Why a Lion '68?
A real 1968 Marshall Super Lead is loud, heavy, and increasingly difficult to find in playable condition. Lion '68 delivers that exact tonal DNA at apartment-friendly volumes, with the option to run direct to interface or PA without any cabinet — making it as useful for studio sessions and silent practice as it is for live performance.
