directly and their 'resolution' was to send me a new arm/linkage, while ignoring that my trust in their products has been destroyed. I would not recommend anyone purchase this pedal under any circumstances. There are better products out there for less money that you will be more than happy with.

  • Finally, the summit of the cajon pedal Mountian!
