Experience the iconic plexi tones that powered rock – now in a plug-in

Lion '68 Super Lead perfectly models the legendary 1968 British 100W amplifier that defined rock's golden era. UA's circuit-accurate emulation captures every nuance of the original's four-input design, including power tube sag that responds to playing dynamics and interactive tone stack behavior. The plugin features three custom cabinet IRs (including a rare 4x12" with Greenbacks) and real-time bias control for fine-tuning harmonic richness. Whether tracking through UAD DSP or mixing in your DAW, Lion delivers the explosive clean-to-crunch range that powered classic recordings from Led Zeppelin to Van Halen.
