NAD! Soldano....

[SLOgriff]

Custom ordered through Lynn Burke at Blues City Music. I love this amp!! Sounds similar to my SLO but has a different and "thicker" flavor with a certain "silky-ness" to it. I'm liking it better than my SLO right now.

Custom Options:
* Extra Gain switch
* Footswitchable 2nd Master Volume
* 1/2 Power Switch
* Effects Loop
* SLO Grills

Most happy I've been with a NEW amp in a long time! I've gone thru a few different ones lately...and this one is special!

 

[The Hoff]

Wow, nice. Clips!!!

Nice Bryan. Does it have the SLO PT/OT in it?

Mike and Bill have been busy in the Soldano Custom Shop. Here's my new Dual Overdrive SLO Custom that I had built a few months ago and it is a bad-ass SLO. Also, came through Lynn at BCM. No, clean/crunch, but two OD channels are voiced a little differently, switchable, a depth mod and an FX loop bypass. This head cuts like a knife and plays with authority. After I got this, the other SLO's flew the coop. I pulled two of my Mesa Recto cabs out of storage and loaded them with V30's x 65's.

I got mine made with the older "Marvel" transformers. I like those the best!

Real nice, so maybe I missed it in your post is that an avenger. I'm not playing my SLO much lately as I'm to blown away by the xtc I bought from you. I liked it initially and then decided I liked my Uberschall better and would eventually sell it, but now after retweaking the blue and red channels continuously this is my favorite amp ever. It's not going anywhere.

 

[cecilbag]

Incredible amp. I've always wanted a slo, is this an avenger? I never knew you could order one with 2 different od's, drool....

 

[glassjaw7]

Pure awesomeness!!!! Both you and Steve have me drooling over here.

Yep, it's an Avenger with my kitchen sink of mods that I prefer. Turned out better than expected and I'm loving the tones!! My next Soldano amp may be a custom Soldano 44 with a CLEAN/Crunch switch in a small head (no 1x12)...head only like an Astroverb.

Sweet!!!

So it has a loop added and s switchable 2nd Master... what is the switch next to the Gain control?

That switch was my idea. It's changes a resistor value on the board and adds more gain. I was talking to Bill (at Soldano) last year about a mod that would add more gain to an Avenger....he told me about a mod (piggy back resistor) on one of the stock resistors. I tried it with an older Avenger and it worked pretty well. So I had them make it switchable to add more gain to the circuit. It's actually too subtle right now so I need to change the resistor value to bump it up a little more.

...don't get me wrong, the stock Avenger has about the same gain as an SLO. I just wanted a little more for some heavier stuff.
