ABSTRACT:
A means for regulating cymbal pedal tautness includes an end block to which an end of a spring is attached. The spring extends downwardly and attaches at the other end to a coupling block. To one of the coupling block is attached a lower draw bar which extends downwardly to connect with the pedal by means of which the cymbals are operated. To the other end of the coupling block is attached an upper draw bar which extends up through the end block to connect with a top cymbal. A tap of the foot on the pedal subsequently causes the top cymbal to rapidly descend crashing on the bottom cymbal to produce the appropriate musical effect. The pedal and, consequently, the top cymbal are returned to their original positions by the restorative force in the spring. A tension in the spring is regulatable by means of a screw acceptor block provided on an inner surface with screw threadings within which set screws which protrude from the end block rest.
