Most informative video on this I've seen so far, really helped me out! Especially the section where you talked about the volts; I live in europe, so the amp has almost 27 times as many volts as the pedal has, which indeed convinced me to buy the real thing, even if it's a tad more expansive...

Great review! I received my Soldano pedal yesterday and I’m only slightly disappointed that it didn’t come with a handle. The SLO-100 was atop my list when I started chasing tone down the rabbit hole earlier this year. I decided to go with the Friedman BE-100 deluxe and Mezzabarba Trinity 100 instead based on the information that was available online. The bad thing about most of the pricey amplifiers is they are hard to find in a store to try out in person.

I just came from a famous store channel. The guys there at some point made a direct comparison between the pedal and the amp. The result was the same as what you showed, they don't sound the same. Not even close. I was so shocked they still said right away that they sound the same!
@stoneysdead689 Жыл бұрын
The Slo actually has 2 channels on it- a lead channel and a crunch channel- the guys at Anderton's were able to get this pedal to sound very similar to the crunch channel on the slo. It wasn't perfect but it was at least 90% accurate. Considering the pedal and the amp were run through two different cabs, for all we know that's where that 10% difference came from- very possible had they been run through the same cab it may have sounded even closer. That said- they're never going to sound identical and give you all the same options- if they did that why would anyone ever buy another SLO100 amp? The last thing they want to do is make the real amp obsolete. It costs over 4gs- this pedal runs a little over 200 bucks so- you have to be realistic.

Hi Henning - The thing about a Soldano clone pedal is that it's a bit similar to a Dumble one. I've never seen or heard a Soldano amp live and very few people have. KZfaq videos are totally useless and albums don't help much either cos of production, EQ, and multiple amp voicings used. Sooo what is the Soldano SLO tone ? No one can showcase it on youtube. It sounds great from what I've heard but also seems similar to many Mesa Boggie amps. And if people don't know what the classic Soldano SLO tone is how can they know if this pedal does a good job of cloning its tones?
