Speed Cobra Artist's Response - Rodney Holmes

[Jasaxos]

This guy is like....

And then he plays badass...

Then he's all....

[mcufre]

Is the spring tension bolt any easier to tweat than the iron cobra's one? Im tired of struggling down there trying to get the right spring tension with the irons. One of the reason im trying to upgrade.

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Gavin Harrison plays these now. The fact that he quit Axis to play Tama says a lot.

[KHfan4ever23]

@spacitydrummer4JC I have heard many drummers, famous or not move to Tama from Axis.

[chaoticdw]

高いｗ

[winduapiang]

Fiuhhh... I must admit Speed Cobra Pedal is the best pedal in the world.

at first time, i'm ignored and avoid this pedal. But now, i was blow my Trick Pedal and Demon Drive Pedal... Speed cobra is amazing...

[CrawfordDrummer]

THese are great pedals, I have them and they blow away the DW9000's I replaced

[xjackw13x]

oh yeh it gives u more room to do multiple strokes if you wanted to you know....double strokes....triple strokes....thts all just a triple stroke roll on bass pedals...no big deal right?

[flipadiddle]

the background music is SO FUCKING LAME

[merksperk2]

All of these Speed Cobra responses remind me of those Pro-Active commercials.

[bsm6776]

@merksperk2 hahah true

[pastaboy12]

FINALLY!! the most level headed review of this pedal! im pretty much sold

[websterx9]

1:08 ''I didn't have that total control over it yet'' and by that he means he was not raping the shit out ov it he was just playing 250 BPM ^^ xD!

[lil187troy]

thanks for the correction

[lil187troy]

@lil187troy but the real ones were black though

[kentsmedblom]

his technique is great! :)

[TheDustyspears]

I use DW and PDP pedals. And I can honestly say, I'd rather have a single pedal Iron Cobra than a DW 9000 double pedal.

[thegreatbasher]

@TheDustyspears Well, I am not so sure. But really it's all apples and pears. They are both great and have many amazing features to help us drummers suceed.  Personally I am using the DW9000 and all I can say is wow! Really it is the best and most versatile thing my feet ever played- which isn't nearly enough. Oh well, at least I found my pedal. It's a single by the way.

[Therysinx]

You're the coolest black guy i've ever seen

[Kakarotgoku406]

why would someone dislike this video?

[CrawfordDrummer]

Gavin Harrison Response please!, to show its not just a "metal pedal"

[TheXrythmicXtongue]

@CrawfordDrummer dude, you realize that Rodney Holmes plays jazz right?

[CrawfordDrummer]

@TheXrythmicXtongue Yeah but you wouldn't be able to tell that from this video, and Gavin is a way less heavy player that's my point, dude, he could display the dynamics more than this video does justice to

[pwngrinder]

@CrawfordDrummer Word. I was just about to blow my load on axis longboards when I stumbled across these. Much cheaper. And Gavin made the switch, so they must be good. I bought´em right away :D

[mrboverbro]

he looks scary

[TheMajorTres]

pretty chilll guy. good playing

[JustinPayton]

I love this guy's playing style. Just shows any way to play is possible

[StealthMode90]

"He just walked up and said try this"

[aztasarg]

the parts of the pedal looks very similar to iron cobras :O

Ive never tried this pedal.but its very similar to cobra,with few decoration changes...but i dont know its feel ...but im sure it rocks

[GHProProductions]

I really want to hear what Jason Costa has to say.

[RutboyNiles]

that drumkit looks horrible

[adambell666]

@RutboyNiles how?

[Nootherlove1]

@RutboyNiles Good Thing they don't record the looks of the kit , rather the sound, which is really the most important part about drums- The Sound..LOL

[TheBrodeo3833]

this guy puts me to sleep when he talks than scares me awake when he starts disciplining his kit.

[ThaDeeStylee]

@ItalianAvalanche What an intelligent and insightful way to look at the world!

[lil187troy]

hes just educated are surprised

[lil187troy]

hes just educated are surprised

the original italians were black they were called the etrustians

look it up

[raivok55555]

@lil187troy Wrong. The original Italians wre Etruscans, not etrustians.

[85Aheadstix]

@ItalianAvalanche Yeah i was expecting him to say "yo homes, a'it this pedal be kicking yo bitches, what up?!." two.

[crazykano666]

@85Aheadstix Not all black people are gangsters! BIG shock if your American! :P

[85Aheadstix]

@crazykano666 Come down under!, and see lilly white boys that think they are black!, we call em wiggas, now thats sad!.

My bro thinks hes blacker than tu pac!, its bloody hilarious!.

[bsm6776]

@ItalianAvalanche does that mean anything?

[JedBermudez]

Rodney Holmes is Amazing! Drummer and He has a words of Wisdom for Musicians specially for drummers.

[MrTisen]

A challenge: Anybody recognize that kick mic?

[unclenabe]

[MrTisen]

[birdsmail]

I need it!

[NewOrleans51234]

Is Dave Lombardo still using Tama hardware and pedals?

[TheBuddyGreen]

@NewOrleans51234 yea i dont know if he uses the speed cobras but ive seen a picture of him performing live on his new ddrum kit with iron cobras and tama hardware

[NewOrleans51234]

@TheBuddyGreen Thanks

[rjthegolfer93]

[LPontheDrums]

Send me one.

[minkusink6]

[screamjyser]

His voice is kinda like John Myung's, no?

[screamjyser]

@screamjyser ok maybe not his ovice... but his way of talking and his tone

[BuzzieBee77]

@screamjyser To many words for Myung's...........Hahahaha.

[TheBuddyGreen]

@screamjyser yea it does kinda lol

[JerryBeatFreak]

I want to see mike portnoys thoughts on this pedal.

[Ggevorkyan]

@JerryBeatFreak yea i know, i checked tamas website and it says he uses them now so i want to see how much faster he can be on a new record, because i feel he reached his limit on save me with avenged sevenfold, and a nightmare to remember with dream theater. if he goes any faster than im buying these.

[funkisghost]

@JerryBeatFreak hey man you can check out MP's response to his new speed cobra on tama.com

[jomoorigotto]

@JerryBeatFreak Wish granted.

[f2theorrest]

I bet he got that good solely from that pedal! No practice required!!

[scienceguyJ]

@f2theorrest

That's what Tama wants you to think ;D

[kingvincedrums]

i played on these at my local guitar center. rodney talks about it perfectly. and for the price, why would you buy something else?

[Lenzo001]

@kingvincedrums  yea. i used to use iron cobras. i used those for about 7 years, they got completely worn out.. and i switched over to pearl eliminators. but i'm considering going back to tama. how much are these speed cobras?

[TannerGr8rix]

How much is one of these going to cost? (CAN)

[pompernickels]

@TannerGr8rix at axe music (alberta) its 388.99

[pompernickels]

@TannerGr8rix double kicks tho

[Renegadedrummer27]

@TannerGr8rix It's like $389.99. Saw it today at guitarcenter. Feels good.
