  • Greg Djerrahian from SolidGoldFX has relaunched Diamond Pedals. We were thrilled when we learned this and when we received the new pedals from him! On today's live, Josh is going to talk about why he wanted to relaunch this classic line.

    Excited about the relaunch. Also need to say that Aimish Wallace, the previous operations director at Diamond, was amazing. Custom colors, custom mods, if there was something you wanted and it could fit in the pedal, Aimish would make it happen. Also, my son lost his entire pedalboard, as well as guitar and amp, in a flood. Reached out to all the builders not expecting much. Aimish was the only one that said send the pedal in and we’ll rebuild it. Great company, great guy. Glad someone is taking over and keeping that company going.

    I've always loved Diamond and I don't understand why they ever went out of business. The Memory Lane was an astonishing delay with a very unique sound, and the Boost EQ is one of my favorite studio pieces for tweaking the perfect guitar sound.

    I am a big fan of SolidgoldFX. They are some of the nicest people out there. Do a special on their stuff too. The early design are so beautiful.

    Love my memory lane jr.. I had no plans to get rid of it ever, but now I want to swap it for this new smaller footprint version, it sounds just as good with really cool added features..
    Congrats to SolidGoldFX (great company) for bringing back Diamond's legacy! Two of the best Canadian pedal companies right there.
    Speaking of which.. not the first time I mention this, but I'd love to see a Fairfield Circuitry feature on this channel 👀

    I've got an Oblivion, a Lysis and a 76 Plus, three of the best, most versatile pedals I own. They kill. The 76 is in my top 3 fuzzes out of 73 or so. It may very well be #1. Solid fucking gold.

    I know this video is about the Diamond relaunch, but just came to say Greg is such a good dude! Everyone should go grab a SGFX pedal asap! I only have about 40 of them! And now I'm aiming to grab some of the Diamond line! I'm beyond stoked for this! I'm a little torn on the Drive or Memory Lane for my first...can't wait to see whats next from both companies!

    • @michaelsnydermusic

      That compressor is the way to go. That thing is a tone machine. I’ve never seen a compressor pedal like it.

  • @adamcoe
    @adamcoe Год назад +1

    I've had a Quantum Leap on my board for quite some time, and I happened to run into Michael at a gig randomly about a month ago when he spotted it. Many years ago when I worked at a mom and pop music store, we were a dealer in the early days and I loved being able to recommend their stuff. Super stoked to see someone has resurrected them!

  • @weschilton
    @weschilton Год назад

    I am very happy to see Diamond back on the market. I understand the need for change to some designs due to parts issues. I have in regular use the original big box Memory Lane, Halo, J Drive and both the original Comp and the Jr Comp. I am looking forward to a release of the Vibrato and hope it has not changed in tone from the original. I’ve not ever felt that the original Diamond comp had an obvious snap. As it was optical it sounded much more like an LA-2A than a snappy comp. good on Greg and his team for bringing the brand back

    I looovveee Diamond so much. I was super bummed out when they announced they were closing. I couldn’t see why. It does cost a lot more building in Canada but still. Anyways I’m super stoked they are back! I might be a little biased, being Canadian and all ;)

    Diamond pedals have always been so cool to me. I've never owned one though. They look very simple but look great, and sound great. Not sure why I've never had one

  • @billbrayley6836
    @billbrayley6836 Год назад

    I love my Diamond pedals! I have a Comp JR and a Nine Zero Two. My only wish is that Solid Gold might have had a good affordable solution for an issue I had. Both pedals still work stellarly however, the clearcoat (with lettering) flaked off my 902 very quickly and I am alas, left with a ghostly no name Diamond pedal. I was surprised not being a hard guy on gear and was told it was a failing of their coatings process. I couldn’t pursue Solid Gold’s repair offer as it would have cost me half my original purchase price to ship return and pay to have it redone. Again, I still LOVE my 902…. Just wish it still flew that Diamond flag for all to see! That aside, stoked to see that the Diamond line will live on!

  • @joeschlicht
    @joeschlicht Год назад

    Glad to see the line brought back, but I kinda liked that they were sort of under the radar and not the typical choice. I still have my original Drive pedal with the lead boost. It's kind of scratchy right now, needs cleaning. I'm not using it (in favor of an old 2 knob Hotcake with my Vox amps). But I'll clean up the pots and use it again. Sounded great through my Tweed Deluxe style amp. Of the current line I am most interested in that Tremolo pedal if I can use it to retire my Tremodillo that alters my tone, and is battery only with stripped out screws making the battery change a real pain. I just bought a Lehle parallel SW to use with the Tremodillo to combat the tone and volume change. It's not wired up yet, tempting to just use the Dimamond and put the Tremodillo in the archive. That would solve the inconvenience and free up precious pedal board real estate.
    Would love to try the Memory Lane as well. I literally just bought a Carbon Copy and it's OK, but I have a Memory Man 550 TT that I do like a lot. I know I would prefer the Memory Lane over the Carbon Copy, too bad this announcement didn't come _last_ week, lol

    Love Solid Gold have a Surf Rider lV and a Commodore on one of my boards right now. To me the Surf Rider is hands down the best spring style Reverb on the market.

    • @adamnesbitt11
      @adamnesbitt11 Год назад +1

      Yeah. You could make a case for the True Spring/Ventris or something like the Topanga but the Surf Rider just sounds great. Source Audio could put on a clinic on realism but the Surf Rider has character.

  • @JacobH93

    It’s cool to see these back! I love my diamond compressor. Maybe I should have sold it back when Diamond ceased production. I could have made some money and then gotten one of these 😂 I couldn’t risk losing it though I love that pedal!

    I thought diamond went out of business? I don't live far from where they are made and heard last year the closed shop. I have an early compressor made by them. Hasn't left my board in well over 10 years
