Ranging from 80's style gain to all out ferocity, 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) that are accessible to him on the fly. 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 focuses the low end relative to the mids and highs as well as creates an evenness across all the strings to the high E is not overrung by the low E. The Phantom also features a real, correctly-designed effects loop. 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. Like all current and future Diamond Amplification products, the Phantom features the highest quality components and construction. The Phantom uses 6 12AX7 preamp tubes and 4 Svetlana "Winged C" EL34's for its power stage. Each part was personally spec'd and tested by us to ensure maximum performance and reliability, from the transformers to the switches and knobs. All its channels are foot-switchable from the Phantom's footswitch (connected with a stereo cable).
