“Just like driving a Plexi Super Lead flat out, but accessible at lower volume levels – and won’t cause permanent ear damage”: Universal Audio UAFX Lion ’68 Super Lead Amp review

Universal Audio UAFX Lion '68.

The Marshall JMP model 1959 Super Lead produced from the late ’60s through the early ’70s is a bucket list amp for many guitarists. 

This was the guitar amp that defined the sounds of early hard rock, including Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton with Cream, Billy Gibbons with early ZZ Top, Van Halen, AC/DC, the Ramones (the latter two during their classic mid-to late-’70s era) and countless other acts. Unfortunately, obtaining the real deal is an unlikely prospect for all.
