Vintage British amp tone and feel from modeling the world's most iconic guitar amps.

The UAD Lion 68 Super Lead amp plug-in brings the inspiring tone of three legendary 100W plexi heads to your DAW. Built on UADFX pedal modeling, the Lion 68 provides the gorgeous cleans, aggressive distortion and hot-rodded tones that shaped the sound of rock. With six classic speaker cabinets and perfectly placed studio mics, you'll capture the studio tones of famous recordings. The Lion 68 gives you tried-and-true boosts to take your tone further, including emulations of a Maestro EP-III preamp and Boss GE-10 EQ.

Plug Into Legendary Super Lead Sound

The Lion 68 faithfully emulates a vintage Super Lead head, giving you tones that electrify. From bell-like cleans to searing leads, the Super Lead channel provides the tone that defined rock. The Lion 68 captures every nuance of this iconic amp, letting you experience its raw power.

Explore a Hot-Rodded Classic With the "Brown" Channel

The "brown sound" of Van Halen inspired generations of guitarists. The Lion 68's "Brown" channel emulates a voltage-starved Super Lead and mixed 4x12 cabinet for the sizzle, midrange and string definition behind Eddie Van Halen's tone. From hot-rodded cleans to all-out distortion, the "Brown" channel lets you channel your inner shredder.

Find Vintage Versatility With the Super Bass Channel

The Lion 68's Super Bass channel provides the spongy attack and clean headroom of a vintage Super Bass amp. Reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix's tone, the Super Bass channel gives you a jaw-dropping emulation of this plexi classic. With more clean headroom and less aggression than the Super Lead or "Brown" channels, the Super Bass channel offers vintage versatility.

Create Your Sound With Classic Speaker and Mic Pairings

The Lion 68 gives you six classic speaker cabinets with studio mics for the tones of famous recordings. From "Stripped" 4x12s with Greenbacks to 4x12s with JBLs, you'll find the perfect cabinet for your needs. Pair the speaker cabs with a condenser, dynamic or ribbon mic for ultimate tone shaping. The Lion 68 lets you craft studio-quality tones without setting up a single mic.
