The Deputy Lunch Box is a seriously cool little amp. Pete Honore's touch makes it sound like a much bigger, pricier amp – think late 60s British tones with a modern edge. It’s perfect for players who want a focused, killer sound in a compact, easy-to-carry package, especially for recording or smaller gigs.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Voice switch alters the preamp's EQ response, offering a darker, more saturated tone alongside the brighter default setting, essentially providing two distinct character profiles.
No, the reverb is not footswitchable, requiring manual adjustment which some players might find inconvenient.
The compact design, while convenient, can slightly reduce headroom compared to a full-sized Victory amp of similar wattage; it leans more towards a mid-gain, crunchy character.
