The LUNCHBOX
Acoustic
is ZT’s first two-channel amp, with perfect features and tone
for the acoustic musician and vocalist. Featuring specially voiced, independent Instrument
and Microphone channels, flexible signal I/O, and high-output capability, the easily portable
LUNCHBOX
Acoustic
is truly a performer’s best friend.
Like all ZT products, The LUNCHBOX
Acoustic
is simple and intuitive enough to allow anyone
to plug and play without much effort. However, reading this document can help you get the most
from your amp, and deliver the best to your audience.
Design Philosophy:
The LUNCHBOX
Acoustic
is built on the platform of ZT’s original LUNCHBOX amp. By utilizing
proprietary technology and taking a fresh approach to design, ZT has created another powerful
tool for the performing musician, this time with sound and features specifically suited for acoustic
instrument players and vocalists.
ZT products are the result of many years of study into the sound, feel and science of the world’s
best musical instrument amplifiers. Our goal was not to clone or “model” any particular product.
Rather, we have tried to understand, in a methodical way, what technical factors give an amp
great tone, flexibility and playability. As a group of experienced audio scientists and passionate
musicians, we set out to learn what makes a classic amp survive for generations, giving artists
of many styles and genres a consistently great playing experience over the years. ZT’s research
investigation was “clean slate.” We didn’t assume we knew any secret, magic formula; we set
our own techno-biases aside. Likewise, we did not assume that conventional wisdom is always
all that wise.
What we found is that guitar amps are fantastically complex systems. Many aspects of the
overall product design interact with one another under real-world playing conditions. Sections
of the electrical circuit influence each other, the electrical system interacts with the acoustical
system, etc. Some of these interactions are well known to amp aficionados and designers.
Others have been underrated, or overlooked entirely. Thus, we soon came to realize that guitar
amps have plenty of mysteries to reveal, and plenty of room for improvement in areas that
musicians would appreciate.
Eventually, ZT started collecting real, practical insight into what makes great amps tick.
In our view, optimization between electrical, acoustical and mechanical subsystems is the
key to bringing more tone, power, smaller size, and lower costs into the picture. By applying
sophisticated technical understanding to overcome limitations that have previously been
considered facts of life, ZT is able to re-write some of the rules while working in complete
harmony with more traditional approaches. We believe it is time to re-think the fundamental
design of the guitar amp, bringing in advanced audio technology without losing the wonderful
benefits of proven classics.
