But the SLO do sound great, it's just not the best amp for some genres that might require less balls, less organic sound, ear piercing high mids and essentially every tone definition that a couple of decades ago would have been used to describe an ugly sounding amp. But the Soldano IS a spectacular sounding amp, and let me be a dick to everyone here, there's no "my EvH 5153 is far superior and less pricey lol" here, the EvH just fits modern music better, just like a Fiat Panda 4x4 gets the upper hand going off-road against a Lambo.
