The Story of Gibraltar





What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


Independent beater, footboard, and tension adjustments





Whether you prefer a short throw with little resistance or a long stroke that hits like a cannon, the G Class double bass pedal's independently adjustable beater angles, footboard heights, and spring tensions offer limitless degrees of player customization. An integrated drum key/adjustment tool snaps to the footboard.

G Drive dual-adjustment cam





A two-way adjustable cam on loan from the Gibraltar G Drive series equips the G Class kick pedal for all manner of players. In the forward position, this cam delivers a powerful, aggressive stroke that heel-up drummers are sure to love. Removing and rotating the cam to back position delivers a liquid-smooth response that's perfect for jazz featherers to motion-conscious speed metallers.





Ratcheting Helix hoop clamp





Having to bend over to attach, adjust, and remove your pedal from your bass hoop every time you set up is for the birds. But no more with the G Class double bass pedal. Its Helix ratcheting hoop clamp dials in the perfect amount of hoop-safe, go-nowhere tension for any size and style of kick drum. A quick-release button instantly relieves tension for quick detachment.





Single-pedal version


Enclosed tension spring w/ external tension dial





The G Class makes it easier than ever to customize and recall spring settings. An external thumb wheel lets you dial in the perfect degree of tension, even with the pedal attached to to the drum. An indicator makes it possible to recall your favorite settings across multiple drums and set demands. Not only is this design functionally smart, but, in Sweetwater's eyes, stylistically fresh to match.
