Where Pristine Clarity Meets Boutique Craftsmanship
When chief designer Martin Kidd set out to create the MK Clean, he drew on over three decades of amp-building expertise to craft Victory Amplification’s ultimate clean-tone machine. This elegant single-channel tube amp head houses a 30-watt, 6L6-powered output stage, delivering a rich, articulate foundation for any tone you want to build. Whether you’re chasing sparkling cleans, touch-sensitive blues grit, or a pristine pedal platform, the MK Clean is engineered to deliver with authority. It inherits the tone-shaping versatility of Victory’s 100-watt MK Clean model, offering a Voice switch, Bright and Bass Shift toggles, a 3-band EQ, Presence, and Master Volume controls. You’ll also find the same lush, tube-driven Accutronics spring reverb and a premium switchable effects loop, ensuring studio-quality depth and flexibility. For guitarists in search of transcendent clean tones, the Victory Amplification MK Clean is ready to inspire.

Timeless clean tones with modern flexibility
Building on the success of the original 100-watt MK Clean head, this 30-watter retains its signature features while offering a refined platform for players seeking the perfect tonal foundation. Like its predecessor, it embraces a classic single-channel layout with a 3-band EQ and intuitive Bright and Bass Shift switches that fall well within the tube amp tradition. What truly elevates this amp’s tonal flexibility, however, is the powerful 2-position Voice switch. In Voice 1, the amp delivers shimmering, bell-like cleans reminiscent of iconic ’50s American circuits. Flip to Voice 2, and you’re met with a bold upper-midrange presence that channels the punchy character of ’60s British amps. Rounding out the tone-shaping tools is a responsive Presence control, allowing you to fine-tune the amp’s treble contour with ease. The result is a remarkably versatile head capable of capturing clean tones from nearly any era — vintage to modern, and everything in between.
Savor the sound of true spring reverb
When your track calls for a vintage-style splash, nothing delivers quite like the lush character of true spring reverb. The Victory Amplification MK Clean’s long Accutronics reverb tank infuses your playing with a spacious, springy ambience, ranging from subtle echoes to full-on surf-inspired drip. And for players pushing into higher-gain territory, Reverb In Level and Reverb Out Level controls let you tame unwanted distortion, ensuring your reverb stays clear and musical at any level.
A legacy of tone, refined for today’s players
Equipped with a 30-watt power stage driven by two 6L6 tubes, the MK Clean is a dream come true for tone purists. Designed by Victory Amplification’s chief designer, Martin Kidd, the 30-watt MK Clean builds on the legacy of the original 100-watt model, preserving its signature features while expanding its appeal to players seeking the ideal tonal foundation. Whether you’re after shimmering clean chords, thick bluesy rhythms, or a pristine platform for your pedalboard, this handwired tube head delivers with authority. Beyond that, each unit is meticulously inspected by Martin himself before leaving Victory Amplification’s UK workshop, ensuring that every amp rolling through Sweetwater’s doors meets the highest standards of craftsmanship and tone.
