How loud are the Foot Drums and Pedals?
Farmer Foot Drums, played at a normal level, are a bit louder than an aggressively picked Dobro guitar. I designed the body of the Deluxe Model Farmer Foot Drum so that the bass and snare acoustics were optimally enhanced to really ‘thud.’ The rest of the percussive elements easily cut through the sound mix because of their high timbre. I have played it acoustically on noisy streets and medium-sized bars/cafes without any problem of being heard. It can also be played with a softer touch if you’re in the studio or want to match the sound level of your acoustic instrument.
