I love me some Rabea first thing in the morning
Hi ray, love your channel!
@@ZorroTheWevile hell yeah thanks man!
Rayyyy I always watch your videos!!!!
@@ananth_s hey thanks so much thats awesome!
Thanks for watching guys.
I know I’m biased, because I work with Victory, being heavily involved with the design of the VX series. So I just urge you to try one. Find a guitar, plug in and use any reverb or delay etc, and just play. Having the 3 channels with an optional boost, gives you soooo many options. Then the fact it’s midi programmable means it is as flexible functionally as you want!
To me, as a fan of amps, tone and all that geeky stuff, it is one of the best amps I’ve had the pleasure of playing.
I hope you enjoy it!
It's out of topic but, Rabea, have you heard the band "Jinjer"? They do prog-growl-rock and they are just awesome! The vocalist is a girl and she is a rock queen! The the rest of the band is very cool! You should check them out if have not done this yet! You will like them for sure!
Bea! Have you ever thought about profiling this thing and selling it to like Kemper or the HX stuff? Also making IR’s? Would be awesome for those that use digital stuff.
Was this the EL34 or 6L6 model?
Is this amp supposed to be a blend of 5150 and jcm 900?
The Authentic Steve ... 🦗 🦗 🦗...
3:55 I've been waiting for this moment for 4 years.
Guys,it's over, Bea can sweep pick now, we can all stop.
Edit : ffs he even became a human B-bender (7:15). What can't he play..
I watched that part about 10 times to try to see exactly how he was doing that.... sound was fantastic
Some beautiful chords and lead playing on that tele Bea, such a creative and versatile guitar player. Lots of respect, keep up the great videos! Look forward to hearing more from Toska :)
Been gigging it this year and it is an absolute MONSTER!! I also can fit it in an overhead on the plane. One of a kind amp!!
couldnt help but clock that karnivool chord progression at 10:25 from that old live vid of goliath from years back. have always loved that intro
Me too! I learned the riff, and its really nice to play if you get it right.
@@luuk341 same here man! its really fun to mess around with because theres so many nuances in the progression
@@luuk341 are there any tabs online? I would love to learn it
@@nikolas7891 There could be, I learnt it by ear.
Harvey Magher Bea actually commented on that video saying how awesome that chord progression is. I listened to the live recording and I thought I recognized the intro from one of Bea’s demos, and the first comment I see was his!
Good God those clean tones and playing are amazing
10:25 The Goliath live intro! One of the best intros out there
Emilio White hell yeah
Emilio White I saw that live recording a few days ago, it’s such a good performance! Bea actually commented on the video saying how awesome that chord progression was
Damn that beautiful LP and the kraken are a great match. Those tones were awesome
I heard a Karnivool live intro in there, love it!
Clean tune is so Opeth-y in places. Awesome tone and style.
Awesome tones!! The Tele had some really nice tones. I am starting to appreciate Teles more and more. But I love the neck pickup on a Les Paul during leads. The super Kraken sounds wicked..lots of versatility.
3 yrs. later but did you by any chance try a tele with a humbucker in the neck?
All I Can Say is Bea, With Go Down In History As One Of The Greats 👍👍🎶🎶🎸Keep Us Rockin Brother.
You are becoming so much more fluent on that 7-string👊
Yeah and just a few weeks ago (I think) during the baritone 6 vs. 7 video, he was saying how the 7 felt a little awkward for him. Didn't think it would last that long, lol.
The Les Paul sound was absolutely fantastic!👏👏👏😊
Honestly love all of your content, fun to listen to and informative. I'm a big fan of all the gear demos you have done too. However I was wandering how different speakers would react with this behemoth of a guitar amplifier
indeed, the speaker plays a big role and makes a drastic difference for tone and response
Pretty much pointless to review an amp with just 1 type of speaker (imo), testing out amps in a store with a speaker you don't own is equally futile imo
@@Dextrome I agree
I have just picked one of these beauties up. To say I'm excited is an understatement. It's wonderfully detailed and well put together.
Are you still liking the amp? Also how is the fullness and gain at lower volumes.
What a bunch of awesome riffs in this video, niceeeeee
Like the new intro 👍🏻 great tones and playing anyway💪🏻
The clean/crunchy tones sound just like my v40. Love those big open ambient chords
I will say fantastic demonstration of the amps capabilities and amazing playing as usual
Thank you. That’s my point as well.
What is a canvas without paint? It is an empty space waiting to display the artwork you’re about to lay upon it.
And that art will vary depending on your choice of paint and your technique as an artist.
What is an amp with no guitar?
It is an empty space waiting to amplify the art you’re about to input into it.
And that sound will vary depending on the choice of guitar and the technique of the player playing it.
The signal begins with the guitar and even on its own the guitar does nothing until you the player bring the sound out of it.
One could argue the signal actually begins with the player.
But all in all yes it was a great demo and always love Bea’s playing.
Les Paul sounds absolutely amazing. Top playing as always too, man.
The second you started on the LP, what a full thick sound
Man I wish I could play a quarter that he does ! After 14 years I'm still not getting there ! :( You're a sick guitar player and a big inspiration ! Keep it up my man
As soon you picked up the Les Paul it reminded me of Velvet Revolver style playing. Slash was one of my biggest inspirations, I can see a lot of his style in your playing
Thank you Rabea, this amp is awesome and it's always a pleasure to hear you playing ! Now i want to buy a VX100 😀.
Cheers from France
I really appreciate the work you did with victory to make the kraken happen. I bought a Kraken preamp pedal that I send through my Orange effects loop in a four-cable setup and it roars so hard! Thank you for making it happen with them!
Hey Rabea. I just got my Super Kraken today. It is a monster! The tones you can get out of it are incredible. I absolutely love it!
Nice playing, Bea.
Those tele tones are rad!
Bea have you considered maybe teaming up with Neural DSP for your own version and spin on one of these wicked plug-ins they're currently creating?
A Super Kraken amp sim would be an instabuy for sure.
@@tappistrt I think the Archetype Nolly has a Victory Kraken amp
@@danielschafhautle1691 It's not really a standard Kraken. Nolly said in the interview that it's a heavily modified frankenstein amp. Maybe has some Hiwatt parts as well iirc.
GREAT AMP! I've always liked the tones that you and "The Monkey Lord" get out of them. However, I WAS surprised with the versatility of the amp that you demonstrated.
Everything sounded so good (as you always do), and some of those chords. . . . . Just DAMN!!😎. Great video
Sweet video. Versatility is one of my primary desires in an amp and is one big factor why I bought a VX100. Interestingly enough, two days ago I ordered a Boss TAE because the Super Kraken is so loud. Can’t wait to check it out.
The clean tones and the lead are awesome
Topend playing and gear! Something about that paul paint job says play me hard when other pauls say “leave on shelf-pretty but too posh”. Dunno why.
10:35 that slight nod to Karnivool, love it
Bruno Abud it actually is karnivool
Those are some great sounding amps my friend! And great playing as always mate!
Oh yes!!!! All of that was mighty tasty! Love the music just flowing, trying things out. 👍👌🤘
Those cleans with the Tele are incredible
That Gibson sound so great! And the Chapman’s sound was cool, too when you played lead.
Yes, I got a Kraken too!
Nice Playing, Bea.
Greets from Germany
OMG Bea! This black beauty is fookin awesome. Goosssh. I love it! I'm going to put my standard to reverb. The amp sick too!
Actual black beauties have three buckers
Fantastic! Amazing playing!
Man, I am already so pleased with the VX Kraken, but the Super Kraken really beats 'em all. Thanks for another great video, Bea!
Tasty stuff on the Les Paul
While I was watching when he played with the LP I thought: mmm this sounds exactly the same as Tool.
*1 minute later*
Bea played Lateralus
10:26 is chill af
I love that third tone the best!!!
When you hear guitarists say, "Tone comes from your fingers", this is a perfect example. Just the first few chords, I'm like, "Oh, he's so amazing." lol.
@@s1iznc1d34 good gear will make a good player sound better, but it won't fix a lack of skill. There's that vid of satriani playing a cheap guitar and he sounds almost exactly like he does normally, cause he's satriani. Sure he probably enjoys his fancy ones more, but he doesn't need em.
@@s1iznc1d34 yes, but it's icing on the cake. Focus on style and fundamentals and only upgrade your gear when you need to. A lot of folks who play every 5th open mic night at their local pub try to justify top of the line PRS guitars by talking about tone when no one is going to care about the different sound other than them. If you like shiny stuff buy shiny stuff, but don't pretend like you need it to sound good.
It’s a combination of player, instrument, amp, cab, speaker, environment.
None of us would sound like Bea if he literally just handed you the guitar still plugged in with the exact same settings.
Just like we would all paint differently based on our choice of brush, paint, canvas, and environment.
It’s a combination of things.
The amp does nothing unless it receives a signal.
This was more to me a demonstration of how well it handles different input sources.
And I always love Bea’s playing.
Your LP seems to be sooooo small in your hands than mine in my hands!!!! :)
Gr8 Bea, as usual!!!!
I see you have the les paul a half step down... writing some DORJE riffs?!?!? ;) cheers mate
That ml1 7 is a whole new guitar with the bareknuckles in there. Much more attack and mids sound scooped.
Great tones and great playing Rabea! \,,,/
I liked all the tones I've heard from this cool video. My preference goes to the tele ones but, seriously, all the other was fine in their genre. Great amp, great guitars but, first of all, great playing.
Totally brilliant video! Amazed by the tones of this monster! Dat face when you lick lol
it‘s such a pleasure every time to watch you play... wish I had a few tabs to what you play! especially for the chords!
maybe you could do a video about how to find riffs for demoing and so on ;-)
Great tones, I especially liked the LP👍
Not only was this an awesome video about an awesome amp. I also pickedup a bunch of rifs from it!
Grew up as a Vai satch fan. Now I can’t imagine a week without a Bea riff🤘
I'd love to hear Keith Merrow through this amp and see what he'd come up with!
Awesome amp Bea, and great video!
Rabea, have you heard the band "Jinjer"? They do prog-growl-rock and they are just awesome! The vocalist is a girl and she is a rock queen. The the rest of the band is very cool! You should check them out if have not done this yet! You will like them for sure!
I would love to see you do a video on how you use the G2 to control midi on the amp. Especially since I use that same combo
Love that Les Paul tone!
Side note, any news on the affordable Bea sigs? Keen on the baritone :P
Always such tasty playing!
Dude you are awesome, you are my idol!!!!!!!
Does it sound great at lower volumes? A lot of hundred watt amps out there don’t really open up until you crank them.
I would like to know this also
Question for ask the fro: Any reason you are holding your guitar differently in this vid?
digging the new intro!
Some immense tones here, have to wear a cup when entering this amp room
Everyone in my house just listened to your video. They just didn't know they were going to, lol.
Hi Rabea, awesome amp! I'm thinking of ordering one, but I have a question: is this amp capable of loud stage volume cleans without any breakup on humbuckers, if you keep gain 1 low and use one of the masters only for the clean channel?
Beautiful tones and playing ,as usual Bea but i was just wondering after watching many of your vids and seeing all the crazy scales and chord combinations you do...do you ever experience hand pains or do you do any specific warm-ups or exercises before you get into it? Thanks for the great music you bring to us here in guitar land!!
Don't know about hand pains, but there's a video over on Andertons where his pinky cramps/spasms and it doesn't sound like the first time it's happened.
10:26 carnivool played that live before they played Goliath
SomeGuyNamedJohnny I saw that live video like 5 days ago, it’s so good! Bea actually commented on that video saying how awesome that chord progression is. I think he’s played it in another demo too, I just don’t know which one
That tone change at 10:45. Noice
Perfect video to wake up to on the day my Super Kraken comes in
Hit that second stage on channel 1 with a compressor & RC Booster I bet one could do some serious Country leads on this amps. Been searching for ever for an amp that has both killer clean and killer drive channels.
Sick LP!!!!!
Hi Rabea, Absolutely loving your sound and playing man, just amazing, so much I just purchased and received my first Victory Super Kraken VX100 down here in Melbourne, Australia. Very excited.
Question mate, the clean settings you have on the amp at the start of this vid, are they the ones you use to get that clean tones? I can't get a clean tone with those setting? Am I doing something wrong? I can get it clean on Gain 1? But not Gain 2. Please help. Hope your safe and well over there. All the best. Kind regards Trent
Dat LP
I really like Rabea`s playing, great tones. Someone could tell me please the settings of that delay? min 3:29
It sound´s great. I need to ask you a favor... can you record the output of the Victory VX100 without the cab or the cab simulation? the reason is to apply a EQ match and try to replicate the sound.
I agree
How many tones can one man make? The Fro
Exactly.
It sound incredible, Indeed! You should send one to Ola for another type of review! He said in one of his video that he would be really happy to try it! Thank for sharing..I always enjoy watching your video! Cheers!
WELCOME TO OLA TESTING SHIT, TODAYS SHIT IS THE VICTORY VX.....100...... uh.... SUPER KRAKEN.
How long have you had the Tele? Don't think I've seen it before, and it sounds great (especially with those beautifully eerie chord choices!)
Everyone's talking about the les Paul and I'm loving the Tele
Andrew Bailey I think he got it around New Years I think? He has a video on his channel about it, I remember enjoying it so I would recommend watching it!
Sounds great - some information about the used TAE settings would be much appreciated. I would also bet that the trebles and high mids in the EQ settings are massively turned up for the cleans. Which IR is being used?
Dont see him sweep that often but he does it great
Don't care about the amp, just here to listen to some Rabea doodling ;)
13:05 😉😉
Hi ! Great job!!! Thank you
I'd love to own an SK someday, but I'm afraid I'd also have to buy a Fryette PS-2 to go along with it to make it usable for home volume.
13:49 R.I.P Dimebag
At 12:44, sounds like Sambora in These Days album.
Sneaking in some Tool and a bit of Karnivool I see... good man 👍🏻
Notice how so many people say “the LP sounded so nice”
Or
“Man I love the tele through that amp”
The amp makes nothing.
It receives a signal from the player and the guitar and processes it out.
The tone comes from a combination of the player, instrument, amp, cab, speaker, environment.
A canvas with no paint is just an empty space waiting to display the art you have yet to lay upon it.
It sounds good though. You should try one
Rabea Massaad
I absolutely want to.
I have a tele myself and I’ve really been enjoying the sound you get with single coils through this amp.
Keep kicking ass brother
✌🏻❤️💪🏻
For beautiful clean to high gain rock n roll, does this still beat out the new Super Sheriff? hmmm... hard to pick a fave here.
Nice amp nice tones 🙌🏻😎👌🏻🔥🔥
I love your style of playing man have for a long time. Sounds incredible man. I’ve actually considered trying out a kraken I’ve been a Marshall dsl user for a long time now put some upgrades into mine in the tubes and the speaker though so it’s definitely a step up from the normal tones that are standard with the dsl but do they offer this amp with el34s or can you pretty much nail that tone as is with gain 1?
I wish i had the money... Damn, it sounds fantastic
This is the thing I've been trying to say wouldnbe cool for "sounds like" instead of changing rigs, see how many tones each rig can nail.
Point being Not everyone starts from scratch in a rig so if all they have is a Mashall DSL amp, can they sound like an American high gain or close to? Things like that. 6505 is the amp... Can you play acdc? Anyway could be cool
Holy shit! That LP sounds THICK!
