Is the bass pedal that comes with the dtxpress3 a good pedal? I am interested in spending some cash for a double bass pedal, in the 200-300 range, what can you recommend me? I would also like to be able to use this pedal for acoustic drums when I go for rehearsal time in the city. Any help would be appreciated, Im a beginner and am just starting to get a feel for the equipment. you rock. Thx James

James, first of all, a bass kick pedal does not come as part of the standard package with the DTXPRESS III unless you buy, or bought, it from someone who threw one in for good measure. If you haven't bought one yet, www.musiciansbuy.com <http://www.muciciansbuy.com/> has one for the standard $999.99 and they include a bass kick pedal and a set of headphones for free. The bass kick pedal is a fairly descent kick pedal which can be used for acoustic drum sets, as well, and the headphones are also pretty good quality. There are very few places that include either one of those items. If you are in the market for a double bass kick pedal, however, the <http://www.zzounds.com/item--TAMHP200TW> Tama HP200TW Standard Twin Double Bass Drum Pedal or especially the <http://www.zzounds.com/item--TAMHP900PTW> Tama HP900PTW Double Bass Pedal (Iron Cobra) is one of the best, however, pretty pricey, even though you did mention you were willing to spend 200-300 hundred dollars for one. The Tama Iron Cobra usually goes for about $269.00 or so. They will both work with either the Yamaha DTXPRESS III or any Acoustic Drumset made. I hope this information helped. Thanks, Glen
