Based on Guthrie Govan's Signature Amplifier
Victory Amplification’s V1 series of pedals packs the power of their full-size tube amps into a pedalboard-friendly package! While V1 The Jack may not have any tubes, legendary British stompbox guru Adrian Thorpe was tapped to fine-tune the entire V1 series to perfectly capture the voice, feel, and vibe of their valve-powered siblings. Their research has certainly paid off — V1 The Jack beautifully replicates the voice of Victory Amplification’s Jack Family, a series that was designed in collaboration with virtuoso guitarist Guthrie Govan to serve as a tonal “jack of all trades.” Bass, treble, and tone controls allow you to shape your sound for almost any 6-string application, while the volume and gain controls take you from a low-gain bite to sustaining, saturated leads. If your pedalboard real estate is at a premium, the V1 series’ combination of tube-flavored tone and stompbox simplicity is a winning formula for sonic victory!

The Jack of all trades
The Jack family of amplifiers was designed in collaboration with legendary guitarist Guthrie Govan to cover his entire tonal range — no small task, considering Guthrie is a genre-defying chameleon and one of the 21st century’s true 6-string masters. The V1 The Jack from Sweetwater perfectly translates the tube-powered Jack’s tonal flexibility, easily tackling everything from an edge-of-breakup bark to lush saturation that will make your leads sing with harmonic complexity.
Big sound, tiny box
Victory Amplification’s V4 series of preamp-in-a-box pedals took the world by storm when they were first announced, providing guitarists with true tube amplification tone in an exceptionally portable form factor. However, what if they were more portable? That’s the mission of the V1 series, a range of stompboxes that squeezes the respective sonic might of the Copper, Duchess, Jack, Kraken, and Sheriff into a pedalboard-friendly size! While the V1 series ditches the tubes, they were designed in collaboration with legendary pedal maker Adrian Thorpe to precisely capture the voice of their valve counterparts. Handbuilt in the UK, Victory Amplification’s V1 pedals can easily be tossed onto even the smallest of boards for massive tones in a standard stompbox form factor!
