5 hour compilation of John Browne playing on various amps needs to be a thing that goes viral

I love how much the sound of the actual string comes through even with a dose of gain. It's a pretty articulate amp. I like it a lot. 🙂

This for my ear literally sounds like of marshall made a modern metal amp. I agree it sounds awesome.

Nice Gojira hoodie. And holy hell that amp.

best amp ever brought absolutrly unreal the amount of tone shaping you can do with this amp on its own and with external even more so!havent even got to the midi part yet!

This thing is nuts, you can really hear the dynamics of your playing through any setting. Absolute attack when you dig in and massive bloom when you were picking through the chords.

Johns riffs are so fing catchy. First time I ever saw him rip with the guitar was in ola's helix stomp video. Since then, I've honestly been hooked. I just started getting back into guitar after a 10+ year break, and what keeps me motivated are the tunes that John comes up with. I am lucky to have stumbled upon his videos because they really inspire me to play the guitar a lot more. Thanks John for the quality content and amazing riffage.

Absolutely love Victory amps! The Kraken is my favorite amp at the moment as it's just massive! I currently own the Kraken 50w VX, Sheriff 44 and the BD1 and they're all great.

It sounds amazing, I had the small 50 watts version. Not sure if someone already said it but this amp is actually based on the 5150 and the Marshall JVM410 not the JCM800.

@gkswift1999

Жыл бұрын

Nope. Rabea and Martin Kidd (Engineer/Owner of Victory) both said they used Rabea's '92 5150 and his JCM 900. Its easy to see how one would guess the JVM410, as its got a 900 circuit tone to it.

really sick amp, loved hearing a similar, but very different player really putting it through its paces. it’s definitely on my radar.

I love mine. You've really captured how this amp sounds in person

Always fun watching you play.

The beginning was the perfect "Queens of the stone age" "No one knows" tone.

Great demo! I got mine 2 or 3 weeks ago, and it's a killer amp. Can't wait to get out of lockdown and drag it to band practice!!!

I always love a Browne demo, the heaviest clean sounds in the business 😂 on a serious note, great demo, great amp 👌

Wow that thing sounds awesome, nice demo!

Sounded amazing bro . I adore my super kraken head. It’s up there with my all time favorite amps ive owned or played .highly recommend.

Beast! Monster sound in such a small unit. Great vid! 🤘

Damn, watching and listening through headphones felt like I was there when you cranked it up. Love the Amp and that Duvell is funny just watched your Master of Puppets play through yesterday with that same Duvell. Now a Gojira hoodie after the Tool one. You have some good taste my friend.

I cannot get enough of Browne’s playing, so interesting!

Dude. That thing sounds amazing.

John seemed to have the same fun with this as his had with the SL-100 unit hehe

I always love coming back to old vids where I notice john playing riffs from unreleased songs at the time. 5:36

Sounds ... kraken-y. And your technique is mesmerizing as ever, sir.

I hear a lot of the Soldano SLO in here as well, similar tones to Rabea's demo. He loved the SLO, so not surprising to hear some overlap. Duvell too, lot of similarly good stuff going on.

At 8:14 WOW! 🙌🏻. Just huge Body and mids. Love the demo

+1 to a collab with bea. While both of you are amazing players: your rhythm playing is super tight and Bea rocks saggy metal tones like I’ve never seen before. It would be awesome to see how you two would jam/improv together!

the look on Browne's face after "because their serial number system meant that they didn't keep dates." priceless

The beak on that supa squid got a heavy bite

Damn, that thing sounds great.

DAMN, what a fantastic distortion.

Oh my days that sounds GLORIOUS! Excellent playing man and lovely sound capture. Big fan of the tone! Important question though, is this the EL34 or the 6v6 version? Not sure if you said but would be much appreciated if you could tell me :)

God damn! Well I know what my big purchase of 2021 is already...

I have this amp. Love it

I just watched the entire video because the guitar riffs are freakin amazing lol

cool riffs mate love this amp and im getting it 100w rulez

Would love a head to head with this amp and the Peavey Invective! No additional pedals though... Just the amps!

sounds sooooo good

Sounds great. I have the 50w version and I love it!

happy new year

Killer sounding! 🤘

The dream metal amp!!

Outstanding

That actually does sound great

It's been very Yorkshire weather in the Midlands too 😎

Best Show on YT

oh my god. ferocious.

6:29 Let's flick the crunch switch! *High Gain Goodness*

This amp is sick. To my ears it's an evolutio of the Sum41 sound. They used to blend Marshalls with an SLO. For me the Kraken does the same but with a slightly modern gain that's not as gainy sounding as a 5150, but rather raw and barky.

honestly that might be one of the best tube amps i've ever heard. it's tight but it has depth and is not sterile. a lot of modern amps are fatiguing to the ear to me. like, they sound good for a short time, then they just get annoying.

19:05 - Missed a golden opportunity to say "you did a Kraken job.' Excellent video nonetheless.

I own one and it sound insane

5:36 If this doesn't make it into a Monuments song, I'm suing! As always, pleasant playing John! What's the secret sauce you use to achieve those high pitched electric squeaks?

What tuning are you in here John? Love your playing as per

Hey man! Nice stuff. Question tho... would you rather have the super kraken, or a FRYETTE deliverance 120??

Gojira was using Peavey for years. Im gonna check out this amp more,Victory.

Great job man, how am I just hearing about you now? Insta like and sub...

Please do a review of Kraken Pedal as well!

Are you going to try the kraken pedal? Great tone when you try your pedals in front!

GASing for this with a victory 2x12. I like how warm and thick it sounds compared to the ice pick high end of a 5150.

Save some riffs for us Browne!

Nice amp, nice playing \m/ John, your voice through the mic was a bit quiet.

Hey John! If you've got time, could you then take the H&K Black Spirit 200 for a spin soon? It's been some time since it release, but does it still kick ass?

Glad you reviewed this amp, i think it's honestly one of the most underrated metal amps out there. Since its release i haven't seen it on youtube too much. But i have used it as main amp since its release and it's just so versatile and good soiunding every step of the way. My only gripe with it is taht i would probably have liked a presence knob, but that's about all the complaints i have.

Did it have el34 or 6l6?

Your riffs are fuckin SICK

Whats your opinion on the P-rails?

Do you think tis amp were versatile enough for most music genre besides metal? Im pretty interested in this amp because it got small head than others 100watter... Do u ever try the 50 watt version? Wanna know ur opinion of that version too because its the only version of kraken available in my country 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ 🍻🍻🍻🍻 and like always amazing playing and tone

Do you like the Super Kraken or the TC-100 better?

John is slowly morphing into Brian Eschbach.

I don't really get what you mean when you say the 5150 sounds slow. Slow like how a digital amp feels? I never felt that about mine and have went through a few amps. I tend to like a bright amp sound bc my pickups are pretty dark so I mostly love it for how bright it gets when u crank the presence.

Rabea is fuckin super sick💯🙌🏾

Does anyone tune their guitars above C sharp anymore?

I thought the tones were great, very aggressive without being abrasive. It sounds sort of unforgiving, like there’s a precision or maybe transparency that doesn’t help hide mistakes. For some players that’s a plus, for others maybe not so much? I might be a bit too sloppy to really love this amp. But in the right hand, obv, it’s terrific.
