| | | | Diamond Introduces The NITROX |
|
|
January 8, 2008 DA is introducing at The NAMM Show its new Nitrox line. The 100 watt, 2.5 channel amp is the heaviest of Diamond’s product and is a lower cost alternative to its previous high end lines. The Nitrox, said owner Jeff Diamant, “is an absolutely killer amp at a competitive price point, but built to the quality level Diamond has already become known for.”
Featuring Diamond’s signature dual/volume gain design on Channel 2, the Nitrox is ultra-heavy, but punches with precision and focus. The head is paired with a matching, hand-crafted Diamond Nitrox 4x12 with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers that comes wired with Monster speaker cable.

| | | | Diamond Introduces The SPITFIRE II |
|
|
January 8, 2008 As a companion to Diamond’s 1 channel classically styled Spitfire amp, DA is introducing its 2 channel companion to the Spitfire. Featuring Diamonds signature dual volume/gain on Channel 2 and a half-power switch (also on the Spitfire), the new Spitfire II combines vintage, but updated, tone with modern features like a half power switch, tube-buffered effects loop, Diamond’s signature Low Focus and Effect Return/Master Volume control. To mirror its mechanics, the Spitfire II also combines vintage with modern styling.
Along with the Spitfire II, Diamond has restyled its entire Spitfire line to match the styling of the Spitfire II. All Spitfire heads are available tan grille on black or tan grille on matching tan head shell. The Spitfire cabinet will come black with a black and tan 2-tone basket weave grille and contains 4 Celestion Vintage 30’s wired with Monster speaker cable.

| | | | SPEC OP C - New Styling for the Spec Op Line |
|
|
January 8, 2008 New for ’08 is Diamond’s more classically styled Spec Op C. The new styling eliminates the blue LED’s and adds a tolex wrapped front panel with inset perforated grille. The amp will not change in its heralded tone or features/versatility but it does provide an alternate unique look for guitarists who want a classic, but updated look. The Spec Op C 4x12 will feature the same speaker configuration, but with a classic black grille cloth face.
