Members Skr4ped Posted August 7, 2004 Members Share Posted August 7, 2004 What's your budget? For $270 you can get a Tama Iron Cobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rufuss Posted August 7, 2004 Author Members Share Posted August 7, 2004 Unlimited budget. But, i dont want to waste money. Want the best bang for the buck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ProfessorMurder Posted August 7, 2004 Members Share Posted August 7, 2004 I use tama Iron Cobra single chain rolling glide recomend the Tama Camco double pedal Tough smooth. but if you have an unlimited budget, I would suggest buying another bass drum. The action is much better using seperate pedals and drums. also Pearl Acceleratorlight foot hitter - alluminum Axis pedalsdw are too expensive for the same job.Yamaha copied Tama pedals Any other particular brands you're looking for?

Members SonicDeathMonky Posted August 7, 2004 Members Share Posted August 7, 2004 I'm getting a lot of success out of the Axis Longboards I just purchased, they're a little spendy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rufuss Posted August 10, 2004 Author Members Share Posted August 10, 2004 Well, i'm going to have to dig up a local here w/ a double bass so i can try it out. I went to my drum guy yesterday to look around but, he was closed as ususall. Guy is 72 and really wacky. Anyone ever hear of Mars Scarazzo ? Local ledgend.

Members AtillaTheHungry Posted August 10, 2004 Members Share Posted August 10, 2004 Start your search with Iron Cobras. I love mine to death, and they will probably last until I die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ignited Posted August 10, 2004 Members Share Posted August 10, 2004 Best bang for your buck?? Iron Cobra is the way to go. I think they're great pedals because they're a great balance between sturdiness and smoothness. You could put them through hell and they'll still have that smooth action. And in many cases they come with a free carrying case, interchangeable beaters, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rufuss Posted August 10, 2004 Author Members Share Posted August 10, 2004 Just checked out the Iron Cobra's at MF. looks good. Played a DW-5000 today, Nice action, $300 out the door. Decisions................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the AC cams have more appeal to them because they're sapposed to be "Faster" I find that they slow you down quite a bit. I've tried both, and I highly recommend the Turbo cams.

Members dangeresque Posted August 12, 2004 Members Share Posted August 12, 2004 If you have an unlimited budget, I would go with either the Axis Longboard or the DW 9000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
