The latest EL84 model from the impressive Victory line, with Vox roots!

Victory Amps is one of our favorite amplifier brands. The way they take old amplifiers as a basis and give them a compact, modern and reliable design is very cool and above all quite unique, especially in this price range. The brand comes with a great new amplifier: the VC35 "The Copper". The British company pays their own tribute to compatriot Vox with this beautiful amp, which is equipped with the classic 4 x EL84 configuration. The Copper guarantees enough chime, beautiful highs and a wonderfully biting midrange. Yet the Victory VC35 is not "just" a Vox clone. As Victory's Martin Kidd himself describes, the VC35 also borrows some inspiration from the Marshall 1974/2061. In addition, The Copper uses a combination of fixed and cathode bias in full power mode. In addition, the amplifier is equipped with a NOS (new old stock) EF184 pentode tube in a so-called cathode following configuration to drive the tone stack in the preamplifier. These tubes have the specific feature that they are not microphonic, and above all they are well built and very reliable. The result? A BIG sound!

As befits Victory, they have packed all the goodness of these legendary AC amplifiers into a nice lunchbox format. Ideal for going out! In addition, Victory has expanded the amplifier with a full three-band EQ & mid-boost and bass-cut switches to fine-tune the ideal mid-range character. The cool thing about The Copper is the enormous versatility that the amplifier offers. Both high-gain enthusiasts and clean purists can indulge themselves, because this amplifier does not have a single sweet spot: every setting sounds good and is very usable. This is simply the ideal EL-84 amplifier for both stage performers and living room guitarists!
