Want to plug into some legendary British crunch? If so, plug into the Universal Audio UAFX Lion ’68 Super Lead Amp pedal. It serves up one of the most realistic emulations of the legendary Super Lead we’ve ever heard here at Sweetwater. Moreover, this stompbox is really three amps in one: a Super Lead, a Super Bass, and the coveted Variac’d “brown” sound that erupted in the late 1970s. You also get three speaker options. You’ll be blown away at how closely the Lion re-creates the sound of a cranked tube amp recorded in a live room, thanks to UA’s unparalleled mic, cab, and Dynamic Room Modeling technology. Further, like all the pedals in UA’s UAFX series, the Lion allows you to bypass your amplifier’s preamp when the pedal is engaged via the special “4-cable” mode. If you’re craving greater control, the Lion sports Bluetooth compatibility to connect to Universal Audio’s UAFX app to edit hidden parameters and access artist presets. Finally, the Lion ’68 Super Lead also boasts state-of-the-art analog and digital circuitry, analog dry-through, and a high-quality buffered bypass.
