I have been playing for some time, but I always hear players talk about the pedal height.Some have the A pedal slightly higer than the B and/or the C pedal a little lower than the A&B. And some say they should all be even. Would like some feed back .Thanks[This message was edited by Wilburn Meeks on 09 May 2005 at 09:20 AM.] |

That depends entirely on your anatomy, and maybe the shoes you are wearing. Personally, on my Carter, B is too high relative to A, and A is too high relative to B.... it's driving me nuts. Hope you're better off. Hans |

Hans is right and also you need to have them adjusted so when you rock onto a pedal you are not partially engaging the adjacent pedal. Erv |

Wilburn - Pedal height is always a matter of personal comfort and how felxible your ankles are. I adjust my pedals so that when they're fully depressed, they just miss hitting the floor. That lowers the angle I have to hold my foot when I'm not pushing the pedals. |
