Thick saturated fuzz with amazing amounts of low-end the Fireburst.
To add to its utility, we put in a unique, footswitchable mid-boost eq and pre/post gain circuit that snaps the fuzz into focus and turns the Fireburst into a tightly focused distortion pedal. The fuzz and distortion gain and mid-boost eq circuits are all discrete component, while we use an audiophile grade opamp for an active Baxandall bass/treble control. The bass and treble controls act independently at extended frequency extremes (<150 Hz and > 3 kHz), allowing for some very interesting post-distortion tonal shaping.
Click here for a sample MP3 clip of the Diamond Fireburst with mid-boost off. The guitar used is a Gibson Explorer (bridge), into the fireburst, and out to a Dr. Z Carmen Ghia + 1ÌÑ12 Mesa recto cab. The sample starts with no effect and then switches to an effect.
