In 1987, Mike Soldano created the now legendary
Super Lead Overdrive 100-watt tube head. The SLO
set the standard for modern high-gain amplification
and nearly four decades later, is still one of the most
coveted amps in history.
The SLO’s drive channel found it backing up
renowned rock guitarists like Mick Mars (Motley
Crue), Warren de Martini (Ratt), and Howard Leese
(Heart), while the bluesy crunch channel made the
SLO the first choice for non-metal stalwarts, such as
Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Warren Haynes, Gary
Moore and Lou Reed, to name a few.
The SLO-100 is famous for being one of the most
detailed-sounding high-gain guitar amplifiers of all time.
Until now, it’s been challenging to capture the amp’s
nuanced character in a pedal format. The new Super
Lead Overdrive pedal changes that, with the perfect
balance of gain, sustain, and touch response the SLO is
known for.
Crafted using the same cascading gain stages as
the flagship amp, the SLO PLUS pedal is the perfect
way to get that signature Soldano sound on to your
pedalboard. The SLO PLUS pedal front panel boasts
MASTER and PREAMP controls for both the NORMAL
and OVERDRIVE Channels, 3-band EQ and Presence
control. The side-mounted Deep switch nails the amp’s
depth-knob low-end punch. These controls take you from
harmonically rich crunch to some of the most famous
high-gain tones in history.
