The Victory The Jack V30 (V30 MKII) 42W Amplifier Head is a compact, high-performance tube head that delivers true amp-like tone in a “flying amp” form factor. Voiced for clarity, touch sensitivity and musical response, The Jack covers everything from pristine, high-headroom cleans to crunchy edge-of-breakup tones and aggressive overdrive, making it ideal for gigging players, studio work, and anyone who needs a powerful yet portable tube rig.
This two-channel, three-mode head features a versatile Clean channel with a footswitchable Crunch mode and a driven OD channel that offers rich harmonic content and snarling midrange. The V30 also includes High/Low power modes so you can access full 42W output for stage use or drop to lower wattage for bedroom or studio levels while maintaining the character of the amp.
Built around an all-tube topology (four 12AX7 preamp tubes and two 6L6 power tubes as standard) with the option to switch power valves to EL34 voicing, The Jack delivers authentic tube warmth and dynamic feel. Practical gigging features include a switchable NoMod (Nomod) bass function for two levels of low-end response, a serial effects loop, multiple speaker outputs (4/8/16 Ω), external footswitch jacks, a rugged skeletonised metal chassis with rubber handle, and a padded carry bag for transport.
Despite its compact dimensions and lightweight design, The Jack is built for road life and quick dialing on stage. If you want a full-sized tube sound without hauling a heavyweight head, the Victory The Jack V30 gives you tonal depth, flexible voicing and touring-grade reliability in a highly portable package.
