Warranty
All Victory products come with a 5-year limited warranty. This covers any defects in
manufacturing or faulty components. Normally, we warranty valves, (tubes) for 90 days
in line with all other valve amplifier brands for guitar and HiFi.
However, the valves used in your new V4 Series preamp pedal were originally
manufactured to NATO specifications. Due to the extremely high-quality construction and
proven reliability, Victory have taken the unprecedented step of extending the warranty
of these from 90 days to 2 years. They were designed to have a minimum life-span of
6000 hours which, if used for 2 hours every day, equates to over 8 years use.
The warranty is also transferable to a new owner in the unusual event that you wish to
sell your Victory equipment.
Valve Story:
For those that are interested, the 3 CV4014 valves in your pedal were manufactured in
1981 in the Mullard factory in Mitcham, Surrey, England for the British Ministry of
Defence. They were shipped to the Royal Navy Supply Depot at Spring Quarry in Wiltshire
where they have been stored in a climate-controlled atmosphere deep underground for
the past four decades. This depot is part of the vast underground cold-war nuclear bunker
facility which thankfully was never needed and has just been an extremely expensive
place to keep these valves very safe, just waiting for us to design products around them
Please contact your local dealer if you have any issues with your Victory product. Victory
are setting up Official Service Centres around the world so please check on the Victory
website to see where your nearest centre is located. These will have original Victory
spare parts including the recommended valves for your amplifier direct from the Victory
