Across genres and generations, the sound of a half

standard for rock tones. From the classic bands of the
seventies, to the pioneering metal tones of the eighties, the combination of tube heads and drive pedals
has created some of the most iconic guitar tones of
all time. Diamondhead aims to capture the power and
versatility of that quintessential rig in a package that
will find a space on any pedalboard.
