Description

The Duchess is a powerful, ultra compact amplifier. It has four valves in the front end, 180-watt power section, reverb and tremolo. This is the original 2020 version before it was updated with Two notes, VRC and headphone output.

The Duchess is all about vintage-style American cleans and British break-up. It’s a single channel amp perfect on a small cab or desktop, or for touring musicians who need a great-sounding, dependable pedal platform amp.

The Story of the V4 amp valves!

The V4 amps have some interesting valves in them, to be specific 3 CV4014’s and 1 EC900. The CV4014’s were made in 1981 in the Mullard factory in England and then stored in a climate-controlled atmosphere deep underground,the depot was part of a cold-war nuclear bunker! They lay there until we decided to design some products from them!

The EC900 were made by E.I (Elektronska Industrija) in the former Yugoslavia under license from Phillips and Mullard, they were produced to an incredibly high standard so much so, we have included a 2-year valve warranty on the V4 amps.

V4 Duchess Update

The Duchess V4 amp was launched in 2020, then in 2022 we updated it with embedded Two notes, headphone output and Valve Response Circuit (VRC) this was timed with the launch of the V4 Copper, V4 Jack and V4 Sheriff.
