Sharing this from the Fediverse. Victory Amps found that there were no guitar amps for blind people, so they did their research and changed it.

victoryampsuk "Being born blind, when I discovered music 14 years ago, playing guitar was the one time I didn't feel blind... Every time I had to ask someone to read the knobs on my amp, it was a reminder. When I received this amplifier, a whole new world of freedom opened for me." - Anthony Ferraro In November 2025, Anthony reached out to try one of our Duchess MKII combos. What he didn't know was that a simple question had already sparked a quiet mission inside the Victory factory: What if his amp didn't just work for him... what if it was built for him? We researched accessibility in musical equipment and were shocked by how little existed - especially in guitar amplification. So we learned braille standards, spacing rules and dot heights, developed a custom embossing process, and rebuilt the front and rear panels of the Duchess MKII V40 so every control could be understood by touch alone - without compromising tone, feel or design. We shipped it to Anthony as a complete surprise, with a braille letter explaining what we'd done. His reaction moved us - and i, within 24 hours, it moved millions of you around the world. Today we're proud to announce that braille panel options are now available on any Victory amplifier, worldwide, at no extra cost. A portion of every sale will be donated to a UK registered blind charity chosen by Anthony. This started with one quitarist.
