ABSTRACT:
In a foot pedal for a drum, the beater which pivots to strike the drum head when a pedal board is depressed by the player can be moved and adjusted in the forward-backward and left-right directions relative to the drum head via a simple structure which includes a beater holding mechanism. The beater holding mechanism is provided on a rotatable shaft linked to the pedal board and includes a holder and a movable member which is rotatably installed in a hole formed in the holder so that the movable member is rotated and also moved in the axial direction of the rotatable shaft which is installed horizontally. A beater rod which has the beater at the end is attached to the movable member. Thus, when the movable member is rotated in the hole of the holder, the distance between the beater and the drum head surface is changed; and when the movable member is moved horizontally in the hole of the holder, the beater is moved closer to and away from the center of the drum head.
