Victory V4 The Kraken Guitar Amp
THE KRAKEN BY VICTORY IN PEDAL FORM WITH IR LOADER BY TWO NOTES BUILT IN!
"Honey, I shrunk the amp", that must have been a regular joke in Victory's workshop during the process behind this V4 line. With this extremely compact V4 version of the Kraken you have access to both Gain channels of its big brother; both the looser, more vintage channel and the sleek, modern channel are present. And that in backpack format! How do they do it, you might think. Well, for starters, the V4 Kraken features a tube preamp section. For amplification there is a 180 Watt transistor output stage that, thanks to the Valve-Response Circuit (VRC), has the same impact and feel as the resonance function on full tube amps. Thanks to this output stage, you can connect the V4 to a traditional guitar cabinet, but you can also output the signal directly thanks to the built-in Two-Notes Cabinet Simulation technology. Whatever situation you end up in, the V4 always has the right connection options. Once connected, you have plenty of control over your sound thanks to the interactive EQ, reverb and gain. You can switch between the two gain channels with the Footswitch. How cool!
