The 30-watt Soldano Super Lead Overdrive (SLO-30) 1×12” combo sings and roars with the same voice of its iconic bigger brother, the SLO-100. It’s a harmonically rich character that remains at the forefront of modern high-gain electric guitar amplification. But this 30-watt, all-tube combo is optimized to today’s studio and stage applications.

Channel – 30 Watts SLO-30

Onboard the SLO-30, you’ll find the same Normal and Overdrive channels – including independent Preamp (gain) and Master controls – that we’ve all come to expect from the SLO name. Even the Normal channel’s mini voicing toggle switches are present and accounted for. Turn the amp around, and you’re greeted by a tube-buffered FX loop and variable slave output, just like the original.

The SLO-30 combo features the Celestion G12H-150 Redback speaker which delivers a tight, fat low end, laid-back treble, and the right amount of Celestion’s signature midrange character to deliver compelling lead lines. The Redback 2-inch voice coil delivers massive tone and extreme power handling, yet still retains the detail and clarity you need to play loud and clean.

Depth Control

Historically, one of the most popular SLO “mods” is the addition of a DEPTH control to the amplifier’s power section. The Depth control is now standard on the SLO-30. The combination of the Depth and Presence controls provides a powerful EQ section that goes well beyond a typical tone stack, enhancing the tonal possibilities of the amp’s sonic character.

Improved Noise Floor

The new SLO-30 features modern grounding, a DC based filament circuit and circuit separation to avoid crosstalk between the channels resulting in an excellent signal-to-noise ratio without altering the amp’s pure tone.

Versatile & Transparent Effects loop

The newly designed ultra-transparent tube-buffered effects loop handles anything from vintage pedals to line-level rack units.

Front panel Channel switching

Players familiar with the original SLOs will be elated at our inclusion of an onboard channel-select toggle switch. Perfect for applications such as studios, where you don’t want to rely on a footswitch.
