Diamond Pedals

[Jeff Flowerday]

Since I basically started paying attention to this Canadian manufacturer yesterday. What's everyone got and how are they liking them?

had a drive. liked it quite a bit but sold it for whatever reason. i like more transparency.

i have the compressor as well and it's very impressive once you take the time to play with the internal settings and see what works best.

love the memory lane, after trying it i got rid of my memory man....2 in fact, 1 on my small pedal board and 1 in my rack (with a gcx, ground control etc). the second one i bought direct from them with a few mods to it and they were fabulous to deal with and turned it around really quick. nice to deal with a good people, and they are canadian to boot, although a friend in the US hipped me to them funny enough....

I live a short busride away from where they make these pedals. Im heading over there sometime in the near future.

I played the firebird (or burst or something) and really liked it. like a big muff but with way more range and control. the drive was nice too as basically a clean boost, but it was very subtle

I have the Memory Lane analog delay and Fireburst distortion/fuzz pedals.
I absolutely love them ... Great sound, top notch build quality and quite unique in design and sound.
I hate it when I open up a booteek pedal that I just paid major $$$ for and it looks like something I put together myself ... Diamond pedals look absolutely amazing inside ... the PCB in the fireburst is red to match the casing color ... even the screws are painted red ... that is the atention to detail that (in my mind) justifies the price and shows how much thought, time and effort a builder has put into his work ... and the fact that they sound amazing ... ;)
I went through quite a few "dirt" pedals before I tried the Fireburst, the only regret I have is not trying the Fireburst first, would have saved myself a lot of $$$, time and frustration.
Same with the Memory Lane, that IS the delay I've been looking for since I started playing.

I got the compressor a couple of weeks ago and really like it a lot. Its not a really heavy compression - more like a stuidio compressor but it is possible to get some chicken picken tones out of it. It is also really quiet. I leave it on almost all the time now and just adjust the amount of compression as needed. It actually adds a bit of mojo to my tone rather than robbing it.

I'd love to try out the J-drive next.
