Description

The V1 Kraken pedal, a collaboration between Victory Amps and Thorpy FX, captures the essence of the Victory VX Kraken amp in a compact, powerful stompbox. Designed for high gain players, the Victory Amps Kraken V1 delivers a range of tones, from classic British crunch to searing modern American high gain. The V1 Kraken packs the full fury of the VX Kraken's gain stages, offering articulate, crisp tones that shine with extended range and low tuned guitars.

With its versatile three band EQ, the V1 Kraken allows players to shape their tone to suit any amp or setup. The EQ controls, bass, middle, and treble, provide a wide tonal range, giving you full control to dial in your perfect sound, whether you're after mid heavy British tones or aggressive American distortion. The midrange is particularly powerful, allowing for precise shaping of your core sound, while the pedal’s low noise floor ensures clarity, even when used with multiple effects in a chain.

Hand built in the UK, the Victory Amps V1 Kraken features a rugged all metal enclosure, designed to withstand the rigours of the road. The graphics, inspired by the Kraken myth, add a unique visual flair to the pedal’s design. A clear power indicator ensures you know when the pedal is engaged, and true bypass circuitry guarantees your signal remains pristine when the pedal is off. With sub 20mA current draw, the Victory Amps V1 Kraken pedal is easy to integrate into any pedalboard without requiring any special power considerations.

The Victory Amps V1 Kraken is designed to meet the needs of both professional and hobbyist musicians. Its top mounted jacks make for easy pedalboard integration, saving space and keeping your setup tidy. And with Victory’s five year limited warranty, you can count on reliable performance for years to come.
