Soldano SLO-100 Playthru Demo

- Soldano SLO-100 quick play thru. Two tubes pulled to put it in 50 watt operation. Masters are set VERY low. This is just louder than yelling volume. This amp can be punishingly loud!
SM 57 on a V30 in a Marshall Cab.
best amp ever made…..
Great playing! Probably the best SLO demo on you-tube...Thanks
+Gcastaneda46 THANK YOU!
Thought the same, dude! I guess this one is the best SLO100 demo too!
Agreed, best demo around :)
Agreed
This channel is the gold mine I was searching for so long! Amazing job!
Ridiculously good tone and playing!
+SgtThump thank you sir!
Love the SLO!! Still one of my favorite amps!! Thank you for posting such a good little demo!!! Please keep them coming!
One of the best at all times!
This was the amp Mesa Boogie was inspired by when they created the Rectifier in early 90's. That "modern" sound - all presence and brightness vs. the older warmth and round mid-range of Marshall's before then. Love it!
Jordan Sage Mike says in an interview that Mesa completely ripped off his circuit.
I have a modded Dual Recto which sounds exactly like the SLO-100, the guy who made the mod just unsoldered one of the wires lol
Yes am afraid to say that one of the Rectifiers was a complete rip off of this amp. Except for the power section, which was weak compared to an SLO100 (i.e. Barely made 100W).
"inspired by" is a bit too polite.
@@rangerdoc1029 your right soldano was very dissapointed with mesa for the complete preamp rip they did
We
i cant believe how much gain it had with the preamp on 1.5
Sounded great!!
A modern classic...
I’ve never even played this amp but from all the quality videos that demonstrate this amplifier you can tell it’s quite the machine. I truly think there are many tubs amplifiers, solid states, and machinery like the axe fx 3 are their own sound and that you need to go to the source in order to get that sound. I hate when people compare certain amplifiers to the stereotypical or worse when that’s what companies go for unless it’s to create modded or cheaper version. I also don’t get why people try to make a mesa “sound like a Marshall” or vice versa. That or some unique metal amp automatically becomes a mesa because the distortion is “brutal”. The keywords most guitar players make no sense and usually are just engrained reactions to a tone making the mind react a certain way. I’ve also realized nearly everyone is heavily blended and distorted by their eyes. They see the amp and guitar and almost automatically the real perception and analysis go out the window. Your feelings have so much to do with it too. The songs as well. That’s why I think it’s no surprise some big name artists always stick to the same equipment.
Glad Soldano is finally back and making amps again but super expensive. SLO is nearly as much as Wizard and hard to pick for metal.
I think the SLO is a rock amp. so Is the wizard.
Great demo the first I've seen where someone actually turns the overdrive channel up past 6, would love to see another demo of the slo with the overdrive at 11 ,bass 11,mid 7,treble7 master at 4 and presence at 6 ( matt pile high on fire settings)
At last! A demo that doesn't make the SLO100 sound like crap. Seen so many bad demos of these amps. Great playing and great tone!
That is sick.... SICK!
The slo is most ALIVE of any amp
one word, epic.
I've had one of these for a long time. It sounds amazing. This is the amp that the Peavey 5150 was modeled after. Peavey couldn't come close. It's expensive but worth every penny. The HR-50 sounds great too.
@Fred Garvin "This is the amp that the Peavey 5150 was modeled after." No it isn't. Watch the episode of Tone Talk with James Brown (designer of the 5150, among other amps) and that'll set you straight... spoiler: it was mostly based off of Peavey's own VTM series, which James also designed. Here ya go-

James Brown wasn't going to be recorded blatantly admitting that he ripped Soldano's design, but Van Halen asked for a "Soldano with a resonance knob"
Nice got my slo may 2018 had a hotrod plus for 8 years night and day difference
im hoping to do that same upgrade. : ) although my HR has a Marshall type OT, that helps.
My boy Mikey Houser RIP of Widepread Panic used to use them and Warren Haynes of Gov't Mule still does... met Mike Soldano backstage at a Gov't Mule show in Memphis once... very nice gentleman.. he reminded me of Jeff G. of Jurassic Park
"dont jive me mama, you know what I want!"
It sounds even better with the master at 2 at least! Less fizzy.
"Masters are set VERY low." lol I build a 5w tube amp couple years ago and I also keep my master below 1 even though i only have 1x12 speaker.
I had a friend build a 7 watt 6L6 SE amp and it was very loud...at home. And a speaker with around 100db efficiency needs only 1 watt to yell.
BUT if you want to push more air, in the studio and have bass, 7 watts is not really enough, for a clean or distorted sound. That same amp, I had it dimed in the studio and it was...ok but nothing spectacular. A blues guy with that same amp pretty much gigged the little fucker by micing it.
I sometimes am not satisfied with 50 watt tube amps when jamming loud with a drummer playing metal...
My soldano did make my internal organs bleed though. 100 watt avenger.
très belle démo, le son est sublime,, j'ai le même, avec un délay Strymon et un chorus Strymon dans la boucle, et je joue sur baffle Marshall Slash V30, le son est mieux que le 1960 TV, que j'aime beaucoup
Je lorgne sérieusement dessus
SOUNDS GREAT!
Basically a hot rodded Marshall Plexi, with some bells and whistles.
Nothing like it......Played both ..
The Plexi & SLO Differant beasts completely.
Also remember the tone is in the fingers of the master.
@@dracul9166 True there.....I will say though this guy does some of,if not the best demos on amps i have heard on You Tube.Fantastic...
Plus this SLO KICKS ya arse into next week.....hahahahaha
I saw mike soldano was saying his concept of this amp was to have a real loud clean power amp section little to none break up and all the break up comes from the preamp. That really doesn’t fit the description of a Marshall. Marshall depends on that power section to compress and Cook (power tube distortion).
Well apparently the first SLO's made were actually based on the Mesa Mark II B made in the early 80's
and here I am, playing a Soldano SLO100, on my iphone *crying
Paramarta Iganp not sure I understand this comment
RezaMatix software-based amp simulator on smartphone. I just sub your channel. Amazing job!
great demo, yep that EQ is good on this amp, you are used to using it !
Great playing tooooi
Just watched about 20 of your demos and have come back to the SLO a few times now- I think it’s my favourite of all the amps you’ve demoed. I also really liked the Diezel VH4, Hagen and 2C++. Which of those do you like best?
God damn your videos are good. love your playing man. Killer riffs, killer tones...lets be friends
Shred Shed thanks for watching, please make sure to sub and check out my other channel Advanced Guitars & Gear!
Your vids are the best!
Whew! I think my nipples just ripped holes in my shirt after hearing that tone! 😆
I cant believe the dynamics, clarity and crunch it has even with the preamp gain so low. You weren't running an overdrive pedal were you, just curious?
no sir!
I wish that Mike Soldano made a 50 watt version!!
just pull two power tubes.
Outstanding!!
Great demo! Just checking this out cause Ceriatone is gonna start making them ) just heads up for anyone interested
spatnaspolecnost haha, I don't think Ceriatone is gonna match the SLO , especially with the MK2 SLO only a month or so away.
can't believe i sold mine.
thinking about one of the new ones but not sure if they'll be the same.
just posted a couple videos of the new one!
I know man. I had an SLO back in 2007. Absolutely LOVED the thing, but there were other toys I wanted and talked myself into selling it. Well, I have found out that only an SLO does the SLO and very few amps have that combination of clarity when combined with high gain. Not to mention it has this awesome percussiveness with leads that is even across all strings. I am considering dumping a few things myself and buying a new one as well...
SluggerStark new one is much improved on all counts.
@ 4:47 rip all the knobs off cause thats all the SLO you'll ever need
With the master on 0.5 technically this could be considered a preamp demo. Just sayin' lol. This amp really comes alive at 5-7.
awesome buddy
Would you recommend this for early 90's death metal? You mentioned you thought this was more a of a 'rock' amp. I need articulation as well as bassy scooped crunch. What do you think?
maybe with some pedals. but save your money and buy the same thing Chuck Shuldiner used
Beautiful! What marshall Cab are you using?
I would love to hear you demo a Mojave Peacemaker.
Hi, could you tell me which preamp tubes you were using? Thanks
Ótima execução e testes, se eu pudesse escolher um amplificador seria esse.
Was the Diezel Herbert based on this amp? They seem to have a lot of tonal quality in common in your demo vids.
They are both four gain stage + cf preamps with similarly tuned tone stacks, going to have a similar character
Thanks for the info.
Very nice playing and tasty chops mate. What this song from at 6:24??
shred just my own stuff
Cool amp.....did you find the pick attack a little slow? or had a little sag to it? And how would your compare it to the Mesa Rev F that you had? thanks again.....I always enjoy your efforts
Auen73 the mesa dual rectifier,triple rec,ect has the same exact preamp (stolen) with a weaker power section.
Hope this answers your question
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!1
Been two years, fork over the $5000 and its yours!
awesome sound!! question, what guitar are you using in this video? you know, model, pickups, etc...
Samuel Gatica les Paul, arcane pickups
sounds killer man!! never expected it was a les paul...
My God I’m speechless 😶
Just wondering: where is the usual NORMAL - OVERDRIVE switch?
Ah, it also doesn't have the usual DEPTH control.
bro... would you take the slo, mk c++, mc ii, or what??? one amp for the brutal.

Tonewise, the SLO is about as different from a Boogie as it gets. While Boogies have always gone down the modded Fender path, the SLO is all about the ultimate in Marshall tone.
weirdly the SLO and the marshall both started off of a Fender Circuit. A Bassman.
I always felt Mike Soldano's design philosophy was to get at the very heart of Marshall tone and rebuild upwards to the contemporary (1986) era which would encapsulate the best of plexi with modern mods. An SLO can sound so authentic that a lot of users only use it for those older tones rather than the monster high gain they can achieve. One thing about the SLO is that it completely circumvents the JCM era. I was never a fan of JCMs myself, although I did love the Jubilee because I felt it corrected some of the JCM's deficits like flat, papery harmonic overtones. The SLO is about pure tone quality and headroom and build quality. They are built like tanks. That is also a big reason why some major players have brought them on the road. There are a lot of great sounding amps Clapton and Knopfler could use, but few as roadworthy as an SLO. The first time I saw a major act using SLOs prominently was when I saw Allman Bros at Pacific Coast Ampitheater in '93. Dicky and Warren had a wall of SLOs and their tone was incredible, really cut through. I first tried an SLO at a boutique shop in Hollywood, maybe Mesa Sunset Sound, in '86. I was hearing all this buzz and had to see what it was about. I tried one and when I found out the price I wanted to cry. I could not believe the tone. It was the Ferrari of amps. @@RezaMatix
This delay makes me moist!
Which delay are you using and how you connect it?
Strymon Timeline, in the effects loop. Read the description for more details.
Do you think it works really good in the fx loop? And do you have it modified in any ways or is the amp completely stock?
Enzo Asprino Friedman modded Fx loop.
what delay are you using?
Strymon!
Sounds awesome,Just bought the Timeline last year..best delay i've ever had.
what delay pedal and setting.. nice
Strymon Timeline, dont remember the setting. Probably the analog delay setting (usually using that)
any mods to this one or is it stock? Thanks- James
Fx loop is Suhr modded.
Fx loop is Suhr modded.
5150 iii can't touch the glassy tone on this amp. Fender can't touch a 1986 SLO. Dig the Cathedral effect on steroids.
take my money!!! oh wait...im kinda really short....hence one of my songs...poverty sucks...
Nice but your tuning was slightly off by a whisker either that or intonation needs checking.
definitely changes the tone of the amp and the ability of the viewer to get a feel for its tones!
@@RezaMatix Totally, it's so important to have that spot on else it just doesn't sit right.
@@plummetplum You should call tony iommi and tell him the first black sabbath record is out of tune!
@@RezaMatix hahaha!
1:50 das it maneeee
Special mention to 4:45 as well
Quelle guitare est utilisée
André BIENKO les Paul
Great tone for certain types of music.As I'm mostly a metal player it's not for me.Its decent if you boost the hell out of it but at that price point give me a Driftwood Purple Nightmare, anything made by Fortin,or Engl anyday. Even a Randall Satan
Scott Ray many types of metal music, I have had all the amps you mentioned and this has a power a punch none of them have. It’s great we all get so many choices.
what pickups are you using?
trey azagathooth Arcane Inc. Always!
thanks, any model in the specific?
trey azagathooth ask for the Reza Model, Alnico 8
great amp....too bad they will no longer be made.In 5 years you'll be paying 10 grand at least for a used one.
Chris Circelli they’re is a whole new line coming out.
check out my channel for videos of the new one just posted today...
