PROEL GF01 - "Golden Feet" Sustain Pedal with Switchable Polarity and Carrying Bag
The Proel GF01 is the definition of stability and elegance in the world of keyboard accessories. Part of the acclaimed Golden Feet series, this sustain pedal has been designed to offer digital pianists and keyboard players an authentic playing experience, faithfully replicating the mechanical resistance and pedal travel of a traditional acoustic piano.
Built to withstand the demands of touring and intensive studio use, the GF01 stands out with its robust, high-strength construction combined with a metal lever featuring a distinctive gold finish. This not only provides a premium aesthetic but also ensures superior durability against corrosion and wear. Its ergonomic design guarantees comfort during long practice sessions or live performances.
One of the strengths of this model is its universal versatility . Thanks to its integrated polarity switch, the Proel GF01 eliminates common compatibility issues, working perfectly with virtually any brand of keyboard, synthesizer, or digital piano on the market (such as Yamaha, Roland, Korg, Casio, and others). Furthermore, it includes a generously sized cable and a practical carrying bag, making it a complete solution for the musician on the go.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Will this pedal work with my Yamaha/Casio/Roland keyboard?
Yes. Thanks to the polarity selector, you can adjust the pedal to work correctly with any brand, avoiding the problem of "reverse sustain" (where the sound is sustained without pressing the pedal and cuts off when pressed).
-
Does the pedal slip on wooden or tile floors?
The GF01's design includes rubber stoppers on the base and has considerable weight to minimize slippage on smooth surfaces, offering much more stability than basic square plastic pedals.
-
What is the length of the cable?
The integrated cable is 2 meters long, allowing the pedal to be conveniently placed even in stacked keyboard setups or tall stands.
-
Does it need batteries or a power supply?
No, it's a passive pedal that works simply by connecting it to the "Damper" or "Sustain" input of your instrument.
