Diamond Tremolo Return of the O.G.

Tremolo has been a staple effect since the 60’s. Now it’s time to welcome it to the 21st century. Don’t let your preconceptions fool you, this is not your average trem.

The new Diamond TREMOLO takes what it means to be a tremolo and pushes it well beyond the limits. We started with 11 rhythm control positions, and 3 different modes, but then decided to introduce a secondary tremolo circuit based around a FET that provides a sharp edge, completely killed, tremolo effect. With the way this circuit chops your signal, we’ve coined it the CHOPPER. With all of this, the updated Diamond Tremolo will be your go-to tone warping machine.

Main Features
• Tremolo Effects Pedal
• Smooth Optical Amp Style Tremolo plus Chopper
• Uses a Custom US made Opto-Isolator and Burr Brown ICs
• 11 position Rhythm control loaded with accents, patterns and Dicer modes.
• Tap Tempo with Sub-divisions via dedicated footswitch
• Chopper mode
• Insta-Chopper feature
• Doubler feature allows for instant doubling of the delay tempo
• 3 Tremolo Wave shapes
• Sine – smooth and even
• Shark-fin: asymmetric

• Geezer Mode: mimics classic Diamond Tremolo operation without secondary footswitch functions
• Momentary/Latching Mode: offers momentary/latching switching for both Insta-Chop and Doubler Features
• Top-mounted jacks and soft touch relay switching
• Hand-made in Montreal, Canada
• Powered by a regular 9V DC PSU (centre -, 2,1 mm, ~21 mA current draw)

Tremolos are the kind of pedal that once you turn it on, you never go back.

The Diamond Tremolo offers both warm, natural vintage amp-style optical tremolo with sine, shark tooth and square waveforms as well as a precise FET Chopper with momentary Dicer function. But like we said above, we’ve introduced the effect to the modern world by way of creating 3 distinct modes that introduce entirely new feature sets and in turn ways of operating the pedal.

Small but mighty. Loaded yet user friendly. The Tremolo offers Tap Tempo with subdivisions, 11 position Rhythm control, Insta-Chop, momentary or latching speed Doubler, and more.

For the modern pedal-user’s needs. Space saving design, without any loss of quality. All analog, Burr-Brown audio path with microprocessor control. Complete with top-mounted jacks and relay based true bypass switching.

Yeah...all of this in a standard pedalboard friendly enclosure. This ain’t your Dad’s tremolo. We turned it into a compact powerhouse full of sonic exploring capabilities. Dive in, and get lost.

Diamond Pedals Innovating Sonic Excellence Originally founded by Michael Knappe in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in 2003 Diamond Pedals had a goal to create devices that improve the sound quality of the modern guitar player, while maintaining familiar product usability. In 2005, a new era of innovation in the pedal industry was ushered in. That was the year that Diamond introduced their now legendary Compressor and the game-changing Memory Lane; the world-first all analog tap-tempo Delay.

The next few years saw many innovative Diamond designs being brought to the market and many now beloved industry staples would leave the brand’s workbenches. However, in 2020 and right in the midst of the global pandemic, Diamond Pedals was sadly forced to shut down their operations.

Seeking to assist their fellow Canadian brand, SolidGoldFX mastermind Greg Djerrahian reached out to see if he could help out, whether that be assisting with manufacturing, producing parts or other elements of pedal production as they wanted to do whatever it could to “keep this pedal institution alive.” One thing led to another and SolidGoldFX ended up acquiring the Diamond Pedals brand and designs in 2021.

After two long years of endless research, development and tinkering with Diamond’s original and long admired pedal circuits, Greg and his team have launched 5 new devices, all building on the original designs of Diamond’s most iconic flagship pedals. Reborn, Diamond Pedals will continue the development of sonically excellent and inspiringly innovative effects, with all design and manufacturing now happening in their fully equipped facility located in Montreal, Canada.
