There are legends... many legends are ones that amount to nothing once you encounter them. Some are made up in the mind and are more mythological than real... but then there are the ones that prove what a true legend is all about. That's the case with the amazingly talented and extremely humble guitarist and close friend of the late Bob Marley, Junior Marvin. Born in Jamaica and raised in London, Junior has been an actor in movies like The Beatles' "HELP!" and the London production of "Hair" before siding up with Bob Marley and the Wailers in 1977. He is the sound of many great Reggae licks, from ‘One Love' and ‘Jamming', to ‘Stir It Up'. Junior is an innovator and legend in his own right.

Recently Junior changed up his gear to Visual Sound. Sporting the all-new V2 Comp 66, Route 808 and H2O -- all powered by the 1SPOT --Junior fell in love with what he has wanted more than anything, true great tone!

Though Visual Sound was not around in the days of Bob Marley and the Wailers, it's our privilege to hear those great licks and incredible songs being played through pedals that are legends themselves.
