Victory has become one of the UK's leading guitar amp brands, with dozens of high-profile players relying on its portable lunchbox-style amp heads for performance and recording.
Joining their flagship Compact Series is 'The Copper', an EL84-driven 35w head that captures the chimey essence of legendary AC-style amps from the past. With several modern refinements up its sleeve though, the Victory 'The Copper' is a tweakable, professional-grade amplifier that even modern players can get onboard with.
User-Friendly Formula
The Victory 'The Copper' follows the brand's lightweight Compact Series chassis design, making this lunchbox-style head incredibly portable for gigs. Its size is deceiving though, as this EL84-driven amp has plenty of power at its disposal – with up to 35w of headroom available.
If that seems like too much for the home though, you can power down to a more modest 7W. This lets you enjoy that super-sweet preamp break-up without annoying the neighbours! This function is also useful in a studio scenario, especially if sensitive mics are employed to capture the amp's sound.
AC-Style Clean & Crunch Tones
With just a single channel, the Victory DP40 may seem quite limited to some players. However, its no-nonsense design makes it the perfect amp for plug-in-and-play guitarists that prefer simplicity, with clean and crunch sounds the DP40's speciality.
Voicing & Mid Kick Switches
Despite its single channel, the DP40 is far from one-dimensional. With a dedicated voicing switch on its front panel, you can change the overall response and feel of the amplifier. One of these voicings has a warm '60s-style American character, while the other has more a '50s-esque bark to it – akin to most British amps. There's also a 'Mid Kick' function that, as its name suggests, delivers a rich dose of punchy mid-range.
Perfect Pedal Platform
The DP40 is ideal as a pedal platform, which is a quality that Danish Pete particularly loves about the V40. Set up your preferred base tone via the amp and simply colour it with pedals that can enrich its sound; much like Honoré does with his own overdrive and compressor stompboxes. To ensure that time-based delay and reverb pedals work harmoniously, the DP40 also boasts an effects loop that enables clean pedal operation between its preamp and power amp stages.
Studio-Quality Reverb
Victory's DP40 is designed to take pedals well, but its built-in, studio-quality reverb is definitely worthy of note. Slightly different to the V40's reverb, the effect in the DP40 is tweaked to have a longer decay with a pinch of extra brightness – perfect for embellishing clean tones.
It’s all about the chime. And the rock. And the rock’n’roll. And the roots and the blues and the pop
