LP 1501 Cajon Pedal

I've given my total review a 3 because while it worked it was great, easy to set up and had a great feel to play on and the beater was the right style for my Cajon. Unfortunately, the cable broke halfway through a 2 and a half-hour set. Having only owned the pedal for a few weeks, I didn't bring a backup with me for this occasion, I was caught out. I hope this is only down to my own particular model as it seemed to be a tension issue/bolt issue that failed. It would be great to have the cable part as an extension of the pedal itself. That way if the cable fails you can work it like a normal pedal.
