FC-5: Not for Piano Players
Growing up with an acoustic piano, I was uncomfortable with how the FC-5 Sustain Pedal felt.For me to tell when I was pressing the pedal or not, I had to take my shoes off.Unwilling to be an environmental hazard, I decided to purchase a pedal that has the feel of an acoustic piano's pedal.(Much better than buying that yellow tape to surround myself with...)

If you are looking for the feel of an acoustic piano's pedal, I would recommend the FC-4.Or if you want the same feel with a pedal that can do more than just sustain, I'd recommend the FC-3.

No Rewiring Necessary
I'm new to keyboards and am still trying to make my hands work together.The melody is coming along fine with my right hand but integrating chords with my left sounded choppy so I thought it might sound better with a sustain pedal.My music is a little better but the pedal itself works great.I read the comments about it working backwards and tried some experiments.If the keyboard is powered off when you plug in the sustain pedal it will work just fine, but if it has power to the keyboard when you plug it in then it will work backwards.To fix it just turn the power off and on again.
The pedal causes the sound to die away over 3-4 seconds with the peddal pushed and if you release it early it will shut the sound off early.My keyboard has a very good piano sound when set to Grand Piano and with the sustained sound it doesn't loose any of that piano sound.
The peddle itself looks fairly well constructed especially considering it's low price.I've only had it a few weeks so I can't speak about how well it will stand up to repeated use.It seems good enough for someone who wants to play for their own enjoyment and maybe a few friends.

This sustain pedal works fine
The people who said this pedal works the opposite of a normal sustain pedal may not know that the keyboard has to be turned OFF when the pedal is plugged in. This pedal works fine for me, though it slides a bit on carpet. This does not have the feel of a regular piano pedal, but I'm quite happy with it, for what it is.

This is Normally Closed circuit (Not what I expected!)
This is a "Normally Closed" circuit (Current flows).Meaning that when you press on it the circuit opens (No Current flows).If your using for a keyboard or anything else this will be important to know.I'm going to rewire it so that it's "Normally Open".Hopefully it will then work ok.The description doesn't say if it's NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed) which makes for problems....Mike.

reverse order pedal...
I ordered this pedal thinking that it would be like a normal pedal would...you press it down, it sustains your notes.When I got it, it came in a box with no instructions at all...so, I plugged it in, and on my keyboard it showed that the pedal was in use.When I went to play notes, it sustained them-and when I pressed down the pedal, it didn't.I returned it, because I know I can get a better one elsewhere...I was just very shocked that Yamaha would be like that.Maybe it was a glitch with that one pedal.It is good for people who are lazy and want to have their notes sustain all the time without pressing anything... ...

Very Unrealistic (for Piano)
I was hoping this would have more of a piano feel to it. This pedal requires a lot of pressure to get any sustain out of my casio keyboard. If I have shoes on and "stand" on the pedal, it will sustain the notes I play. It is far from the lighter touch I am used to on a real piano. On a real piano, I can let my heel rest on the floor and with light pressure on the pedal it will depress fully. It would be nice if they made the tension adjustable. Also, it is just an on-off switch. In other words, the degree of sustain does not vary (as it does with a piano), making it even more unrealistic. I would recommend shopping around if you want a piano-like pedal, or if you want a pedal that does not require a lot of pressure to work.

Very uncomfortable.
I bought this sustain pedal for the price -- it was a big mistake. You will need to wear shoes to use the pedal comfortably as it is very boxy and the "grip" grooves are very uncomfortable. I had some difficulty keeping the pedal in place while playing. I gave it away after two days.

It would be well worth the extra $10 to buy a model with the classic design. If you need a footswitch, I would recommend testing the model at your local music store before buying.

Fantastic to use with CASIO Electronic Piano.
I have to say this is a great asset to my CASIO. It is easy to use, doesnt stick like the previous person mentioned and even with bare feet is comfortable to press down on. Maybe they have altered the make....I dont know....but what I do know is that the sound that comes out when using it is exactly what I was hoping for when playing my instrument. For the price it is worth it and so far I am quite satisfied with it.I bought this in the USA whilst visiting in May 2004 as, believe it or not, most music shops in Tokyo were out of them any make or form!!!!!
NO COMPLAINTS HERE AT ALL!!!!!!

Works like it should! Not much else to say about a pedal...
Works excellently! Just so you know the sustain pedal that is universal means it has a 1/4" phone jack to connect it. I use it with my Yamaha PSR-175 (good price for the money, and I got it with an adapter and stand along with this product on amazon.com). No problems at all with it. ... Read more
