Pearl P-1002CX ELIMIN8R Bass Drum Double Pedal

The Pearl P-1002CX Elimin8R double bass drum pedal takes the heritage of the legendary Eliminator line and distils it into a fast, rock-solid and highly adjustable twin pedal. With a rugged solid frame, full base plates and a sprocket-less double chain drive, it delivers a smooth, powerful response that can be tailored precisely to your technique, whether you play subtle ghosted doubles or relentless blast beats.

At the heart of the Elimin8R concept is customisation. From interchangeable cams and a three-position Powershifter footboard, to independent beater angle adjustment on both pedals and Click-Lock spring tension, every major feel parameter can be dialled in to match your playing. Add in Pearl’s Control Core DuoBeaters, side-access hoop clamp and adjustable spike plates, and you have a dependable, gig-ready double pedal that feels as refined as it is robust.

Custom Feel with Interchangeable Cams

The Elimin8R’s removable Cam System lets you choose between two distinct responses. Fit the Progressive cam for an aggressive, accelerating feel that adds extra punch at the end of the stroke, ideal for high-energy rock and metal. Swap to the Linear Action cam for a smooth, even response that tracks your foot perfectly for intricate patterns and dynamic control.

Resistance-Free Footboards and Powershifter Control

Brushed chrome, resistance-free footboards are designed for effortless movement, helping your feet glide forward and back for rapid doubles and precise feathering. Pearl’s three-position Powershifter function lets you slide each footboard forwards or backwards to fine tune leverage, instantly changing the pedal from light and responsive to firm and powerful without altering your basic setup.

Independent Beater Angle and Click-Lock Springs

Using the advanced beater angle system introduced with the MONO PRO, the Elimin8R double pedal allows independent beater angle adjustment on both the main and secondary pedals. This means you can perfectly match the feel of each side, or fine tune them individually to suit your technique. Click-Lock spring tension adjustment then locks your preferred tension in place, preventing it from creeping under heavy playing so your response stays consistent from first song to last.

Stable, Stage-Ready Hardware

A solid frame with full base plates, side-access hoop clamp and adjustable spike plates ensures the Elimin8R stays exactly where you put it. The side hoop clamp makes attaching the pedal fast and convenient, while the built-in spikes can be deployed or retracted with top-mounted knobs, giving you secure grip on a wide range of stages and rugs. A latency-free, length-adjustable universal joint keeps both beaters feeling tight and connected for accurate, balanced double strokes.

• Interchangeable Cam System - Choose between the Progressive cam for an aggressive, accelerating stroke or the Linear Action cam for smooth, consistent response. Being able to swap cams lets you tailor the pedal’s feel to different styles, from precision fusion to hard-hitting metal, without changing your technique.
• Three-Position Powershifter Footboard - The Powershifter mechanism allows the footboard to be moved forwards or backwards into three positions, altering the drive angle and leverage. This gives you a choice of light, regular or strong feel so you can quickly find the perfect balance of speed, control and power for your feet.
• Click-Lock Spring Tension Adjustment - Pearl’s Click-Lock system lets you set your ideal spring tension and then lock it in place. This prevents tension drift during long rehearsals or gigs, ensuring the pedal responds the same way every time you sit down at the kit.
• Control Core DuoBeaters - Supplied DB-150 Control Core DuoBeaters offer both hard plastic and felt striking surfaces, with an elastomer Control Core to reduce unwanted vibration. This gives you punchy attack or warm thud on tap, while keeping the feel solid and focused underfoot.
