While many pedals chase the unique sounds of the legendary SLO amplifier, the SLO PLUS PEDAL truly embodies them…all of them. The SLO PLUS puts the entire SLO experience right on your pedalboard.
In 1987, Mike Soldano created the now legendary Super Lead Overdrive 100-watt tube head, setting the standard for modern high-gain amplification for nearly four decades, and is still one of the most coveted amps in history today. The SLO’s Overdrive channel quickly found itself backing renowned rock guitarists like Mick Mars (Motley Crue), Warren de Martini (Ratt), and Howard Leese (Heart), with the amp’s gorgeous Normal channel becoming the first choice for non-metal stalwarts such as Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Warren Haynes, Gary Moore, and Lou Reed.
A Complete SLO in a Pedal
The SLO PLUS features the same cascading gain design as the SLO-100 amp. The original SLO pedal took the industry by storm. With the addition of the SLO Normal channel (crunch mode), the SLO PLUS now adds this instantly recognizable crunch tone with absolute authority.
The SLO PLUS can go from a rich but aggressive distortion, through complex barking crunch tones, to stunningly responsive cleans with the tap of your toe.
Double the Versatility
The SLO PLUS delivers all of the amp’s pristine and responsive tones while giving you complete control. Each channel features independent Master (output) and Preamp (gain) knobs and a perfectly tuned, amp-like 3-band EQ. The SLO PLUS also includes a Presence control and Deep switch to optimize the pedal’s high and low frequencies to match your equipment.
More Than Just an Overdrive
Whether leaning on it’s cleans, overdrive, or both, the SLO PLUS makes a fantastic preamp when running into a power amplifier or IR loader.
While many pedals chase the SLO sound, the SLO PLUS transcends them all. With the SLO PLUS you can enjoy the entire SLO experience right from your pedalboard.
