 TAMA Iron Cobra 200Everyone has different preferences, and we hope our frank reviews will make your decision easier. First, we will take a look at the TAMA Iron Cobra 200.

 Tama HP600DTW Iron Cobra 600The challenger is the Tama HP600DTW Iron Cobra 600. As any experienced drummer can tell you, Tama has built up an excellent reputation over the past 20 years for producing some of the best pieces of drumming gear on the market. And this product is no exception.


But what about the Tama HP600DTW Iron Cobra 600

It offers a lot of options in terms of adjustability. You can easily set the action to suit your preferred playing style. Yes, it might not offer as many options as a premium product, but then, you've got to keep in mind how cheap this double bass pedal is. And it still includes some high-grade components. For example, it's got a 'Duo Glide' cam that allows you to select the sweet spot between the rolling glide and power glide sprocket. That means that you can either favor smooth consistency or alter it for speed and power.

WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT

  If you're looking for a bargain, then you can't go wrong with this product. It's not designed for professional performance but instead would make a good entry-level choice for a drummer who wants to experiment with this piece of equipment without wanting to spend the big bucks. Typically for Cobra, it delivers good usability too.

We like the accurate motion, good recoil, and zero lag that this product offers. The Duo Glide component is an excellent feature too. It takes a little while to get the pedals adjusted to your needs, but once you have, then you'll be set for the long-term, as this product is built to last.
