4,4 / 5,0 | 
Continuing their 50th Anniversary celebrations after new snares and new drum kits, Tama has also released special editions of one of their most iconic products: the Tama Iron Cobra. Few bass drum pedals are as popular and widely known as this one, and the new edition is VERY psychedelic! In addition, Tama also presents colorful editions of their cymbal mate utility and a rug.
Tama Iron Cobra – Coral Swirl and Psychedelic Rainbow
It’s such a shame that outside of you playing it and plenty of envious drummers, few people from the audience will catch a glimpse at these two very colorful 50th-anniversary special editions of the Tama Iron Cobra. Bass drum pedals are just a bit too hidden. But the new finishes Coral Swirl and Psychedelic Rainbow are just so shiny!

There are a total of eight (!) models in this special edition series, all of them part of the HP900 series. For each Coral Swirl and Psychedelic Rainbow, there are two single pedals and two double pedals. There is a Powerglide edition for each of those and a Rolling Glide edition in addition.
All models come with all the perks of the mighty HP900 series: one or two Power-Strike Cobra beaters, the Para-Clamp II Pro for mounting the pedal comfortably onto the bass drum, the Cobra Coil, which is a steel spring under the pedal, and much more. All the single pedals cost 332 GBP each at Thomann*. Furthermore, the four double pedals come in at 699 GBP, also at Thomann*.
A rug and a mate – Tama’s 50th Anniversary offerings
Besides the colorful editions of the Tama Iron Cobra, the Japanese company also offers special editions of their popular Cymbal Mate. The little utility is absolutely indispensable for the touring drummer, as it makes changing or dismounting cymbals a breeze. Tama has released three editions for the special occasion: White*, Orange* and Purple*. Each pack comes with four Cymbal Mates, and a pack runs at 13.90 GBP.
There is also a rug. This drum rug really ties the rehearsal room together. It’s sized at 2m x 1,8m (78 3/4″ x 70 7/8″) and comes in black. This special edition drum rug will set you back 133 GBP at Thomann*.
