Bench, Pedals

Post by dlargent »

Need to get a bench and full-sized pedals to use with my C2.

Anybody have any thoughts on the Hammond XK pedals, especially in comparison to the Roland PK-25? Really wanted the Nord pedals, but my teacher insists that I buy full-sized radial pedals.

Anybody tried the Hammond XK Pro style bench? The one with black seat, wood sides, and metal legs? Wish I could buy something smaller and cheaper, but I need a real organ bench with the pedals.

Thanks for your opinions!
Doug

I havent tried the hammond pedals but I do have the pk 25 and they are pretty much the same as the pedals on my b3 - they are heavy though and pricey.

Thanks Jason. After talking to a salesman at Sweetwater, I decided to buy the Hammond XK pedals, which look pretty much the same...

I play a C1 and I use a cut-down set of A100 pedal ie just one 8ve. I use the XK bench which is pretty good, if a little awkward to set up - no big deal, just not as quick as a regular bench.
