Soldano SLO-100 vs Omega Obsidian - Which Amp has the BEST High Gain Tone

[@EricMorettin]

Great job man. They're definitely in a similar vein for tone, but the Omega is definitely more modern sounding and less chalky in the mids compared to the Soldano. Both sound great and you can't have the new stuff without the OG!

[@ScottBynoe]

So true. I hear people shit on the SLO sometimes and I don’t get it. It has such an important place in history, plus it’s still 100% relevant even with modern tones.

[@EricMorettin]

@@ScottBynoe it's funny that people will complain about the SLO and play a Dual Rec or a 5150 and praise them, even though they're all in the ball park of eachother. The rectifier preamp circuit is literally a rip right from the SLO.

100%

​@@EricMorettin Those people are following the opinion of their KZbin subscriptions like lost puppies. Of course, these KZbin channels exist for clicks, and need content that keeps them flowing, making the constructed feedback loop necessary for them. It's always good to hear opinions like yours that aren't overly brash, and down to earth. The guitar community needs more of that.

@@ChronicMetamorphosis thanks, I appreciate that! Perspective, seeing multiple sides, and not being on a high horse are key!

[@Greg-rd8qr]

Both sounded great!

And....he's back! Was wondering where you went. Great demo!

[@ScottBynoe]

Thanks man, just been busy with other things lately.

[@Straightedge63]

loved the OMEGA! sounds so huge and aggressive! and also, kinda sounds like its double tracked all the time! i dig it!

[@ScottBynoe]

To be fair in this demo both the Omega and Soldano were double tracked :)

[@justcantshred]

It's the Soldano for me.
