This Victory Active SBK is a serious contender for metalheads and hard rock players on a budget. The mahogany body gives it a thick, powerful tone, and those active pickups really deliver the high-gain crunch you're after. It’s a solid instrument, but be prepared for a bit of heft.

Frequently Asked Questions
Active pickups inherently have more noise than passive, but the HBZ pickups are relatively well-shielded for their type. Expect some hum, especially at high gain levels.
The neck has a satin finish which is generally smooth and comfortable, but some users find that new necks can feel slightly sticky initially – a little oil or lemon oil can remedy this.
The nut width is around 42mm (1.65 in), and the string spacing at the bridge is fairly standard for a guitar of this style. Players with larger fingers might find it a little snug, but manageable.
