Deep State

Gain sets drive intensity, Treble shapes the top end from dark to bright, and Output sets level into the amp. The diode change keeps the Conspiracy Theory gain structure while altering how the circuit clips, so dynamics and guitar volume still clean up the drive in the same way as the parent design.

Only 550 units were made. Each enclosure is numbered and signed on the inside by Joe Bonamassa, and the run was sold exclusively through Bonamassa's Reverb store. The pedal uses the compact Way Huge Smalls chassis shared with the standard Conspiracy Theory.

Released on 1 August 2024 as a limited collaboration between Way Huge and Joe Bonamassa.
