Victory V40 The Duchess (Compact)

Valves for Victory V40 “The Duchess” amplifiers.

The Victory V40 “The Duchess” amplifier uses 5 valves to achieve its awesome tone:

2 x ECC83 (also called 12AX7) preamp valves.
1 x Balanced ECC83 for the phase inverter (in position V3).
2 x EL34 matched power valves/power tubes.

Please Note: There are three Victory amplifiers with the V40 name and they all need different valve sets:

V40 “The Duchess” (which uses 5 valves).
There’s the V40 Deluxe Heritage Series (which uses 6 valves).
Finally, the V40 Deluxe Classic (which uses 8 valves).

Over time your valves will lose their tone and their power. A brand new set of valves will get your amp sounding like new again. We always recommend JJ valves for Victory V40 “The Duchess” amplifier. This is because they guarantee you get an awesome tone and long life and they don’t cost a fortune.

What Victory say about the amp:

“This single-channel valve amp is all about maximum tone with minimum confusion. It is housed in the same light and portable chassis as our award-winning V30 The Countess.

Voice 1 offers mid-’60-type American warm clean tones. Voice II is subtly stronger and more ’50s in character. As you push the gain and engage the Mid-Kick function, the V40 takes on a more ’60s British voice. So it’s perfect for timeless blues-rock tones. All the time the V40 responds to your guitar, responds to you: it’s one for the ‘feel’ players”.
