SUPER LEAD OVERDRIVE 100-WATT GUITAR (SLO-100)
AMPLIFIER MANUAL
Congratulations on your purchase of the legendary 100-watt Super Lead
Overdrive guitar amplifier. This self-contained amp head is the finest
hand-built, all-tube guitar amplifier available anywhere. Whatever your
musical style, the infinite tonal variations, ease of use, versatility, and
rugged, road-tested construction make it the ultimate guitar amp. It’s a
classic and an investment that will last a lifetime. In fact, the SLO-100 is
covered by a lifetime warranty.
The SLO-100 incorporates two independent preamps, Normal and
Overdrive, driven by four 12AX7/7025 tubes (five with the effects loop
option). It features individual preamp gain controls and separate master
volume controls with absolutely noise free channel switching. The
available options for the SLO-100 include a tube-buffered effects loop
and variable “slave” output.
The Normal channel offers a Clean/Crunch Switch. When set to clean,
the gain is cut, providing full, clean, undistorted warmth, which is
incredibly responsive and alive. When switched to crunch, the Normal
channel responds with higher gain and a tough, metal edged crunch.
The Bright Switch offers sparkling highs to the Normal channel adding to
its versatility.
Soldano products have a lifetime warranty on workmanship
(the SLO-100 warranty is transferable). Parts and labor are
warranted for ten years (excluding tubes, transformers,
damage, and normal wear and tear).
WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THIS GUITAR AMPLIFIER WITHOUT
SPEAKER(S) OR A SUITABLE “DUMMY LOAD” PLUGGED INTO THE
SPEAKER JACK(S). FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE
TO THE OUTPUT TRANSFORMER AND FAILURE OF THE
AMPLIFIER.
