Since it's big box predecessor sports high prices on the used market, I'm glad to see this wonderful and wiggly vibrato return in a smaller format. I'm excited to say that this Vibrato doesn't disappoint. It sounds so blissfully warm, wavy and dreamy, like a beautiful blanket of nostalgia, that you just want to stay under forever. It's one of the most musical vibratos out there.

I'm lucky enough to own the original one. Desert island pedal for me. I hear they kept the sound on the reissue. Beautiful sounding pedal.

Awesome to hear that you think they nailed the sound of the original. I've never played the OG big box, so I wouldn't know. But what I do know, is that this reissue version here sounds absolutely phenomenal!

I’ve got an original and this one is a little better. I collect pitch Vibrato pedals and this is the very best one I’ve ever had.

Cool! Have you tried the subdecay Siren? I find it pretty unique

@starshineraiser6729 Ай бұрын

No but I’m checking it out asap. I did land my dream pedal and it’s the very best pedal I’ve owned, a Tefi - Golden Era. The vibrato on that is out of this world. But still, the Diamond MK2 and Boss - CE2w, even the Boss VB2w, these are pedals I could never be without.

I was so gutted when the OG was discontinued. Imo the best Vibrato pedal ever made

Totally understand now why the OG got so much hype. This new reissue sounds absolutely divine

Vibrato feels like fuzz in that it’s something I I don’t feel “whole” playing without it

The synth bits took the cake

@thepedalzone Ай бұрын

Thanks! Now I want cake 🎂😹 Happy you enjoyed the synth example. Always fun to mess around with pitch modulation on synth, and this one bends and moves in all the right nostalgic ways

Sounds awesome, if it had lfo options including random I would probably be selling something to get it.

@compucorder64 2 ай бұрын

It's really nice. Very lush chorus. But, my desert island choice for pitch instability would be the Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water, because I like the fact the vibrato isn't predictably periodic. similar with Strymon Magneto and it's Flutter etc... and it's more subtle. But, then again, they don't do a Chorus like this.

Been waiting for this since SGFX brought back Diamond. The smaller form factor and top-mounted jacks are a welcome innovation. Slightly nervous about the prospect of this "Compandor Circuit" but it won't stop me from ordering one immediately.

@thepedalzone Ай бұрын

The only feedback I've been getting from people who've played the original, is that the new one sounds even better. So I don't think you have anything to fear. It's awesome!

@@thepedalzone I haven't had the chance to A/B it against my original, but having integrated the new one into my rig and taken it for a spin with the full band, it's fantastic! Definitely feels a little cleaner and clearer, while still retaining the ability to get the darker, grittier tones of the original. Love the ability to hold down the footswitch and double up the rate, too. I never have enough room on my board for EXP pedals so I used to keep the rate on my original cranked, which limited its overall utility. Now I can get a slower, more broadly useful rate out of it without sacrificing the freak-out rate for certain song sections. Diamond knocked this out of the park!

Happy you like it! It’s a stellar pedal. This thing sounds great on whatever instrument you throw at it, so if your main instrument is something else than the guitar, then give it a go there. I think this pedal sounds amazing on synths. Really good on bass as well actually
