Dear diary, hour ten and the SLO pedal marketing still persists. Every channel. Round the clock. It will not stop. The machine will not be satisfied until everyone purchases. Will resist. Log in to YT tomorrow and hope for better days.

[@geraldhenrickson7472]

Should we start a support group? Maybe?

I didn’t get one and I’m super bummed! 🤓🎸🤘🏻

As far as Amp in a box authenticity, Soldano nailed this, I must admit. Great demo Phillip.

[@3J_Music]

Love the Dokken riffs Phil. Pedal sounds great

[@benachurch]

Of all the demos I’ve seen I think this is the best!! Great demo Phil! Well played sir. 🤘🏻🇦🇺🤘🏻

[@JohnSoldano-yn7je]

Your videos are never disappointing. Thank you.

[@chrisggoodwin777]

I was shocked at the gain sound with the gain knob at zero. Seems like a great way to get nice gain sound and save a few thousand bucks in the process

[@tmsglobal5848]

Thanks for showing some ways to apply the pedal to individual needs. Great review!

[@samright4661]

Killing it with Dokken licks , Pedal sounds fantastic

[@jd3410]

Thank you for another quality review!

[@allanflippin2453]

Great review! Straight to the point. I appreciate that you take some time ahead to understand the pedal before you start shooting.

[@johngonzalez7967]

Thank God, we needed another pedal.

[@DavidFeilyMusic]

would love a shootout from some of the high gain pedals like the new SLO, JHS Angry Charlie V3, Friedman, etc.

[@Havanacuba1985]

Nice riffage Phil, great demo , this looks like it could be on par with the BE - OD as an amp in a box pedal. Enjoy your podcast too ,listening to them every night going through the episodes

[@FrancoContreras]

I think this is one of the best tones you have archived

[@foggyblues13]

Awesome review Phil!

[@truthtobehonest]

That pedal sounds killer!

[@danalopresto3139]

Great video as usual. Also I enjoyed the George Lynch riffs especially considering that George is known for his early use of Soldano amps.

[@konowd]

Awesome, Soldanos are great amps and that sounds awesome

[@donciseau]

Great tones

[@starkickermusic2100]

Dude! I just realized as you were rockin out the monster riffs that your 80's band would have totally been called "McKnight! With songs like Dump Truck and Skinned Knees I can see the video now where your in the desert with an armadillo kicking up dirt as you solo with a helicopter fly by!! I want the t-shirt!!!

[@DEZZA12]

Amazing, and finally hearing the room mic is good

[@BigMateo24]

Yeah, that first note you hit, I'm sold. I must have this pedal.

[@BradRocker]

Nice, way to show how it does with the volume rolled back.

[@Claimjumper55]

Sounds great!! I'd love to see it compared to the Synergy SLO module and the Helix (especially after today's wicked awesome Helix 3.5 update).

[@WilliamHaisch]

Wow! Instant early 1990’s Van Halen sound! Nice!

[@joesatchton212]

DOKKEN BABY! Lol...This pedal is a must try for myself. :) Good one Phil, as always.

[@xsamitt]

Man that is killer Tone!

[@TAM-gz5tc]

Good demo

[@ohplezz]

Great review.

[@andrewbiggs8435]

Does anyone have any thoughts on how the SLO pedal compares to the SLO simulation in the Line6 Helix? A head-to-head would be interesting, for all of us who can't afford the real thing (or would get arrested for the volume level...).

[@robertpurdy4452]

I saw the videos for this pedal after I bought the new CHUG pedal from Solar guitars. I hope I made a good decision. They both sound great for what they do, and yes I'm aware they each go for a different pallete of sounds

[@davidramos4317]

Am I the only one that thinks it’s sounds bad

[@TheCyberMantis]

The CHUG pedal has some nice features. It sounded great when Ola demo'd it.

[@jayteesgear]

Phillip this is the ONLY demo anyones made the pedal sound good.

[@JustRockMySoul]

Watched their commercial with George Lynch and Mike yesterday, and i gotta say in your video the thing sounds even better, nice playing, too!

[@MusicChannel-rf5zz]

Great video.Thanks.BTW no adaptor with it?

[@place_desjardins]

Nice review. There were a bunch of other youtube videos that reviewed that pedal and no one talked about the little pedal bag that comes with it. No one except you.

[@turbinexman]

The SLO pedal cleans up a lot better than the BE-OD!!

[@johnboleyjr.1698]

Tasty toons. Takes me back to high school.

trying to figure out if the pedal or SOLDANO mini amp and what differences they offer?

[@Ovibos5]

Dang, that’s pretty good

[@JesseLeeKing]

I love that guitar

[@alextomasi8387]

would be nice a test between this and the amt s2

[@LoR2023]

What kind of 112 are you running?? Sounds very busy for a small cabinet . Great demo. Thank you

[@mikerinehart]

Glad to know there are pedals still out there that scream "PLAY DOKKEN!!"

[@redcomn]

Yay the supersonic is back

[@shadrackperez7325]

Hi Phil Congrats on your channel. what about that sparkle Strat on the back on today video? Love it man! 😍

[@rudyhamblee523]

hi..between slo pedal and pal 800, which one is more versatile ? thanks

[@elenbrandt290]

Oooooo - new toys....and such a nice, subtle-looking, conservative guitar to demo them.

[@davidmerlin3344]

How do you compare this with your 5150 pedal? Which is your favorite of the two?

[@joeyzeeguitar]

well I am sold! just bought

[@bridgey3706]

I was thinking it had that 80s sound. You must have too! Dokken!

[@officialpoa3171]

*you should run a TS9in front of it, with the deep switch engaged.*

[@jjones8817]

Rockin with Dokken 🤘

[@disclabdisclab2595]

It chugs!

[@Bart-5150]

How does this pedal compare to the 5150 pedal? Thanks

[@jeffmiski3392]

Dokken riffs all over the place!

[@1992YR]

How about a comparison video Soldano SLO Pedal vs Soldano SLO Mini Amp.

[@BigHairyGuitars]

That sounded good for 9min 54 seconds. But ESPECIALLY at 7:45!

[@thomasvantorre1922]

What e nice pedal is this men

[@bluesthing7490]

How does it compare to the SLO MINI amp? That would be a good video..

[@dustinarnold79]

I'm pretty sure it's the same thing they just put it in pedal format

[@FankDWalter]

Can you run that through the FX loop?

[@ashtonccole]

better or worse than the EVH 5150 Overdrive? got one the other day and kinda hate it. very fizzy.

[@markbois1713]

I agree had a 5150 pedal it had a weird high end zing I didn't like and couldn't dial out!

[@ashtonccole]

@@markbois1713 i’ve tweaked it a bit today to get it where it’s usable. mids and treble down with bass up. still not great, but better.

[@neilpatrickhairless]

5150s only work on 666. if it doesn't sound good on that setting its FUBAR

[@SapperRJMorgan]

So, basically the pedal version of the mini amp?

[@icenic_wolf]

I'm expecting parity between all of the products offered by Boutique Amp Distribution, so probably the equivalence between this and the mini-head is exactly the same as with the BE-OD and the BE mini head, etc etc; extrapolate as you will...

[@idiotburns]

Whats your final take?

[@stevenhoffman6241]

Phil I want to buy my son a really good telecaster for 700 or less. What do I get him? Year and brand, new or used. I want to get what you suggest. I'm trying to stay below $1,000.00. Thank you

[@RexCars1]

Cool Pedal.. ( and dokken riffs ) lol

[@jimandcathep9915]

You have a SLO30 - why not compare the two?

[@scottreynolds5455]

Wow! Love the idea. With a 9-volt power supply, how many micro amps are required? Some pedals specify 100mA, 300mA etc. Or does it even matter? Id Est, I know some of my pedals require the 300mA and will not work with a 100mA power supply.

[@scottreynolds5455]

Cable location looks supreme after thinking about it.

[@TarnishedViking.]

🤘👍

[@mvenuti1980]

Soldano and Dokken were meant for each other.

[@gspit391]

feelin a little dokken today? sounds great.

[@patrickhoglund192]

If I have a Line 6 Amplifi amp and 2 Spark amps and an old HiWatt head and an old Crate Blue VooDoo and Marshall etc… and distortion and overdrive pedals… do I NEED this too? 😉 My gut response is YES! 😂🤘🎸👍

[@thorpenator9148]

Yes you do...and me too.

[@kenwheeler4731]

I've played this pedal and the Soldano Slo 30 head. The head is better but this pedal plays with a lot of harmonics and sounds just as good as the Friedman BE pedal but a bit different.

[@fredericadda]

Some Dokken 😍

[@davidkurnos3081]

I know you like it Phil cause you kept smiling

[@james4084]

Good afternoon. From apache Junction

[@Dwoed]

This or the Glove?

[@maxmustardman298]

Amp in a bag type pedal

[@williamnichols6253]

I don't understand the point... If this is the "amp", then why plug it into an amp? How would it sound plugging it right into a PA?

[@tommymags]

Yeah the marketing blitz on this is nuts. But…. Yeah I’m gonna buy one. Dokken Rules!!!

[@richardfranklin8359]

King X anyone? Phil, you make me 😊

[@raphgambuto649]

yeah dokken riffs

[@TheCyberMantis]

Best way to demo this pedal: play some Dokken riffs! 😄🤘🏻

[@nateshewell6509]

The SLO pedal sounded great! The Andertons review of this had me thinking it wasn't that good. Usually love what those guys do, but their review was dumpster fire. I wonder if the hot pickups in that Kiesel, or running through the Fender head made the difference.

[@BigMateo24]

To be fair, they were running it through a completely differently voiced amp with greenbacks, no surprise that it sounded much more mid focused. When they ran it through the SLO clean channel with the same v30 cab, I thought it was really really close.

[@nateshewell6509]

@@BigMateo24 I agree it sounded close through the Soldano, but since that's the amp it is supposed to be modeling it wasn't much of a selling point.

[@johnjacoLMSW]

speaker choice is incredibly underrated. I love v30s!

[@ericvinson4628]

Lynch riffage ftw!

[@metalcrue4646]

Does this sound better than the MXR 5150 overdrive pedal, and more versatile?

[@SapperRJMorgan]

Great question. I know Phil loves the MXR 5150

[@ashtonccole]

i have the same question. my 5150 is a fizz machine.

[@metalcrue4646]

Yes he does, so do I. But you know us tone junkies are always chasing the next top dawg for our pedal board lol 😆

[@bridge500t]

So if you run it as a preamp, how exactly do you hook it up?

[@giosundance5643]

Thought the return of the effects loop of your amp…basically this order guitar>soldano pedal>effects loop(return)

[@jjgson69]

It's not designed to run as a pre-amp, made to run into the front of an amp. You can use it that way but probably won't sound as good thru an effects loop.

[@giosundance5643]

@@jjgson69 that’s not true

[@jjgson69]

@@giosundance5643 Yes it is. don't believe me watch Pete Thorn, he say the same thing. He doesn't recommend using thru effects loop..... just saying....

[@upStomp]

@@jjgson69, according to Pete Thorn, you are correct. This is an overdrive pedal, not a pre-amp.

[@suzannecoholic1467]

I suddenly have a desire to play Queensryche.... hmmmmm....

[@enricopallazzo2987]

Of course I ordered one from soldano cause every store was out of stock. Aaand of course FedEx immediately lost it and now I'm out the money plus have no pedal! YES

[@emmanuelabdonpizarro8158]

I’m a fan of steve lukather’s TONE. Since i dnt hv the money for the real Soldano amp, i can only afford this pedal. Need to save $ for this analog pedal though i already have the Neural DSP Soldano SLO 100 and the Neural DSP Archetype Tim Henson.

[@johnwhitmore2531]

One question I have on all these amp pedals is if your amp doesn't have an effects loop and your forced to go in the front do you not get the colours of both amps mixed. Not that that might not sound exactly what you want, but bit of a lottery depending on your amp.

[@upStomp]

According to Pete Thorn, this pedal should go through the front of the amp. It's not a pre-amp.

[@ericvinson4628]

No these pedals are typically meant to go into the front of an amp, not the fx return. You can certainly try that approach if your amp has an fx return or poweramp in, but by no means is that required.

[@daneues94]

Dig the Dokken

[@kenhull2386]

Dr Phil....Your demo sounds way better than the Soldano demo. They ought to be using your talents. Yours should actually increase their sales!

[@brianphelps1183]

Andertons did a good review comparing this to an actual Soldano. It could get close but was missing that low end.

[@guitardave]

Pete Thorn does an excellent job of comparing the pedal with a SLO in his video. Sounds really close.

[@IDGAF_PLUS]

Yeah watch Pete Thorn's review for a proper A/B with the SLO head.

[@allanflippin2453]

I'm wondering if they didn't try the "deep" switch on Andertons? That could have made a better match.

[@IDGAF_PLUS]

@@allanflippin2453 Well Andertons used different cabs with different speakers. Had they used the exact same cab and mic for both it would have been a better A/B.
