Diamondhead - Multistage Distortion + Boost
Seymour Duncan's Diamondhead Distortion Boost Pedal is a sonic time machine, transporting players back to the golden age of heavy metal. This meticulously crafted pedal captures the legendary tones that defined the genre, from Judas Priest's scorching leads to Ozzy's earth-shaking crunch. At its heart, the Diamondhead delivers a multistage distortion that ranges from raw, medium-gain grit to soaring, high-gain harmonics. Three active EQ controls allow you to sculpt the sound with surgical precision, taming the low end, accentuating the midrange punch, and adding sizzling top-end sparkle. But the Diamondhead is more than just a distortion pedal – it also features a powerful boost circuit, which can be used to push an amp into glorious, saturated overdrive or to kick your leads into the stratosphere. The SAT switch, inspired by Seymour Duncan's renowned 805 Overdrive, adds a 24dB pre-gain boost that tightens up the low end for an even more aggressive attack. Whether you're running the Diamondhead into a clean pedal platform or the front end of an overdriven tube amp, this versatile powerhouse will unlock the iconic tones that defined a generation of rock gods. It's a must-have for any guitarist seeking to channel the unbridled spirit and raw power of classic heavy metal.
