So my 2nd review of Rupp's starts out pretty much the same as the first: "I went over to the Guitar…read moreCenter by my house..." to test drive some double bass pedals. I've had the same DW 5000 single chain drive double pedal for literally 30 years, and figured it was time for an upgrade. GC only had like 2 or 3 crappy single pedals out on their display area to try out, and the drum area was devoid of any staff - literally empty, and I couldn't flag anyone down to help me. Out the door I walked, predictably frustrated by the entire Guitar Center experience. Today was a new day, and Rupp's was the destination. I walked in shortly after opening, Alex greeted me, and we immediately got down to the business of talking the pros and cons of different kick pedals. Display models were taken off the shelf for me to try out, longboards were discussed, the ups & downs of Tama vs. DW, and then the ups & downs of the 5000 vs. 9000 series. No BS, no salesmanship, just straight up answering questions and making honest suggestions. "Oh, your kick BPM is stalled out? Are you still using the stock DW beaters? Those things are way too heavy to play fast... have you tried these variable weighted beaters?" Mind blown. After zoning in on an updated set of DW 5000s, he offered to set them up on the practice kit to get a feel for them on an actual kick drum. He set 'em up, walked out, and closed the door to give me ample time to get a feel for the action on my own time, at my own pace. Sold! ...and I wasn't planning on actually buying anything today, but the entire Rupp's experience made my mind up for me. I just got done working through some double kick exercises with my new pedal and beaters, and I feel like I've been in the dark ages playing with stone tools for the last few decades. My speed is up, immediately. My control is up, immediately. All said, I'm a very happy camper. Thanks to Alex for making me a Rupp's believer, yet again.

Aidan is a very good teacher - I had played professionally (although my technical ability on guitar…read morewas never great) 35 years ago and had not played AT ALL since my early 20s. Aidan took me through the basics and got me back up and running quickly.
