Product Description
The MK Overdrive celebrates the company’s 10-year anniversary with the ultimate valve-powered overdriven amplifier, designed by amplification legend Martin Kidd & hand-built in the UK. Victory’s ethos for the MK amps is simple: Can we make the ultimate amps, with no constraints on time, price, and materials?
The starting point for the voicing of this amp was Kidd’s legendary Cornford MK50; this has evolved exponentially into a powerful, responsive, and – when needed – aggressive amplifier that cements Victory’s place among the British amplification greats.
Expect the full range of overdriven tone, from hot blues leads to thrash-metal-ready distortion that takes zero prisoners – embellished by a wealth of controls for fast & effective tonal customisation.
Adorned with the finest Scottish leather and assembled by hand, this particular MK Overdrive has been spec’d up by the Andertons team in an alluring Burgundy finish with black metal & leather detailing.
Key Features
- The Ultimate Versatile Overdrive Amplifier – Versatile with enough crunch to suit whatever flavour of gain, with a flexible Clean channel that’s ideal for taking pedals.
- 2 Channel Design – Use Gain 1 for Crunch and Rhythm sounds, while Gain 2 provides full-on saturated overdrive.
- Dual Resonance, Presence, and EQ Controls – Enjoy all-encompassing sonic customisation at your fingertips with dedicated controls per voice, per channel.
- Luxurious Aesthetics – Decorated with Muirhead Scottish Leather with matching corners and front panel, this amp is a true work of art.
- Matching Cabinet - The Andertons team has worked with Victory to spec a matching cab for this head, right here.
The Legendary Martin Kidd
Martin Kidd made his first guitar amp in the early 1990s. Since then, he’s gone on to become one of the most influential & important British amp designers of the last 30 years, both as chief designer for Victory & Cornford Amplification, and consulting for brands like Fortin, Ampeg & PRS. Now you too can own a piece of British amp history!
Clean & Overdriven Voicings
It might be called ‘Overdrive’, but this premium piece of amplification art is a truly formidable guitar tone toolbox.
The ‘Clean Voice’ and ‘Overdrive Voice’ controls ensure that, whichever channel you’re using, you have two distinct tonal characteristics to play with. Flicking the switch while on the Clean channel gives you a more pronounced upper-midrange, while the Overdrive Voice switch adds a slight brightness & gain boost that’s perfect for saturated lead playing.
The Design Process
From the concept stage through to production, every component and fitting is designed to not just get the very best sound from an amplifier – but to provide a luxurious experience.
Each MK amp is decorated with the finest material from Muirhead Scottish Leather, world-renowned providers of upholstery and leather goods for the likes of Aston Martin, Land Rover, and The Orient Express.
All audio components are fitted with gold-plated foundations to keep things cool and reliable, while the specially-selected valves are fitted with premium sockets to ensure a long, tonally-rich lifespan.
Kidd even customised each transformer, built in the UK by Demeter, to significantly enhance the response of the MK Overdrive.
Premium Perspex Sheet
A bespoke Victory perspex sheet is included to place between head and cabinet to protect the leather.
