100 Handwired Watts of Uncompromising Clean Tones
Celebrating Victory Amplification’s 10th anniversary with a single-channel victory lap, the MK Clean 100-watt tube amplifier head was designed by Victory Amplification head engineer Martin Kidd with a single laser-focused purpose: provide guitarists with the ultimate clean platform, no compromises or constraints required. This amp’s quartet of 6L6 power tubes, premium handwired components, versatile Master Volume control, and dual voicing switch deliver a rich range of character-filled cleans with just enough headroom to provide stage-ready cleans before cascading into sweet saturation. In the classic clean amp tradition, the MK Clean also boasts a true analog spring reverb section, along with handy reverb send controls. A robust EQ section consisting of a 3-band EQ, Presence knob, Bright switch, and Bass switch tops it all off, all adding up to a masterful bit of British valve amp engineering that rings in Victory’s 10th with some of the finest cleans on either side of the Atlantic.

Ample EQ control and two distinctive sonic voices
The Victory Amplification MK Clean is both a wholly new tube amp creation and a celebration of the greatest sounds of the past, sporting a straightforward single-channel design, 3-band EQ, and Bass/Bright switches that fall well within the tube amp tradition. However, what really sets this amp’s tonal versatility over the edge is the immensely powerful 2-position voicing switch. When set to Voice 1, the MK Clean recalls the clear, bell-like cleans of the 1950s, while Voice 2 injects a jolt of upper-midrange for a more modern punch. Lastly, a flexible Presence control makes it a breeze to dial in your overall treble response, resulting in a supremely flexible amplifier that can capture the cleans of almost any era.
Savor the sound of true spring reverb
When a track calls for a vintage-style splash, nothing beats the vibrant sound of true spring reverb. The Mk Clean’s long Accutronics reverb tank imparts your licks and rhythms with a wide sense of springy space, from a slight touch of echo to full-on surfy drip. What’s more, the MK Clean also gives you reverb send controls to squash any unwanted distortion when pairing the reverb with higher-gain tones.
Celebrating 10 years of sweet victory
Decades before the brand’s first launch in 2013, Victory Amplification longtime chief designer Martin Kidd served as a beacon of British tube amp design, designing and consulting for many of the guitar world’s most cherished amp builders. To celebrate Victory’s 10th, Martin was tasked with what we can only imagine to be an amp designer’s dream project: bring to fruition the greatest single-channel clean amp and multichannel dirty amps you’ve ever built — with no constraints, no budget, and, most importantly, no compromises. The result? Two of the finest handwired tube amps to ever roll through Sweetwater’s doors, with every single amplifier given a full checkover from Martin himself before they leave Victory Amplification’s English factory.
