A Legendary Amp For a Reason

Soldano SLO-100Published on 07/18/18 at 11:42
Mike Soldano builds wonderful products. The SLO is a legend for a reason....killer tones and robust build quality. In recent years I've owned Soldano SLOs (2), Soldano Hot Rod 50, Bogner Ecstasy, Carvins, Peaveys, etc and can attest that every amp has valuable tones. Not better or worse, just different. The SLO is an amp voiced mid-high. Without the depth control, some feel it is a very trebly amp, to which I agree. If you love mid-high voicing, you will love the SLO. If you are a fan of mid-low voiced amps like the Bogner or many Carvins, the SLO may appeal to you less...and vice versa. My point is....no 1 amp will ever be everything to everyone. Soldano products are held in high regard...…

The SLO is an amp voiced mid-high. Without the depth control, some feel it is a very trebly amp, to which I agree. If you love mid-high voicing, you will love the SLO. If you are a fan of mid-low voiced amps like the Bogner or many Carvins, the SLO may appeal to you less...and vice versa. My point is....no 1 amp will ever be everything to everyone. Soldano products are held in high regard because they are so clean, even on the high gain lead channels. Big, bold, clean, & articulate. Even with the gain on 10, if you play a chord, you hear every note ring out! They are wonderfully clear and articulate. Makes you a cleaner player, no fuzz or muddiness to hide behind. The clean channel has been called sterile by many and not particularly warm. Again, it's very clear and articulate which probably isn't "warm" like say an EL84 amp which always have the most warm clean tones (but not the articulation of the SLO). So, again, every amp brings different tones and strengths. Value the SLO for what it is (a mid-high lead amp with wonderful tones) and you will love it. Just don't expect this, or any amp, to be the end all-be all for all possible tones. That's why the pros have 20 amps, they all do something different!

Soldano SLO 100

Soldano SLO-100Published on 03/20/05 at 15:00
I got it at Hot Licks Guitars, Aiea, HI (where I work) for $2450.00

This is THE amp. It's got a decent clean channel and loads of gain in the driven side. It's running my favorite tubes ... 5881's.

Look at what I paid for it. Do you honestly think I would've bought it at that price if there was something I didn't like about it? Well... it was expensive, but when you hear the sustain from this thing you mortgage your house and rent out your kids.

It's made to endure world wars 3, 4, and 5. A straight ahead amp with loads of tone and sustain, more gain than you could ever need and a killer tech support team to match. Somebody had pulled the effects loop from mine and Mike Soldano...…

It's made to endure world wars 3, 4, and 5. A straight ahead amp with loads of tone and sustain, more gain than you could ever need and a killer tech support team to match. Somebody had pulled the effects loop from mine and Mike Soldano himself said send it in and he would rectify that. You don't get that kind of service often. Lifetime transferable warranty. They know they made it good. They are not afraid.

I've gone through tons of amps in my short life in search of that killer tone that couldn't possibly be beat. I played one note through this thing and it went for 15 seconds without losing anything. I thought it was harmonic feed back so I bent it and unbent it several times. In the end I held that beautiful note for a minute fifteen seconds. I was shaking and my heart was racing the rest of the day. I forgot to get my paycheck. My search for the ultimate tone is over. Strat, Les Paul, 5 dollar special, it doesn't matter. This amp makes them all sound like pro instruments.
