Good quality, the plastic parts are more "rubbery", so will withstand some hits & not crack like most platics do. But, I was really bummed it didn't work with the YPG-225 even though it was touted as "works with most Yamaha keyboards" .. why can't they just help consumers out a little with better info ....

I got this pedal for Christmas and have been playing with it for a few weeks. What can I say? It does exactly what it should- it sustains your notes. It's solidly built ( I'm used to using Boss guitar pedals- I know solid) and it works fine. I'm enjoying it and would recommend it to any Yamaha user.

The sustain on this pedal is amazing!! If you have a keyboard, you need this pedal....it's the best!!

I bought this pedal (Yamaha FC4 Piano-Style Sustain Pedal) not long ago to pair with an older yamaha portable I have to use on the road and stuff. For the most part, it worked fine, except for if you turned the piano off when you were sustaining a note, the pedal's functionality would be reversed (it would sustain when not depressed and release the sustain when depressed). I am positive this was the pedal, not the piano. Anyway, easy enough fix, just depress and turn off the piano, flipping the pedal back, but still a little troublesome.

Everything was fine until I tried to pair the pedal with a Casio 88-key the other day. The sustain was active all the time again, and my previous fix was not working. As soon as I depressed for normal sustain, it would malfunction again. Anyway, moral of the story is...

This pedal is only good for Yamaha's!!! Most of the time.

We bought this pedal for our keyboard awhile back and I don't regret it one bit. We were trying to choose between the FC5 and the FC4, but we decided to go with the FC4 because it would work better on squishy carpet. If you need a keyboard, I highly recommend this one to you. Even though it is a little bit higher, you get your money's worth out of it.
