Foot Percussion Device - Looking for Ideas
Hi folks,
Been playing a lot of guitar at home lately (seated) and find myself rocking heel-to-toe to the beat on my simple OnStage footrest. Footrest legs are leaving the ground. Got me wondering if there is a foot percussion device out there that is for this purpose. I've experimented on and off with my stomp box which, to me, is something - but rather "tap tap tap" in sound. Would like something both for home and gigging use. What do you folks use or might suggest ? THANKS!

I use a Roland SPD-One:
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/det...-drum-pad-kick It's versatile enough for acoustic accompaniment. I kick it during a couple Mumford and Sons songs and a few others we perform. It also has 1 slot for a user-defined sound playback. I set it up so that it also runs into my looper pedal to make beat loops, but it takes extreme coordination!

These are some great ideas. I've been wondering how to add some drum/rhythm to my guitar/singing arrangement and here are some choices. Thanks for starting this thread and thanks to those of you who've shared.

Because I usually gig on drums I have a Roland Handsonic HPD-20 with bass drum and hi hat triggers for very small stages. It is so small that I add it to my acoustic set and use it with guitar. All in all I have $1000 in the set up so it's pretty much just for those that want to double on percussion.

A kick drum. Sometimes called a bass drum on a drum set.
