    It sounds amazing, I had the small 50 watts version. Not sure if someone already said it but this amp is actually based on the 5150 and the Marshall JVM410 not the JCM800.

    • @gkswift1999
      @gkswift1999 Рік тому

      Nope. Rabea and Martin Kidd (Engineer/Owner of Victory) both said they used Rabea's '92 5150 and his JCM 900. Its easy to see how one would guess the JVM410, as its got a 900 circuit tone to it.

    Johns riffs are so fing catchy. First time I ever saw him rip with the guitar was in ola's helix stomp video. Since then, I've honestly been hooked. I just started getting back into guitar after a 10+ year break, and what keeps me motivated are the tunes that John comes up with. I am lucky to have stumbled upon his videos because they really inspire me to play the guitar a lot more. Thanks John for the quality content and amazing riffage.

  • @MrHaggyy
    @MrHaggyy Рік тому

    This amp is sick. To my ears it's an evolutio of the Sum41 sound. They used to blend Marshalls with an SLO. For me the Kraken does the same but with a slightly modern gain that's not as gainy sounding as a 5150, but rather raw and barky.

    Glad you reviewed this amp, i think it's honestly one of the most underrated metal amps out there. Since its release i haven't seen it on youtube too much. But i have used it as main amp since its release and it's just so versatile and good soiunding every step of the way. My only gripe with it is taht i would probably have liked a presence knob, but that's about all the complaints i have.

    I don't really get what you mean when you say the 5150 sounds slow. Slow like how a digital amp feels? I never felt that about mine and have went through a few amps. I tend to like a bright amp sound bc my pickups are pretty dark so I mostly love it for how bright it gets when u crank the presence.

  • @Mudder1310
    @Mudder1310 3 роки тому +1

    I thought the tones were great, very aggressive without being abrasive. It sounds sort of unforgiving, like there’s a precision or maybe transparency that doesn’t help hide mistakes. For some players that’s a plus, for others maybe not so much? I might be a bit too sloppy to really love this amp. But in the right hand, obv, it’s terrific.
