Are the back feet on a Hilton pedal adjustable for height? Thanks, George

No, but I guess you could replace them.

Hilton sells a set of adjustable feet.

Bought a set at my local hardware store. Take your pedal along to the store and go to the "furniture" accessories area...there is usually a good selection of "leg gliders" there.

Thanks for the replys. I thought they were available, just not sure if they came with a new pedal.

I didn't know that, Jack - never seen them offered but I'll know better next time! Smile

I got a set years ago, when I bought my first Hilton. The model with the power supply attached.

I just checked his web site and they are not listed. Must be a discontinued item. But, I would check with Keith as he may have some left over.

Keith said that the adjustable feet, [he still has some,] will not fit the currently produced Hilton pedals due to a difference in the thread size. The "new" pedals have a 6/32 thread and the older style a 1/4.

My Hilton pedal arrived today and I really like it. It has been years since I have used an "active" pedal, and I had forgotten just how clean sounding they are. I did roll off the highs slightly with my Freeloader. The taper is very smooth throughout the travel. Nothing wrong with a good pot pedal either, just a different sound.
