VICTORY V1 The Kraken - Effects Pedal

Victory V1 Series Pedals

THE DUCHESS
Designed to emulate the V40 Duchess, it can add a vintage American clean sound, a clean boost or a surprising amount of American style gain to your rig.

THE COPPER
Classic British Rock tone as soon as you engage the Copper. Push the gain up and you are into 70’s Classic British Rock, then dial it back for 60’s British Blues Rock and everything in between.

THE JACK
A Victory classic based on the V30 Jack designed in collaboration with Guthrie Govan. The Jack can do low gain, barky sounds, all the way through to over the top gain.

THE SHERIFF
All out rock from the Sheriff family in this V1, keep the gain low to get the vintage channel sounds, then push the gain up for 80’s hard rock sounds.

THE KRAKEN
This V1 pedal is all about gain, keeping the gain down will give you channel 1 British Gain of the VX, then pushing the gain up is Channel 2 American High gain sounds.

Victory And Thorpy FX Team Up To Create The Ultimate Victory Amp In A Box!
Victory is excited to announce the V1 series of pedals, designed in collaboration with award winning pedal maker Adrian Thorpe MBE. The brief was simple to create a single button footswitch pedal that encapsulated each of our Victory family of amps.

These five stompboxes are designed and hand built in the UK, Adrian and Martin collaborated to bring the Duchess, the Copper, the Sheriff, the Jack and the Kraken to a small, ‘amp in a box’ stompbox. We are proud and excited to share these creations with you!

How the collaboration came about...
“The idea of a collaboration was something that made a good deal of sense, as we (Victory) were to an extent, venturing into the unknown... At Victory, we have the knowhow, of course; however, being able to make use of Adrian’s (Thorpy’s) experience and the various subtleties of his design ethic, enabled us to better appeal to the player who likes a clean amp platform; getting their various sounds from pedals.”
Martin Kidd, Chief Designer at Victory

“We were keen to make the V1 pedals sound as close to the full-bore valve amps as possible but working with Martin and the team meant that we had to be even more precise to do their amp designs justice in solid state pedal form. It took a long time and many times we had to go back to the drawing board.
Despite this, maintaining an uncompromising nature of what the Victory sound is, means that pedal fiends worldwide can enjoy these pedals, no matter what their flavour preferences.
I’m proud to say we worked on these V1 pedals.”
Adrian Thorpe MBE, Thorpy FX
