Diamond 'Silver and Gold' US tourbox

Hi everyone! Thought we'd send out a couple of pedals in a US tourbox - a 'silver' Memory Lane Jr (with the new variable delay '4th' mode), and a 'gold' Cornerstone drive. We'd love to get your feedback and comments / posts on these, and audio or video clips would be greatly appreciated. Info on which guitar / amp setups the pedals were tested is also very helpful background.

Typical tourbox rules:

1. Members (with at least 200 posts on TGP or a supporting member) can sign up by sending me a PM. Please include your name and shipping address in the PM. This particular tourbox is limited to those in the US to in order to keep shipping costs down, if there is sufficient interest we may set up a second international/EU tourbox.

2. Each person receiving the tourbox has a 7 day period to try out the gear, after which the next person on the tourbox itinerary should be contacted to arrange delivery. That itinerary list will be maintained in this thread. Pedals must be shipped with tracking info and delivery confirmation, which must sent to both the person at the next destination and myself.

3. If there is a problem with any pedal, including shipping issues, please contact me immediately so we can work to resolve the issue.

Thanks in advance for participating, looking forward to your comments!

Cheers,

Michael Knappe

Thanks! Just to clarify, each participant is responsible for shipping it to the next member on the list, apologies if that wasn't clear.

Cheers,

For anyone interested, I recently posted 3 demos of these pedals to YouTube. Link in sig.

And thanks again to the Diamond crew for letting me spend some time with these. Really appreciate it.
