Soldano SLO-100 | Monsters of High Gain

Our updated "Monsters of High Gain" series features guitar powerhouse Prashant Aswani putting 10 of today's heaviest hitters through their paces on a dynamic, original track.

Next up is the Soldano SLO-100. Introduced in 1987 by Mike Soldano, the Super Lead Overdrive 100 (SLO-100) revolutionized high-gain amplification. With its searing harmonics, ideal balance of gain, sustain, and tight touch response, the SLO-100 quickly gained recognition when showcased at the 1987 NAMM show in Los Angeles. This game-changing amp became the new standard, prompting guitarists to replace their old amps with the foot-switchable 100-watt powerhouse. While the SLO-100's drive channel found favor among renowned rock guitarists, its clean channel and bluesy crunch appealed to non-metal players like Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, and Warren Haynes. Today, the SLO-100's iconic tone and reliability make it a go-to choice for countless guitarists worldwide. The new SLO-100 retains its legendary reputation while incorporating popular features requested by players. Handcrafted in the United States with top-quality components, the amp now includes a standard Depth control for enhanced tonal possibilities, improved noise floor thanks to modern grounding and circuit separation, and a versatile, transparent effects loop with a hardwire bypass switch. Additionally, front-panel channel switching provides convenience for studio applications. The new Soldano SLO-100 combines iconic design, meticulous craftsmanship, and modern performance, staying true to its original goal of being the world's best and most versatile amplifier.
