I bought a v40 deluxe paired with a 2 x 12 matching can after watching andertons and Chris buck videos. Well it turned out the best amp I ever owned.. and I had for few years a Hiwatt dr103 1974 with Mullard valves. I just love the clean of this white dutchess .

Can you get a decent break up tone on the lowest wattage for home use?

@mortonwilson795 Год назад

I've gone a bit sour on this brand - my Copper Pedal has just stopped working after a year of safe, quiet home use, the Lee Anderton thing - no big deal for me but clearly it's brought the dogs out - the 50/50 'I have a problem' vs 'my holy grail' comments on the Victory FB page but really - THE PRICE! Are they really worth what they are charging compared to other quality brands? I'm all for boutique made in UK stuff but I'm frankly getting a bit leery of this brand - lotsa hype (esp from some RU-vidrs) but questionable longterm validation form actual owners.

@MikeHenrick1 8 месяцев назад

I really like the sound of this. But Amp X would do this plus all Amps you can imagine plus effects etc I could sell everything, hellix, fender amp, everything. ?

@poesybeat Год назад

I run my V40 at half power through a 1x12 Creamback. Fantastic amp. Perfect pedal platform.

@timothyengel3446 10 месяцев назад

I run mine the exact same way... Into a Peavey 112 with a celestion creamback... Here's a suggestion if you're not already doing it...gain stacking... I'm pushing a black box overdrive into a J Rocket Animal, the sparkle in the breakup and saturation is incredible going into the V40 and celestion creamback.

@poesybeat 10 месяцев назад

Totally. A couple of your favorite drives in front of it - so good.

@DaringDan Год назад

This amp, the Matchless HC30, and the Bad Cat Cub really stood out to me when I bought Tonex and was checking out amps I'd never used. The PRS HNDRX 20 is also a really nice amp.

@chrisjs6123 Год назад

I had the V40 deluxe. Beautifully made and no arguments it’s a great amp. I found it a bit lacking in character. Sold it for an Achilles hand wired Princeton clone which I much prefer.

@TheComedyGuitarGuy 11 месяцев назад

Because they’re great. There are 9 ‘owners’ of Victory and that has never been hidden. If I owned an amp brand, you could bet my balls id like what they did too 😂😂

@DrProgNerd Год назад

I bought a V40 shortly after I bought a V30 (it was a yin/yang thing). I found it to be pretty unremarkable. It wasn't bad ....just ....meh. I returned it after a couple of days. It's pretty anemic. Really the only plus was that it's tiny package for a 6L6 amp. The Two Rock Studio Pro 35 is a much better option than this. That said, you make it sound great. Great playing as always.

@dreadnotpop Год назад

When you demo the different amps is your guitar volume knob turned all the way up? This makes a huge difference in how the sounds are portrayed.

@mattg1094 Год назад

Is it good for stereo /pedal platform Looking for ultimate edgy clean ambience

@aapddd Год назад

That’s exactly what this amp is made for. Not sure about stereo though.

@MikeHenrick1 8 месяцев назад

Well I’ve just discovered why all the jokes I didn’t know that Lee was co owner etc of so many companies lol. So John is your honest opinion the amps good, I’m waiting for amp x to come out before I make any decisions. I want stereo. Like the Dumble type sound, so I’d use two heads and cabs etc.

@johnnathancordy 8 месяцев назад

Umm except of course for their latest handwired things that are nearly £5k I don't think the dumble/two rock sound has been part of their Arsenal. I'd probably look at the VHT D50 or a Ceriatone for that sort of thing? The Amp X will arrive one day, I'm almost sure of it!!

@BobbyCulpepper.srv3fender Год назад

i think i would go with the Revv G20, it was the two notes direct out on it which can come in handy

@therangersinger Год назад

I actually preferred the clean channel on the V30 over the V40. I'm going to take it one step further...I actually disliked the cleans on the V40. It had zero character. But....when I had both of those amps playing in stereo...it was freaking epic.

@johnnathancordy Год назад

Interesting - from what I've heard of other V30 demos it didn't really seem to cover the sort of territory I'm into personally but obviously demos can be tricky!

@billgreen3629 Год назад

Why do you like the V30? Agreed about the V40. I’ve heard the V140 is better. Would love to try a V30.

@therangersinger Год назад

@@billgreen3629 I loved the texture of the gain on the lead channel. Sounded great with singlecoils or humbuckers. The overdrive channel was nicely compressed and the cleans where big. That amp took pedals better than the V40. Fx loop was very clear. And the damn amp was loud as Hell 🤣. Honestly it just ticked all the boxes. That was the first amp that I truly loved the amps gain.

@WeskerDyszel Год назад

I’ve got one of the 1x12 victory v40 deluxe combos, don’t see many of em about, weighs a ton with that big fat spring tank and the valve driven output trem. Solid pine cab too, I think. Been trying to sell it on for years now

@philh27 Год назад

I had a V40 for several months 2017/18. It was a terrific pedal platform and did work well as part of a stereo set up. However, I found it to be a very dark sounding amp. I was surprised to see your tone settings. Invariably I had the bass off and the treble cranked. Eventually this niggle defeated me and I sold it. Perhaps later versions have been voiced differently?

@timothyengel3446 10 месяцев назад

You probably should have kept it and tried a different speaker.... Speakers make a big difference. I'm running mine into a celestion creamback... But if you're looking for a brighter tone you might try the celestian gold or the celestion neo creamback.

@89ji76 Год назад

Really great from a house brand amp!

@fese6513 8 месяцев назад

If you like modern metal tones, try it with a Friedman BE OD pedal in front and V30 speakers. It will melt your face off. Im using a BE OD clone with a TS808 in front.

@IRIDEHARLEYS Год назад

Lee likes it because he's one of the owners of the Victory company. Considering he wasn't forthright to begin with makes me a bit suspicious of everything on the Andertons channel now.

@dominicijavier1575 10 месяцев назад

i think what he meant is he likes this one the best in particular out of the whole range they are offering

@TK96 Год назад

Sounds like Mark series clean which I like. These Victory reviews pretty solid they sound good as they are without any business involvements. I think Lee funded the right amp builder.

@JimmyCzerwinski-p4g Год назад

It's Anderson's brand that's relavant isn't it

@aapddd Год назад

@@JimmyCzerwinski-p4g For me it isn’t. It was clear from the start Andertons had something of a connection to Victory. It didn’t come as a surprise to me. I never bought a Victory because there was always an amp that does the sound I’m after, a bit better. I can see people buying Victory amps though because they do sound very good. People buy Harley Benton because they offer good guitars for little money, not because they are a Thomann brand.

@robertcarey3383 Год назад

He likes it for the same reason Henery Ford likes Ford automobiles.

@literalghost929 Год назад

Ford likes Ford automobiles because they're great cars, not because he owns the company. I owned a Ford and it was an amazing car, and I didn't buy it because Ford said it was great, that didn't matter to me at all, I bought through extensive research because it was the best car, Ford's reviews of his own cars didn't influence me one bit, if you were influenced, you should have been more careful because nobody in the business tells the truth, everybody does it. So not just Ford.
