For the first time in over 30 years, the tophat-toting guitarist of Guns N’ Roses fame has collaborated with a new amplifier company-Magnatone-to create the Slash Signature SL-100 amplifier! Co-designed with longtime Magnatone engineer and amp guru Obeid Khan, the Magnatone SL-100 Slash Signature 100-watt amplifier is voiced loosely on the Magnatone Super Fifty-Nine M-80 design that Slash began using during the Guns N Roses 2023 World Tour. It was developed with Slash to meet the needs of his identifiable and unique style and tone, taking it to the next level with the monstrous tone, gain, and headroom Slash requires! Hear how it sounds with the whole CME House Band!

DID YOU KNOW?
Magnatone amplifiers began in the late 1930s as the Dickerson Musical Instrument Company founded by Delbert J. Dickerson in southern California. Beginning in the late 1930s, Magna Electronics was known as Dickerson Musical Instrument Manufacturing Company and produced amplifiers, Hawaiian and steel guitars. In the 1940s, Gaston Fator Guitar Studios in Los Angeles bought the business from Dickerson. Fator owned it for a few years, and then sold it to Art Duhamell around 1946, who changed the name to Magnatone. In the 1950s and 1960s, the company produced vibrato-equipped amplifiers which were used by musicians including Buddy Holly[4] and Lonnie Mack. The 'real' vibrato effect called F.M. Vibrato was distinct in sound and design from the more common tremolo circuits found on Fender amplifiers. In the hands of its new owner, Art Duhamell, the amplifier and guitar brand name was changed to Magnatone, and the company name was Magna Electronics Company. Duhamell built Magnatones alongside record players, radios, and speakers. By 1950, Magna expanded from their Jefferson Boulevard, Los Angeles location with three new buildings at 9749 S. Freeman Ave. and employed more than twenty-five employees. Paul Bigsby designed solid-body guitars for Magnatone from 1955-1957. Pioneering blues-rock guitar soloist Lonnie Mack used Magnatone vibrato amps almost exclusively A Magnatone amp was also the basis of the signature guitar sound of Robert Ward. They are still used today by musicians including Neil Young, who uses a 280 Stereo in his live rig.

Well that's a first, Celestion Vintage 30s being described as ' very warm' ... punchy, mid forward and with a tight bass maybe, and they actually have quite a harsh top end when pushed. Don't they?

@francoislouw181 2 ай бұрын

They can sound harsh yes, specifically when not broken in yet. And depends on the amp driving them. I'm using a 1 x 12 cab with a Vintage 30 in in for gigs. Sounds balanced. But it's a very well worn in speaker

Amp looks and sounds great, only what one expect from Magnatone. Unfortunately not quite seeing any difference to a good Marshall or the need for 100 Watt. For $7500, expensive for just pure rock, a JCM800 would probably suffice. I have both Marshall AFD and JCMSlash, but tend to use my Two Rock Bloomfield Drive more. As is widely known Marshall are great Amps when turned up loud, even with Master Volume they must still be Loud, I hope the Magnatone produces the goods at a low volume, if not, back to Two Rock, as they produce the goods at low volume. Who knows maybe a Maganatone SL100 gets added to the stable, but I'm guessing without a roadie and joining a G'N'R cover band, I guess not.

@leonardomedeirosg Ай бұрын

I also have AFD100, both models (signed and no), I love the amp!!! It’s my choose to gig with my GNR cover band. But one thing make me think to have this Magnatone: the 2 independent gains, so to have a clean switchable. But….. a friend of mine play it at NAMM, and said the gain isn’t enough. Btw Slash is using a TS808 to boost it in his tour. So, I’m still not convinced to buy, even being a huge collector.

Sort of but not really. Slash still performs and I think this was initially created for his need for the best sound. Then they are turning around that hard work to sell the results to the public. I think of a cash grab as a product originally designed to please the customer and is never actually used by the pro in real life.
