Versatile Tube Tone for Any Amplifier
Loaded with four preamp tubes and comprehensive tone-shaping capabilities, the Victory Amplification V4 The Jack tube preamp pedal is the perfect way to breathe new life into any amplifier. Use it as a powerful drive pedal in front of your amp in Standalone mode, or use it to replace your amp's preamp section entirely by running it into your effects loop return in Amp Through mode. However you use it, V4 The Jack's switchable clean and overdrive modes feature the same clear, articulate, and harmonically rich tones found in the V30 The Jack amplifier developed in collaboration with renowned guitarist Guthrie Govan. Whether you're recording direct or playing live, Victory Amplification's V4 The Jack tube preamp pedal gives you the touch sensitivity and glorious harmonic richness that will highlight every nuance of your performance.
From clean to mean and everything in between
Based on the V30 The Jack amp developed with Guthrie Govan, V4 The Jack offers an impressively wide sonic range to explore. The clean channel delivers remarkable clarity and articulation, with high headroom that allows you to play dynamically without unwanted breakup. The OD channel delivers all the gain you need for modern rock, generating plenty of grind and girth while maintaining definition. And thanks to per-channel master volume controls, it's simple to balance the level of your clean and OD channels.
Delivers authentic tube-fueled tone
While many overdrive pedals promise "genuine tube tone," they often rely on solid-state clipping, digital modeling, or some other sonic methodology to achieve their sound. V4 The Jack, on the other hand, is the real deal, sporting four actual vacuum tubes — an EC900 and three CV4014s — all running at high-plate voltage. Whether you put it on your pedalboard, on top of your amp, or on your desktop, the V4 will infuse every note you play with the true-to-life sound and response of a classic tube guitar amplifier.
2 ways to integrate with your amplifier
Guitarists at Sweetwater love sending preamp pedals like V4 The Jack directly into an amp's effects loop return, bypassing the preamp section to give the amp an entirely new character. For this, use V4 The Jack's Amp Through Mode, essentially adding two new channels to your favorite amp. But what if your amplifier doesn't have an effects loop? No matter — engage Standalone to use it like a drive pedal into your amp's front end.
