NAMM 2020: Victory recently announced V4 The Duchess, a 180W amp in a pedal-sized form factor - perfect for guitarists looking to easily take their rigs on the road. The unit also allows players looking for that coveted Duchess tone to achieve it at a more affordable price.
The amp features an all-valve preamp and 180W Class D power section, all housed in a pedal weighing just 1.7kg / 3.75lbs! The amp also features an effect loop, an onboard digital reverb and a tremolo for ambience.
We paid a visit to the Victory booth at NAMM to take a closer look at the V4 Duchess.
