Product Description
Victory have taken all the features of the original Deputy and reimagined them in the renowned Victory Lunchbox format. Built in their UK factory with exceptional craftsmanship and premium components, the Deputy Lunchbox retains the full functionality of the Deputy Compact Head while offering a refined, contemporary appeal.
Powered by 2 x EL86 valves, the Deputy Lunchbox delivers 25 watts of rich, dynamic Victory valve tone—compact, powerful, and built for the modern player.
Key Features
- Single Channel Design - The Deputy’s single channel effortlessly spans from 60’s British Clean to 70’s Classic Rock with a single gain control. This amp is straightforward and perfect for seamlessly transitioning your guitar’s volume from clean to crunch to lead gain. With 25 Watts of power, you’ll enjoy ample clean headroom.
- Three-Position Voice Switch - The Deputy features a three-position Voice switch designed to provide maximum versatility by adding a bit of extra gain. In Position 1 (top), you get the lowest gain setting. In Position 2 (middle), you enjoy a maximum of +6dB gain, influenced by the Gain settings on the amp. Position 3 adds upper mid frequencies and a treble boost to Voice 2.
- Simple, Yet Powerful EQ - The Deputy has a simple three band EQ that is in-line with the amp’s simple, yet versatile aesthetics and sound.
- Bright Switch - The bright control is a simple switch to add some top end, allowing you to shape the sound of whatever you use before the amp exactly the way you want it.
- Series Effects Loop - A series effects loop is available for effects fans. It’s completely out of the circuit when bypassed.
- External Bias Test Points - No need to fiddle about inside when you change output valves. The Deputy will be fitted with EL86s as standard but can be biased to use EL84’s too.
Housed in Victory’s signature rugged steel chassis, this single-channel amplifier is remarkably versatile. Its front panel features a Bright switch, a three-way Voice switch, full EQ controls, Gain, Master Volume, and an FX loop, allowing for precise tonal shaping. The built-in shimmering Reverb enhances everything from subtle ambience to fully immersive soundscapes.
Award-Winning Simplicity
Since the launch of the original Deputy Compact Head in January 2024, this collaboration between Victory and Peter Honore (Danish Pete) has gained a lot of attention to it’s no frills, pure tone-in-a-box nature including Guitarist Magazine’s ‘Choice’ and Premier Guitar’s ‘Premier Gear’ awards.
