Victory Amplification V4 The Kraken 180-watt Guitar Amplifier Pedal

180-watt, 2-channel Tube Amplifier Pedal with 3-band EQ, Reverb, Cab Sim XLR Output, Series Effects Loop, and Line Output

A Fire-breathing Amp for Your Pedalboard

Much more than a preamp pedal, the Victory Amplification V4 The Kraken is a 180-watt preamp/power amp powerhouse that can fit on your pedalboard. Use it to drive your favorite speaker cabinet, or send the Two Notes Torpedo Cab Sim XLR output directly to your recording interface or mixing board. Developed with modern guitar phenom Rabea Massaad, V4 The Kraken is primed for heavy, progressive rock tone that's perfect for extended-range tunings. Factor in an effects loop to integrate your delay and reverb pedals, plus a USB port for tone tweaking with the free Torpedo Remote app, and the Victory Amplification V4 The Kraken amplifier pedal is a complete solution for modern rock guitarists.

Two versatile, dynamic gain options

Developed with Rabea Massaad, The Kraken delivers hefty, versatile gain options. Gain mode I exemplifies classic British-style-friendly mids that create the perfect tonal range for genres like classic rock and metal — this mode especially complements dynamic playing within a hard rock structure. Conversely, Gain mode II provides a tighter, more grinding "American" midrange voice that is perfect for aggressive picking styles and heavy metal riffing.

All-tubes, all-star clarity

Here at Sweetwater, we know guitarists crave tube tone, and V4 The Kraken puts true tube tone right on your pedalboard. Equipped with a total of four valves to deliver true tube overdrive, Victory Amps made sure that V4 The Kraken didn't miss a single beat while harnessing that warm valve sound. The belly of the beast has one EC900 and three CV4014 valves running at high plate voltage to drive it, giving you the touch response and tonal complexity only a world-class tube amp can offer.

Go direct with Two Notes Torpedo Cab Sim technology

While the V4 The Kraken amplifier pedal can drive any speaker cabinet with ease, it's ready to capture your signature tones direct thanks to its Two Notes Torpedo Cab Sim XLR output. For the best of both worlds, you can connect the XLR out directly to your recording interface or mixing board, while also driving a speaker cabinet with the speaker output. Out of the box, V4 The Kraken is loaded with six cab sim presets created by Rabea Massaad. Connect V4 The Kraken to your computer via USB, and you can use the free Torpedo Remote app to tweak power amp modes, rooms, EQ, and more.

Characterful Valve Response Circuit (VRC)

It's plain to see how the classic, vibrant character of a tube amp surfaces in multiple stages of its circuitry. But a stomp box that fits snuggly on your board while mimicking the thumpy power section of a true tube amp is something we surely thought we'd never see — it's also something we never knew we needed! This delightfully accurate effect comes courtesy of Victory Amps' proprietary Valve Response Circuit, essentially reproducing the function of a resonance control circuit. Inject your setup with the painstakingly precise tube amp replication of V4 The Kraken, and feel the 180W of analog warmth on all fronts of your tone!
