Diamond Phantom 100w Valve Head

About This Product

The Phantom, a sister to the Spec Op, features the same quality construction with a more traditional high gain structure – the saturation you want in more traditional voicing with unparalleled, resonant lows, plenty of mids and tons of gain! It features a clean channel and two distinct high gain settings in Channel 2.

Channel 2 also features DA’s signature dual volume/gain design. This feature gives the player the option of having two gain settings, say for a rhythm and lead tone, or more gain for chunky heavy gain-style rhythms and less gain for more precision and clarity when playing more staccato style passages.

Most important to the player, the Phantom features DA’s signature “low focus” switch on the rear panel. The low focus switch provides 3 positions – low, mid, high. Moving from low to high, the player gets to focus the low end, tailored to his/her needs, with low end increasing relative to the highs allowing for more low end with more focus. Dial up or down to the desired low end structure, increasing lows relative to highs without losing tight low-end response not customary in today’s market.

The Phantom also features a real, correctly-designed effects loop. You don't need a foot switch; you don't have to push a button. Just plug a cable into the effects send and the loop activates. The loop is tube buffered and will not affect your tone.

The front panel features a master volume, which reads E. Return (effects return). When the loop is on, the E. Return knob acts as the amp's overall master - turn this knob up or down to increase or decrease the amps overall volume. When the loop is off, each channel's volume control acts as that channel's master volume.

The head features a hexagon pattern perforated metal grille made in 16-guage steel with a unique silver vein finish, and an accompanying black grille on the back of the exact shape and dimension, finished in black powder coating. Even the knobs are metal for look and feel. LED's are mounted in the box to give this head its distinctive green glow. Even the logo is stainless steel. Corner irons are included on every corner to add to the strength and stability of the box.
