Long Live the Speed King with Vincent Leef

Do you know what the Speed King Squeak is? Think John Bonham... In 1937, the Speed King changed the world of drumming by being the most innovative pedal of the time. 81 years later, Vincent of Polyphonic Drums is keeping the legacy alive by restoring Speed King's and making them play like new. He shares the whole story of the pedal with us in this episode - from the journey through world war 2 through the 60's and 70's with Bonham and Ringo to its decline in the 2000's, and finally the current revitalization. Check out what Vincent is up to with Polyphonic Drums at his website, or find him on Social Media www.polyphonicdrums.com I hope you enjoy this episode, if you like the show please rate the show and give me a review!
