Tama Double Pedal Iron Cobra, HP200PTW, Power Glide - Double Drum Pedal

Whilst practically all double kicks allow you to adjust the tension and resistance, the resistance on this particular model feels very authentic ... not prohibitive, not lackadaisical ... it's just a very intuitive pedal package that doesn't require you to waste two hours finding that 'ideal balance' that then slips out and resets after five minutes of Slipknot. Pretty much straight out of the box you get a well engineered pedal that hasn't skimped on 'minor' components that actually turn out to be 'major' components because they determine how the other, larger, more elaborate constituent parts operate and respond. Just my personal preference but to my feet it feels more intuitive than a great many other more expensive pedals out there. You can actually feel the respective resistances determined by the tensioners, wherever you place them and however you set them up. I've got a range of DWs, Pearls and other historical TAMA kicks yet these are the ones I always go to, just sheerly based on how they feel and respond. Syncopation just feels natural on this model. Not the lightest and fastest but personally that's not what I'm after. They're consice and well pronounced. Just my opinion, yours may differ, but I'd recommend the HP200PTW hands down for anything from jazz fusion to death metal. If you'd prefer sheer speed and prioritise that over tonal pronunciation and clarity, then maybe go for one of the renowned faster pedals with a different drive system.

Good build quality from tama

My son loves these pedals, easy enough to fit and produce a fast thumping bass sound.
