The source link is all about Guthrie Govan speaking about and demonstrating Victory Amplifiers, his new endorsement. He Informs that the V30 The Countess was elaborated and created with his help, keeping in mind the traveling musician.
I only brought one on tour, if anyone’s curious, and it was the ash-bodied version which sounds a little Strat-ier through the Victory V30 head. And it’s the MKII V30, which has a little button on the back so you can switch between the new voicing and the old voicing. Mostly I was using the new voicing, which maybe sounds 10 percent more American to my ears, and a little differently focused in the midrange. But something like “Bonnie and Clyde” is the old voicing of that amp.
In 2021 Guitar World interview, Govan talks about the use of the amp in The Aristocrats' song, "When We All Come Together:
Amp-wise, that was just the clean channel of the Victory V30 head. The real secret weapon in that song was a bizarre instrument that I found lying around in the studio - I believe it was called a BilT Corvaire.
at 1:13 you can hear Guthrie joking about the fact the V10 is 10 watts. At 2:10 you can see at the bottom of the video that the V10 is being used. At 5:40 he tells about how he tinkers with the V10 at home and how he's trying to work that amp into his home recording routine.
