Jeff Diamant has a diverse background to say the least. First off, Jeff is most known for founding not one, but two major players in the musical equipment manufacturing business. First, Jeff founded Diamond Amplification, a leading manufacturer of high-end, American made guitar amplifiers and speaker cabinets (
www.diamondamplification.com). Diamond shapes the guitar tone for some of the world’s leading musicians and bands such as 311, Kid Rock, Saliva, Bob Rock (Producer – Metallica, Motley Crue, etc), Rob Cavallo (Producer – Green Day, Kid Rock, etc), John Corabi, Sevendust, the Wailers and the list goes on.
Through Diamond, Jeff formed a relationship with legendary guitar builder/designer Dean Zelinsky, who founded Dean Guitars. After leaving Dean Guitars, Dean Z. and Jeff (with partner Terry Martin) founded DBZ Guitars (www.dbzguitars.com). Dean and Jeff are manufacturing some of the worlds finest (and coolest) guitars that are being sold around the world!
