Wow, thanks!

🤣"Jut a VERY TINY AMOUNT.........of a million different effects". Sorry, Euge....couldn't help but tease you a bit. ANY Soldano is a killer Soldano. In my old age, the fewer buttons to press, or figure out, the better. But, a killer sounding amp, and I particularly love the clean. I'd love to hear how the crunch channel sounds on this amp though. Most people tend to just straight into the OD channel, when the crunch (pushed) is Solano's signature tone (IMO). I second your comment on Michael Neilsen's video of this amp. He does a really good job of breaking it all down, for all the button-pushers out there. Absolutely LOVE it when you break out your driving 80's riffs when demo'ing these style amps. You should do an 80's inspired album, Euge. Killer demo! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome as always. I’ve been looking at getting a Soldano for years this might be the one or maybe the SLO 30. Unfortunately for this one the power switch is in the back and it doesn’t look to have a standby. I really enjoyed that Astro song you know me I’m a sucker for rhythm on the higher strings. You should really consider putting that on your next album.

@@MattHuntguitar cab was mic’d for FOH. I didn’t have any of my guitar in my floor monitor. I can absolutely say that I have not had a volume issue, even at practice. We are a 4 piece, bass uses an amp head and cab. Singer/rhythm guitar uses a Kemper with powered speaker on stage so maybe that’s why I haven’t had an issue? Our drummer is a medium/loud rock drummer, we play moderate to heavy 80’s/90’s rock. I don’t want to lead you down a wrong path but I cannot fathom needing more volume and/or clarity when using the Astro. For reference my other amps are a 90w Bogner Shiva 20th Anni, SLO 100, ‘84 Marshall JCM800 2204, EVH 50w and a Fender 60w 2x12 Landau Deville combo. Still, each band/drummer is different so YMMV.
