Been gigging this amp and it is so sweet. Plenty of oomph just through the cab with a drummer in medium sized clubs. Cuts through thr mix smoothly. Just some scary language in the manual about using the DI that no one addresses online. If you want to go cabless, you must turn the master to 0 AND unlpug speakers or you kill the amp. Apparently you can run the di into a board live and still use the speaker. But the manual is maddeningly vague about this. Needs a bypass switch or sonething to make it foolproof.
What’s blows me away about this amp is how I can get just about any amp sound I have in my head, and it will do it. Everything from a Bassman to a Plexi to a Bogner. And of course the classic SLO sound for less than half the price of an SLO100. And it reacts fantastic to pedals. Such a great amp.
It's telling when we aren't even two minutes into the video and you're already getting the stank face! What a glorious time to be a guitarist, so much cool gear out there...can you imagine if we'd had even half of this stuff when we were kids???
That amp sounds amazing! Always had a soft spot for the Soldano sound. Tones were great, a usable clean channel and 20 watts is perfect for recording. What's not to like?! Legend playing as well too man 🤘🎸
Sounds great! I think the only thing they dropped the ball on is the shared 3 band eq. If they could have implemented a way to recall independent eq settings with each channel, that would have been an instant buy in my book. They already loaded this bad boy with most modern day needs, that would have been the icing on the cake.
Really cool amp and great playing as well! You know how to handle that amp. Of course, it's a Soldano. I could say a thousand things about it now why this amp doesn't do it for me, but for now I'm glad there is something new from Soldano with a peek into the future.
Obviously a killer 20 watter Soldano does not make any bad amps ! Would love to A/B it up against the Friedman JEL 20. That is another 20 watter that is insanely good!
@@LeonTodd Yeah i hope you are to check one out. I think you would really love it. Great modded by jose old vintage Marshall tone. and it does the old 800 excellent.
I don’t know what you’re doing with your own IR but it’s vastly superior to the factory loaded IRs. I noticed the same thing with your ISP theta review, it’s not veiled like factory settings.
Picked up one of these this week from a local shop. I've been using my keeley red dirt mini but I will have to try my SD1 in front. Glorious sounds from this Astro 20. Looks like you're doing what I'm trying with my presets. One gain is set around 11 o'clock and the other is around 2 o'clock. I have button 1 on the lower gain blue, button 2 on a higher gain blue, button 3 on the higher gain purple and button 4 on the lower gain red. Red galaxy with gain at 11 o'clock and boosted gets into some nice grind and punchy palm mute thuds for metal. Even with the high gain with this amp there's so much clarity and note separation. Lower gain blue is a little crunchy but cleans up easy with the volume knob so it's as clean as I need it to be :)
very cool stuff, thanks for showing this Leon, nice to see more amps feature load/DI sorts of features, and congrats for getting first peeks/reviews at this sort of gear
How this Soldano Astro-20 watts compare with the EVH 5150iii 50 watts? Next question: in a live gig at a medium-size pub with a loud drummer and NO mic on my speakers, could this Soldano Astro-20 watts keep up with a loud drummer in terms of volume?
I have a mate with a 50 watt EVH combo I've been meaning to borrow, that would be a fun comparison. Really hard to say whether it's loud enough as it's so dependent on other factors.
Now this is the only review for this , everyone knows you love the Hotrod 50 and use it in a live context and rate the Jet City amps too so you know what it must do (in the real world)
I bet it’ll sell well but not what I’m looking for. I’ve got no interest in smaller amps, they just don’t have the depth and power in the low end which is especially noticeable when using baritone tunings.
I am currently rebuilding an old London city amp from the 70ies ( 100w plexi clone) and turning it into a SLO-ish amp with EL34 tubes. I’ve gotten really familiar with the SLO and hotrod designs and know what I like about Soldano and what not. The SLO lead sound is a great sound for some occasions but I love the hotrod crunch sound as an amp sound much more. Like a Marshall 2004 JMP but just a bit hotter . It’s interesting that some amps now include new features like the IR and midi . Is it necessary ? I don’t know. The fractals and kempers got people spending more time tinkering with and managing sounds than playing guitar. This is going in the same direction.
@@LeonTodd thank you. is the gap something that can be lived with in a live scenario you reckon or woudl you reommend this more be a recording amp? thanks
Are you sure it is a reactive load as opposed to a resistive load with digital simulation? Or asked another way does Soldano specify that it is reactive somewhere? I didnt see it on their page. I was curious if they would leverage the poweramp sim tech from the irtx for the DI. Or leverage a simulation IR of a reactive load on top of resistive.
I almost thought you'd get a plugin version of the amp with it, based on the software UI. That would be so cool (sort of like the Ignite). The interface is almost there, make it so Soldano ;)
@@HVACRTECH-83 1) Look into the Ignite amp. They designed an amp to design a plugin. 2) even easier for late night practice and recording to have the amp as hardware (too loud for most any environment) and as a plugin (not to piss off the neighbours). Makes a lot of sense actually. So much so that it's been done a few times.
@@rutger4131 it's stupid lol. Whatever works forya I guess. I don't use plug-ins. And for silent practice I run my amps through my ox. I have a good amount of tube amps because it's what I like and have an addiction buying them and not one came with any plug in. Many of them have internal loads with XLR outs with or without ir's as well as headphone outs these days. Beats a plug in. Never heard of ignite but if that's what you like that's cool. Just never heard of any amp companies including plug-ins when you buy an amp. It defeats the purpose of the physical amp
@@HVACRTECH-83 relax dude, I've owned, modded and even built many a tube amp. The Ignite plugin evolved into STL tones. In those sentences that start with "I" you are describing one way to solve a problem. There's many more. And indeed, if you have a plugin, an Axe FX or something similar, your physical amps are basically redundant. That doesn't mean it's not cool to own or play a tube amp. It's very cool actually. Back to my point: Soldano is already getting a piece of the pie from the plugin market by licensing their name to other manufacturers like Neural. Why not just take the whole pie? That could make sense from a commercial stand point. Cheers, bye now.
Any chance that you will be doing a comparison between the Astro 20 and the FM3? Would love to hear how the FM3 holds up against the real amp with both using your IR.
Catching up. Soldano is my fav amp from back in the day. The big one you have is too cool and so is this one. Very very cool... Isn't the company owned by someone else now? Not Mike Soldano? Sounds so good. Just gobs of filth which ya gotta love. More is more.. ❤😂❤ You can IRs sound so much better than stock IRs when I hear them compared. You are the maestro sir.. ❤ Be well my friend..

@@LeonTodd Ahhh. That makes sense. I forgot about that. I thought a company took over and built lots of different amps in their names, but I get it. Thank you kind sir. Very cool amps. Too me the Soldano is the sound of the 80s along with the jcm 800 and the ADA mp1 which is probably my overall fav. I love your ADA vids. The tone is just too cool. ♥️🤘♥️
For $2grand, I'll just wait for Miko at ML Sounds to do a sim of it. I was really interested in it till I seen the price ! WAAAAAAYYYY out of my league !
@LeonTodd that whole era is magic. His tones on Back for the Attack are some of the best ever recorded. Prisoner. Heaven Sent. Night by night... the outro... so good! Love your channel man. Always great playing and superior examples of tone and features
The IR software looking like the IRX makes me think this stuff is coming to a lot of the stuff coming out of boutique amps distribution someday. Imagine a BE50/100 with that.
@@LeonToddthis is what I'm waiting on. Was interesting reading on TGF that Cliff say that the Poweramp sim on the IRX is really only an EQ curve. Still sounds great IMO but could sound really good in the return of the Soldano.
Can't find the standby switch! Not on the Front, not on the back. There is a on/off switch in the back. Perhabs there is a standby function in the middle position of the switch ?? A valve Amp wihout a stanby switch at this price is not accebtable for me !!!
You don't need a standby switch. The only reason for the standby switch was to prevent low voltage capacitors from shorting out . These days high voltage capacitors are used in tube amps and therefore there is no risk of damage.
@@joesmith8398 concering the capacitors is fine, but that is only half the truth. What about the Output Valves. During switch on phase there is the full plate voltage imeadly available while the heating of the valves is not yet finished. This process reduces the livetime of the valves extremly. For that reason its important for me and my purse. New Output valves are expensive. 😀
I don't know why but every review I see, this amp sounds sterile to me. Like it's lacking character. May have to play it in person. I don't get that from the JEL20 or Pink Taco V2 videos though....those sound fantastic. Little Break You at the end, yeah man! 👍
@@joesmith8398 Exactly, but i must add that exsists some tones of 100 w heads captured directly by mic that i never hear in digital emulation at the moment
@@LeonTodd See... they've trained and conditioned you all into paying more and getting less. People would have laughed at the idea of shucking out three grand for a 30w head 20 years ago.

You're giving me G.A.S. Leon!
Niche comment ha ha
Hi Leon! Have you compared it to your Hot Rod Soldano? Has it got these SLO tones in there?
Now I want some smoked ham?
Been gigging this amp and it is so sweet. Plenty of oomph just through the cab with a drummer in medium sized clubs. Cuts through thr mix smoothly. Just some scary language in the manual about using the DI that no one addresses online. If you want to go cabless, you must turn the master to 0 AND unlpug speakers or you kill the amp. Apparently you can run the di into a board live and still use the speaker. But the manual is maddeningly vague about this. Needs a bypass switch or sonething to make it foolproof.
They're expensive but no one can beat them. Marshall and Boogie take a back seat to these amps.
Well, depends on a taste. I really love Soldano, but my favorite chug is still pushed JCM 800.
This is the first amp in a while that I’ve been literally blown away by features and tone!
What’s blows me away about this amp is how I can get just about any amp sound I have in my head, and it will do it. Everything from a Bassman to a Plexi to a Bogner. And of course the classic SLO sound for less than half the price of an SLO100. And it reacts fantastic to pedals. Such a great amp.
Soloing your nuts off!!! ❤ You sound great!
You, EV and Leon's demos were all great, Michael! I think I'm pulling the trigger based on them lol
That lead tone in the jam! Too good to be true...
It's telling when we aren't even two minutes into the video and you're already getting the stank face! What a glorious time to be a guitarist, so much cool gear out there...can you imagine if we'd had even half of this stuff when we were kids???
Right?!
I can see Leon's soul leaving his body when he has to play clean.
Killer intro jam! Crazy!
Best of the Astro 20 videos!
That amp sounds amazing! Always had a soft spot for the Soldano sound.
Tones were great, a usable clean channel and 20 watts is perfect for recording. What's not to like?!
Legend playing as well too man 🤘🎸
killer playing and killer demo, am so tempted to get one now, thanks for the review!!
Thanks mate!
That's a badass little tube amp! I love the flexibility that it offers.
Sounds great! I think the only thing they dropped the ball on is the shared 3 band eq. If they could have implemented a way to recall independent eq settings with each channel, that would have been an instant buy in my book. They already loaded this bad boy with most modern day needs, that would have been the icing on the cake.
Excellent review, awesome tones, great playing!
Thank you kindly!
The Soldano tones on the Wolfgang gave me For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge flashbacks. 😮😮😮

A thousand! woah....The only reason that's holding me back is the price and I'm considering selling my Mark 5:25 to fund it.
Oh wow! This is pretty epic! 3 channels and modern IR sorcery! "Life is Grand!" .and honestly the best person to test such a killer amp.
Obviously a killer 20 watter Soldano does not make any bad amps ! Would love to A/B it up against the Friedman JEL 20.
That is another 20 watter that is insanely good!

and it does the old 800 excellent.
Sounds insane, would love to pick one up.

No Way! For years I've wished I could get just the crunch channel of the SLO.

It's an honour! I grew up idolising Soldano stuff so it was really cool being part of this launch.
Multiple stunk faces level achieved!!! G.A.S. unlocked 😅
Great soloing over a great backing track
Much appreciated!
Not a bad tone in that box. Doesn't hurt it was being demo'd by a stellar player! God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍
Well done! As is my way, designers creating a synonym for mode to GALAXY!!! is a bit anniying if not confusing. But the tones are obviously there.

Much appreciated!
Wish they could have made stacked concentric knobs for the Eq, other than that it looks great
Ordered mine today. Arrives Monday. Is excited. Lol 🥳🥳🥳

So when saving a channel, it’s IR and EQ and channel gain setting, can the midi presets (128) save all four of those above parameters ?
Yes. You can take all 4 gain modes whenever you want them with midi
