In light of the glowing appraisal of these (admittedly pretty excellent-sounding) amplifiers in this video, I think it is important to note that Lee Anderton is a part-owner of Victory Amplifiers. (As revealed in KDH's video on the subject).
bro it's a a store's marketing channel, lee and pete swoon over basically everything they demo. the only guy i've seen whose face lights up more when discussing behringer pedals is jhs.
and lol, pete has a signature amp with victory. if i were hiding my affiliation with an amp company i wouldn't be lurking around in the shadows with a purple amp.
@@MrNathanCurry Pete and the others always disclosed their affiliation - Lee didn't even tell once in ten years that he is the co-owner. That's a breach of business and advertisement laws.
Yea what most people dont get is that its illegal to not disclose this information because of advertising law when endorsing a product. I think the amps are gerat and not problematic but for him to act suprised like its his first time hearing it at times is also a just dishonest.
Excellent video as always and excellent guitar playing. I never really gave Victory products much notice or played on one....yet. But, after the drama coming out of KDH's arse. I am more intrigued and after further research I am considering a purchase in the future.
Really hoping you guys are cooking up a Little Sister (and even Pink Taco v2) vs New Sheriffs video. Pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the 25w in this video, but the versatility of the Super Sheriff is pretty incredible.
@@andertons @andertonstv Yes i wait for it too ! A comparison between Marshall studio range and Friedman little sister and pink taco v2 and now the new Victory Sheriff!
The one thing that kinda sucks is that they tossed the 0.3w speaker out on the 25. It’s one of the best features on any lunchbox amp out there and if it had stayed I would totally replace my 22 for the newer version.
Honestly the master volume on the mk2 does take the amp down to home use volume levels, and if you really want to drive the power amp & keep the volume low then either the Bugera PS1 attenuator or the Two Notes Captor are great options...
@@andertons Depending on how low you really want to go (e.g. sub TV level) you may find that even the modern reactive attentuators don't do it for driving the power section of anything other than very low wattage amps. I have a Torpedo Captor and with my 15W amps and the line out set very low I often can't get past 7 on the master without artifacts creeping in. By he time you're at 10, it's a grate-y fuzzy mess. My 1W heads, on the other hand, I can max out the master/volume (whatever's driving the power section) and they sound excellent. Just a heads up.
Luv my Sheriff 22 at edge of breakup on the vintage channel, gain at 9 master at 12, but as Lee says, very loud for the house. As expected, these sound awesome with an LP. No pedals needed, just roll the volume. One thing, they do expose sloppy playing.
Can you guys do an extensive video on the Zoom g6 and the best ways to run this (directly into amp cab powered or non powered, directly into amp input, through effects loop, etc). I purchased this as a budget friendly option to maximize tone capabilities but I am struggling to get good sounds, I dont know if its how I am physically connecting this thing, my lack of understanding how to build up the effects in the device or what. All the videos I see on this are just reviews telling us that its a good value for the budget but there is nothing great out there on how we should be connecting it to amps or cabs. What a great opportunity for a "DIGITAL JOHN" moment!!! Also, great job, I love all of your videos, I find everything that you all do here very informative and you pump out a massive amount of content... keep on Rockin'!!!
I wish the 25 combo was a little less expensive. £1500 and I'd have to think about selling my V4 Sheriff I've had all of 6 weeks and some other gear to finance it. The Sheriff is a great family of amps though. I like my V4 a lot!
Who cares if they are invested or not? Listen to these amps, and look at all of the features they have. Multichannel, power scaling, more gain on tap etc etc... And I say this as a guy sitting in a room with three Marshall's, I'd buy a Sheriff over the Reissue and at the same price point. Jazzed for the Mastodon interview as well.
you are so right! also, these amps are designed for gigging musicians who for example want the ability to change out a bad tube quickly. 4-8 screws and you can change them no problem...
I played through a 100 watt Marshall Amp in a shitty rehearsal room in the Dockland area of London, it wasn't even a quarter way up and when I palm muted a riff the snare drum would tremble as if some one was playing a quite snare roll. The 100 watt Amp heads will take your head off the power is Awesome .
I use the V4 Preamp of the Sheriff in combination with a V40 Duchess. The Sheriff sounds great from low to higher gain, especially if you also push the power amp of the Duchess and add a little bit of power amp distortion.
I just got a v4 sheriff preamp to couple with my v40 deluxe. How do you like it? Now that this was out I was thinking of going to this but I do love the cleans of the v40 deluxe.
I too have a V40 deluxe, and was thinking of picking up the 25W Sheriff, but hadn’t thought about going the V4 preamp route. How is that working out for you guys? Able to get that classic plexi type Marshall tone still?
How the hell do you justify a £700 difference between the head and combo for a few feet of wood/ tolex a bit of cable, female jack socket and a £135 speaker ?
As I am a victory amp user and have a couple of the lunch box corium heads. I realize that they are PC board construction and unfortunately they have not been the greatest time I’ve had but I like the tones. I think the victory 22 is a better built than the victory 25 and someways not because everything works on the 25 but the 22 had more of the vintage tones I was actually looking for, however, this sheriff 100 as concert and gigs are starting up now. Seems like a great option and I read the specs showing that it is wired now in my victory 22 it had hand wired tube sockets otherwise the rest was all PCB construction sheriff, 25 again all PCB board construction, no hand wiring and no hand wired valve sockets is this amp truly hand wired and if so, what parts what kind of transformers are used and why are these details not published I am all for you owning as much of victory as you want. I’ve said this in another comment, but I do wish you guys would disclose more about the internals, especially when it comes to saying this is a hand wired amp because I’ve got, two Friedmans that cost a whole lot more money to get a hand wired 100 W head than what you’re charging here and that makes me have some serious concerns. Could you please respond with a update on the information I seek as far as the internals of the super sheriff, if not, I know what’s inside the Friedman because they open boxes on other videos. This one I have not been able to see or have describe to me. What was inside of it. I am a totally blind guitarist. follow your channel and enjoy it very much, and as people may be harsh on you for a victory like I said, I hope you on the whole company and make a zillion dollars as long as you treat me fair. I don’t care and I think every other customer in this world and every other business owner should be that way people see a good product for a fair price. If you can do that and offer them the quality and sounds they want then you should get the business but you shouldn’t get the business if you can’t disclose to me the transformers, the quality what parts are wired what parts are not to board or point to point please details would help me a great deal and making this next purchase and it would save me money to purchase your product over the Friedman, but I won’t save money if it’s quality and amplifier thanks 14:4714:5014:5114:5214:5214:5314:5314:57
I moved from Victory to Friedman late last year and I was incredibly happy with both amps! I think if I were to go back to Victory, I would 100% do the super sheriff, I love how there are 2 different head sizes for the same amp. I love smaller amp heads as it’s easier to move between gigs.
Good amps no doubt but I just don't like how they look. I have an aversion against bright LEDs (especially blue ones) and I'm not a fan of the big logo either. I know it's kind of purpose defeating to buy sounds with your eyes but I can't help it.
What I don't like is that the lower wattage amps (lunchbox amps?) don't also get housed in a wooden cabinet with tolex etc. I want the lower wattage version of this amplifier, but I want it in a cabinet like it's big brother. It's really annoying why Victory keep doing this.
Martin K. has created 'The Ultimate' affordable M-Style Amp...Those lower Gain Tones are simply Phenomenal! Super Kuddos to Martin Kidd...Brilliant, just Brilliant!
anybody else switch to bass amps? I switched to using a bass amp for guitar last year and I can't go back to regular guitar amps. Once you get a taste of those mids and low end vibrations you'll never want to use a regular guitar amp again. Guitar amps can't go into the bass frequencies, sadly.
I had the Sheriff 40 but I returned it, because if you turned your gain or master up or down at all you had to redial the tone knobs, totally frustrating. Too bad, I really wanted to like that amp.
Wowseroonies!! Aw man i could totally feel the intro from 'For Those About To Rock' trying to bust its way out into our lug 'oles! Who needs pedals man!!?! Woohoo! 🤘🤘🤘
When I see a Victory Amp, all I can think about is the Lee Anderton ownership “controversy”. Muahahahaha … give me a break!
I love how Pete keeps riffing on Mastodon’s “Blood and Thunder” lately.
Bill was the guest for the next video
@@crookedize Yeah I follow the Captain on Instagram too
Yeah, he keeps trying. Hope he hits the target and shows us the full riff before Christmas 2023
Mastodon uses Victory amps!
I would love to see these shouted out versus the new PRS HDRX!
Well that's improved my afternoon - a new Andertons! 😁
Victory for president!❤😂
I love my superkraken and super dutchess.
Also, Victory has great support.
Looking forward to looking the videos
Even though I'm just listening to it through my laptop speakers I was wincing when Lee was inching the volume on the 100w up lmao
“Our friends at victory” bro actually owns the company 😂
lets reinvent the wheel yet again , lets build an amp that sounds like a marshall and sell it at twice the price
So, will you finally admit that you are a part owner of Victory amps?
He already made a video about it and seriously who cares anyway?
Ya. Ya. Ya. Huh, huh uh, ya ya , scratch my ears, ya ya ya, oh. Ya ya yep, huh uh, ya swivel my chair, ya ya. Huh,
Did Danish Pete stray into some Mastodon!
Great video chaps and killer sounding amps
you need to get reba to do a proper demo of this... playing with the high gain full out on the rhythm pickup of a les paul is idiotic

Does Andertons/Lee have a stake in Victory amps?
ya, they have a store that profits from selling them
@@Dasrocknrolla To be fair, they make nice stuff. The Duchess pre-amp is currently my favorite.
@@danieljones8706 I fall in love every time I play my original V40 Dutches head. Especially now I’ve re biased the amp a bit hotter. Love it.
@@danieljones8706 far cry from the old confords
Those amps sound great! I'm really digging Victory amps!!!🇨🇦
Every time i hear a victory amp, i am convinced that they are great, honestly

@@andertons Nice! Make sure to include those little Marshall Studio series while you're at it!
@@andertons @andertonstv Yes i wait for it too ! A comparison between Marshall studio range and Friedman little sister and pink taco v2 and now the new Victory Sheriff!
@@andertonswatched the shootout. Loved it. Was hoping to see the Super Sheriff up against some competition.
Big hindsight #ad 🤣
Friedman and Victory make better sounding Marshall amps than Marshall :)
have you guys done a vid on which is a better pedal platform solid state amp vs tube amp ? if not might be a good video ...

So true. I went from a year of playing plugins and such to a victory sheriff 44 and while the tone was top notch the amp showed that I was not 🤣
Hope you guys are wearing some ear protection! Tinnitus is no joke. Thanks for the showcase guys🔥🔥
IT IS A JOKE
At about 22.30-40 you get a good view of their ears. No protection.
Wadya say?
The Captain Meets Billy K or Dirty B.Hinds?!
100% coming soon....
@@andertons Big hype! It's not just big, it's large!
Pete doing a little Bryan Adams run to you. That was sweet he just lit up ! :D. Yeah very nice! The sheriff range really do sound lovely!
Yeah Pete has said in other videos how much he admires Bryan Adams’ guitar player Keith Scott. Way underrated musician.
Think Marshall just need to bring out a JVM studio 25.

25W sounds better IMO.
I bought the older one a whole 7 days ago hahaha, its a very good amp!
I bought mine about a month ago lol
Does the sheriff have a rusty badge? I think that Victory amps has missed something by not making a 50 watt version!
I still love my Cornford Roadhouse
I wish the 25 combo was a little less expensive. £1500 and I'd have to think about selling my V4 Sheriff I've had all of 6 weeks and some other gear to finance it.
The Sheriff is a great family of amps though. I like my V4 a lot!
Have nothing against this amps. Great amps. But association with "Classic and modern British Rock Tones" for me is Marshall and Orange.

These look great, but do I change my SC20H?
If this was filmed after Pete drilled a hole in his martin, I can understand the absence of the opening jam on this video. 😅 Love the reviews, gents!
"If you look up other words that are similar to Sheriff"
"Yeah, yeah, haha, I didn't shoot him."
No Pete he means Marshall not Deputy...
Its a crime in 33 states to play sweet child of mine on anything thats not a Silver Jubilee
Wow, great video as always! I look forward to the shoot out. Would you be willing to include the PRS HDRX with the Friedman and the Victory? Thanks!
these guys are always SOOO hesitant to DIME the gain....
let me at it.... I'm not scurd of DIALS
You had me at NEW Victory...

OOW THAT KIN HURT PETE, IN THAT HUNDRED WATT MODE.
cheers guys
We carnt find anyone who makes these amps. Or chapman guitars. There all prompted by Anderson channel. Haha these guys are car salesmans. And worse
When is the Special Guest interview that's mentioned? Sounds AC/DC related - surely not Angus?
That's what I was thinking
I believe the captain has an investment
lol
I wondered why this channel always pushes Victory amps
If I'm not mistaken he's an investor in Victory.
I’ve read comments from a while back suggesting that he had some part of it
They never demo music products and recommend Against purchase
What stools are you guys using? Have you ditched the Gibraltar drum thrones now?
Neck pick up for sweet child lol :)
No way, Angus?
Can't be? What a treat that would be.
How the hell do you justify a £700 difference between the head and combo for a few feet of wood/ tolex a bit of cable, female jack socket and a £135 speaker ?
Yup, pretty bonkers decision. I can't see that selling.
i'd love to see a marshall type shootout!
Coming soon....
How is the attack? Is it.......immediate?
Which speaker cab is being used for this and what specific speakers are in it please?
Annnnnnnd I just bought a sheriff 44…. Now I want the 100….
Sounds great. Could use more gain in the ‘hot rod’ and then it would really cover the bases.
Pete - where did you get your strides from?
The guys at Victory have done a great job :)
No reverb sucks
Yeah. They should have thrown in the same digi verb they put on some of the other like the Copper and Duchess.
When is the new B.Kelliher amp debut video going to air on your channel?

Very expensive amps, sound goods
My Lord..... That Victory sounds more like the perfect Marshall, than a perfect Marshall could be...
Great amps. Still wait for the moment when Danish Pete finally learn Blood and Thunder riff on a full speed.😅😅😅

Will the v4 pedal amps be getting the updates (e.g. Kraken v2, sheriff)?
The new side angle camera,very speiberg,great close up of Pete having a clean out..
Hey Guys, the sheriff 25 in comparison to the VC35 the copper, which one is more suitable for classic rock tones?
Just ordered the Sheriff 25 it should be here in a few days. Super excited!!!
is angus young coming later?
Sorry guys but compared to the official Victory demo, you’ve made this amp sound dreadful
(Tubes aren't filters, changing them only changes the power handling!)
Pete has an interesting was of describing tone--bucket tone, rough glove tone.....
Theres a new Sheriff in town! Should i have said that?
Someone had to! 😂
I like Pete very much he’s a great musician, but when demoing an amplifier and the wording is modern rock I think Rabea would be a better choice.
When is Pete going to give us a rundown of his Strymon-ified Fender pedalboard?
If you guys got Angus Young for a Captain Meets... Bellissimo!
I love the Sheriff redesign. They sound great
Ha-ha! Danish Pete, Volume Pig! I like seeing him loving the Hell out of making a lot of racket.
Wow, I think DP may have indulged a wee bit too much caffeine today.
Just ordered the 25 from yourselves. Hurry up Monday. :)
A late reaction but I knew that, deep inside, Pete, had some metal genes 👍🏼🤓
You can physically see Lee getting more and more exhausted sitting opposite that speaker as the video progresses 🤣🤣
Hurrah. They finally fixed the Sheriff range! It's actually a usable gigging amp now.
I‘m confused - so is the old Sheriff range (22 etc) discontinued?
I've got a feeling that next "Captain meets..." is with Bill Kelliher - that would be great!
I’d like to point out that Pete is wearing camouflage cargo pants
Not even close to JCM800
