«  SOLDANESQUE!! »

Published on 03/19/14 at 14:29
Value For Money : Poor
It's all tube 50watt, 2 power 5 preamp '

Simplissime, 2 channels, a crunch and overdrive

Based on Soldano circuit, designed by mr Soldano

Excellent build quality!

UTILIZATION

The knobs react immediately, and we as a Marshall can put everything thoroughly

SOUNDS

The sound is purely soldanesque!

We'll make it simple, this amp is for all those who seek his Soldano but do not necessarily have to put in euro 3000 a head.
This is the Chinese Soldano is not a copy. This is Mike Soldano behind

It goes from 3000 to 300, then, should not be simple-this is clearly the character and color of slo but it is not a slo.
If you swear by your big brand logo (which often ultimately does not make you a good guitarist, but just a guy who has the gear expensive to play in his room) on your way

If you dream of slo and that off-budget solution is. It is biting, it's full of harmonic marshall. This amp puts a slap!

For the metal it also works a booster type tube screamer and is immersed in the high gain!

A treat! But beware I repeat, this is very typical Soldano


Brief sound there's Youtube, over this amp is a joy for modders, there are plenty of different Modds findable on the net, simple lamp change to Modified approach for the SLO

Go for it

OVERALL OPINION

Quibbles:

Choose well the cab is 50% of your sound

This head is sensitive to the cab, tested on a Marshall 4x12 1960 it was not bad on a 4x12 Marshall AVT was blah and I opted for a 2x12 Engl E212 in vintage30 + G12T75 and it is a pure happiness!

According to test 212 jet city found in eminence sounds really good and is intended for.

Finally, hard to find used, when one has a (tt time out on thoto) on the guard, and at this price it is not risk as extra amp is perfect as for amp principal. It is well made it is not junk or bugera.
If not careful, it rocks 50 watt is unusable in the apartment or even house, I play less than 1 and the sweet pot is around 5, an attenuator is needed as all the above 15watt amp for THE its.
Luckily jet city sells the cheapest in the market jettenuator attenuator.

I not the pub, it's just that mike Soldano created by a truly scratch mark in the mind, like custom 77 for example, cheap stuff that sounds really good and made with the right tools and clearly open the mod (there modifit himself on Youtube).
