Can't speak for the 68 vibrolux, only played on a reissue, but I have a 70's twin. It's an exceptionally clean sounding amp, but they are heavy and can be very loud. Biggest difference to me is the power, vibrolux 40 watts 70's twin between 100 and 135 depending on the year. I never got a chance to crank the RI vibrolux, but if you're looking for any kind of breakup that might be the better choice. Twins are great amps but they are really loud before you can get any kind of overdrive breakup, but they were designed to be clean sounding. They do take effects nice though, a twin with a good distortion pedal can give a wide range of sounds. Hope this helped.
Happy Holidays

I had an original 64 Vibrolux (stolen not sold) and have a 76 SF Twin (100 watt master volume), The Vibrolux was much more useful. The Twin is loud, clean and heavy. Tons of headroom. Personally for blues, the Vibrolux was much better and a Deluxe Reverb would be even better.
