  • Come on Victoria amps, you have to do something about the quality of your recordings, I know for a fact that Victorias have a killer sound and the videos are not making the amps any justice.

  • Filthy, disgusting and raunchy. I want one!

  • These amps are phenomenal, the only improvement is to change the speaker to a 8" Weber Blue Pup, unbelievable tone.

  • My 518 got here a couple months ago. Here is what I know:

    1. The little speaker produces an unexpectedly balanced EQ, with no deadness in the bass.

    2. The amp's tone, especially without pedals, is very, very rich. Lots of lovely overtones.

    3. It ain't cheap.

    4. It's worth it.

    5. I like the fact it is very light.

  • @nashvillegirl PERFECTLY SAID!!! hahaha so true.

  • Perfect amp for ponytail lawyer blues.... May all your Layla dreams come true.

  • one of the best champ style amps i've heard

    probably any guitar wouldl sound good in this

    this amps speaks with authority....cheers

  • Got the tone,now just need a mic for the vids

  • Mark... if that is your real name (lol). I keep coming back to this vid because 1) the tone is phenomenal and 2) your playing is extremely soulful. One of these days I'm going to buy one of your amps and a strat. Keep making the vids!

  • Awesome! This man knows how to build em' AND how to make em' sound good! Great chops on a great amp! He knows the blues!
