Guthrie Govan presented a superb clinic for Victory Amplification in June 2014. This video contains highlights from his performance, plus interview footage with Guthrie and Martin Kidd, chief designer for Victory Amps. Daniel Steinhardt of TheGigRig also explains how the four amps are connected up for the performance.
During the clinic, Guthrie played four Victory amps: V10 The Baron, V30 The Countess, V50 The Earl and V100.
All the main guitar parts that you hear and see Guthrie playing were recorded live on the night, using one Shure SM57 and one SE R1 ribbon mic. There are no additional drive or distortion pedals, and no messing or fixing of the audio. It's just Guthrie's guitar, played live on the night, over Guthrie's own backing arrangements to his tracks: Sevens, Wonderful Slippery Thing, Waves and Ner Ner. These tracks are from Guthrie's album Erotic Cakes.

More than anything this video reminds me of one very important fact. Whether you are Steve Vai, Guthrie Govan, Stevie Ray Vaughn, BB King or any other celebrated guitarist. Without the dedication and hard work of the engineers and designers who produce the amplification, effects and instruments, people like Martin Kidd, then there wouldn't be the music we love (regardless of genre or style). Hats off to all the engineers over the years they are the true unsung heroes of rock.

@@classicartfoundation639 No. He's got huge chops maybe the best in the scene. What makes him the best is the combination of sheer knowledge, musicality and technicality. He hears the music he wants to play in his head and he instantly transfers it to his instrument without facing any technical or musical barriers. He's as complete as a musician can get on one instrument.

Guthrie's a lovely down-to-earth guy who on first appearances looks a little like 'Aqualung' until you put a guitar in his hands, then realisation rapidly sets in that appearances are deceptive and he's divinely-inspired. Daniel Steinhardt of 'TheGigRig' has an incredible channel on KZfaq, I've learned so much from him for free over the past week or so in terms of setting-up my amp and pedal-board. It's lovely to see talented, open people come together in situations like this to demonstrate quality musical equipment. Great video, thank you.

after watching Guthrie for several years, and being a pro player myself, I just wonder what he thinks of the negative criticism. its a shame that people are being killed in the world, and serious stuff is happening, yet we are taking a player like guthrie and slating him for just being Guthrie. he IS what he IS. he is a guitarist of great ability and musicianship, and he wants to create as much music for the people that like him, as long as he can I guess. I'm sure he's had every kind of label thrust onto him good and bad, and I bet it does get to him in some way, nobody hates to be negative, but he's not trying to convince anybody of who he is, you can see he loves playing, and surely that is enough?

I was blown away by the clean sound of the V100. Unbelievable for an amp that cranks so well to have a clean sound like that. Guthrie's playing is probably the world standard for technical excellence at the moment, and he is very creative and musically intelligent. I haven't heard much of his music. There seems to be a lot in every piece. He's one of those players who plays "a lot of guitar" in Wes Montgomery's phrase. As a creator of great musical ideas, I wouldn't put him in the class of Joe Satriani, but listening to him is listening to a first class musical mind, that's for sure.

To be fair, I do agree that the clean tone from 'Wonderful Slippery Thing' was slightley less wet (rather than dry) compared to the studio version. Still, comparing a live situation with a studio set up may be a bit unfair, cuz it probably is significantly harder to get best of both worlds (tone and the overall balance) in live situation, especially when he is supposed to be switching from 10W to 100W.

Man I love Waves! Sound has a lot to do with your pickups. I know some will disagree, but good pickups will make your guitar sound way different than stock pickups. A way bigger difference in sound than aftermarket speakers or even an amp. You can get this same sound by using Dimarzio pickups. A PAF Pro in the neck and a Fred in the bridge, preferably in a solid mahogany body. Classic Ibanez JS series setup. This sound is very dry and straight forward just like Joe Satriani. Or just be cool and get the amp, but don't get upset when your guitar sounds different through the amp because of your pickups!

Look at it realistically kids. A good amp has a kind of transparency that allows the sound of your guitar and style to transmitted into the airwaves free of any unintended frequencies or coloration. With this in mind remember that Guthrie will sound like Guthrie and you will sound like you (not Guthrie) The point again,approach this with a clear and realistic sensibility,don'y expect sonic miracles or to sound suddenly like someone else and enjoy hearing you being you..
