V4 The Kraken Guitar Amplifier

 

 V4 The Kraken partners a V4 Series all-valve preamp with a solid-state, 180-watt Class D power amp. It’s ultra-compact size and negligible weight gives you the portability of the VX Kraken, while the huge tones and power bring the features loved by Super Kraken fans. It’s perfect for home and studio players looking for an elegant solution on a small cab or desktop, and also for touring musicians who need a great sounding, dependable amp.

Victory chief designer, Martin Kidd: “After the success of the V4 Duchess Guitar amp, the Victory amps community kept asking ‘Where is a Kraken version?’ So here it is! With the V4 Kraken Guitar amp we wanted it to have all the best bits of the range, in a package that you could take with you everywhere!”

“So not only does the V4 Kraken Guitar amp have a V4 all-valve preamp front end, a 180 Watt Class D power section, digital reverb, an effects loop and three band EQ. But we are excited to announce we have teamed up with our friends at Two Notes Audio Engineering, so you can carry your Virtual Cabinets with you and recall your six favourites from the preset switch. Victory artist Rabea Massaad has created these presets, so straight out of the box you have six great cabinet sounds. We think this makes the V4 Kraken Guitar amp the perfect all-in-one guitar amp, you can take it anywhere!”

Lush sounding digital reverb to add ambience.
