Gibson Victory Dark Walnut Satin Electric Guitar

Full Description

Reimagined 80s design

The Gibson Victory Dark Walnut Satin Electric Guitar brings an iconic '80s design into the present with refined modern touches. Its double-cut mahogany body has been reshaped for improved balance and comfort, making it ideal for long sessions on stage or in the studio. The satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only gives it a sleek, understated aesthetic but also allows the wood to breathe and age naturally over time. With the addition of an Explorer-style headstock, the Victory stands out visually while paying homage to its original form. This is a guitar that captures retro flair while meeting the needs of today’s guitarist.

High-performance playability

Designed for speed and control, the Victory features a 25.5" scale length paired with a SlimTaper mahogany neck that feels instantly playable. The ebony fretboard is not only smooth and elegant but also contributes to a tighter, more focused attack. Its compound radius ensures a consistent feel—flatter up top for comfortable bends and more curved near the nut for easy chord work. With 24 medium jumbo frets, you have complete access to two full octaves, making it perfect for technically demanding styles or expressive solo work.

Advanced tonal flexibility

At the heart of the Victory's sound are two 80s Tribute humbuckers, designed to deliver rich, powerful tones reminiscent of the original era. What sets this model apart is its cleverly designed control layout. The master volume and tone knobs each feature push/pull functions—one for coil-splitting and the other for inner/outer coil selection. This setup offers a wide range of sounds from fat humbucker warmth to sharp single-coil clarity, all without adding unnecessary complexity. Combined with a three-way toggle switch, you can move seamlessly through genres and styles with just a few quick adjustments.

Reliable hardware and protection

Every detail on the Victory has been selected for reliability and tone. The Tune-O-Matic bridge and aluminium Stop Bar tailpiece offer solid intonation and excellent sustain, while the Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners ensure smooth, precise tuning stability. The black top hat knobs, black mounting rings, and chrome hardware round out the aesthetic with a clean, modern edge. Supplied with a Gibson hardshell case and accessory kit, it’s ready to travel from rehearsal to recording sessions or live shows without compromise.
