I never played the cobra but from what i've seen on reviews and stuff like that its not as adjustable as a dw or an eliminator.i have an eliminator which to me epitomizes the meaning of adjustability(6 different cams???come on...!!!).Anyway that's just my opinion...Adjustability is the number one quality i look for in a pedal.Because,you know,maybe in two years you'll decide to change your technique,who knows?You dont wanna be out shopping again right?Although good technique means you should be able to play at least effective in any pedal...Any input from dw and cobra owners?
