Description

The list of users of the Soldano SLO 100 is not only extensive but very select. From John Mayer to Gary Moore or John Frusciante, although probably his most notable user is Eddie Van Halen. And this is not hard to believe when you note this amplifier has set the standard for modern high-gain amplification..

The new Soldano Super Lead Overdrive 100 delivers upon the “SLO’s” legendary reputation in both appearance and performance but with the addition of some wildly popular, player-requested features. The Depth control in now standard on the SLO-100. The combination of the Depth and Presence controls provides a powerful EQ section that goes well beyond a typical tone stack, enhancing the tonal possibilities of the amp’s sonic character.

It also features a newly designed ultra-transparent tube-buffered effects loop handles anything from vintage pedals to high-powered rack units. For tube purists who prefer straightforward amp tone, a hardwire bypass switch is included allowing you to completely remove the effects loop from the circuitry. The new return level control can be used to set up two foot-switchable, preset volume levels.

The new SLO-100 features modern grounding, a DC based filament circuit and circuit separation to avoid crosstalk between the channels resulting in an excellent signal-to-noise ratio without altering the amp’s pure tone.

The new Soldano SLO-100 is the perfect combination of iconic design, impeccable craftsmanship and modern performance.  Every detail of the original head’s design being accounted for with extreme attention to tone, detail and quality.  Mike Soldano created his legendary masterpiece to be the best and most versatile amplifier in the world. Listen to believe.

    I dreamt to own a SLO100 for years, but couldn’t get my hands on one. Finally my dream came to reality! What to say, sounds and feels outstanding, so much more alive and present than my other amps, and I have many of them. (Friedman BE100 Deluxe, Friedman BE100, Diezel VH4, PRS Archon 100, Engl SE670, Marshall JVM410…) When I first got the amp, there was a problem with the power tube, but great guys from Fanatic Guitars were great about it and secured me a quad of new tubes. Thanks Jon! So if any problem, the guys from FG got your back!

    – Sobre el amplificador, los comentarios están de más. El mejor ampli que he probado. No importa si estás en el canal clean, crunch u overdrive, deja muy atrás a cualquiera de su segmento.
    El Mesa dual rectifier y mi EVH 5150III se van a la bodega.

    – El circuito reductor de ruido es simplemente de otro planeta, con el gain sobre el 50% en canal overdrive, el ruido es prácticamente marginal a la potencia de salida. (no llegué al 100% porque temí volarme la cabeza).

    – Vale cada Euro que no son pocos, pero es un equipo que dura toda la vida. La construcción es muy robusta, elegante, y simple de operar.

    – Con respecto a la experiencia de compra pre y post venta, todo fluyó muy bien, Xavier de Fanatic Guitars atendió rápidamente todas mis preguntas y requerimientos. Me dio la impresión de que no duermen, porque con seis horas de diferencia horaria, cada email que envié fue respondido con rapidez. 11 puntos de 10. Algo importante que suma el punto adicional al 10, es que acá el precio era menor a otros distribuidores de la marca.

    – El despacho si bien se realizó al otro lado del mundo (literalmente), fue rápido y sin contratiempos. Tenía mis dudas de comprar considerando el viaje y el valor del equipo, pero llegó en perfecto estado en menos de diez días.

    En resumen, feliz con la experiencia de compra; pagué menos que en otros comercios y con un excelente servicio, y feliz con este monstruo de amplificador; si tienes el dinero, cómpralo hoy. Es un misil.
