I was going post the same exact thing when I read Cliff's post. I also remember him saying how he didn't like the SLO (real amp).
Did you change your mind Cliff, or is there something different about the Axe-Fx's SLO sim that makes you prefer it to the real thing?
I thought I remember you saying you didnt like the SLO much (the real amp, but basically the same thing)
I concur on the SLO100, super underrated here....AND the Fryette D60
I remember repairing Cliffs SLO. Cant remember what was wrong with it, Ive repaired a number of his amps and it was a while back. Maybe he made the comment before it was sorted.
Dunno.
The secret of the SLO is the arch enemy of most you guys, volume. It has to be run hard with less preamp gain. It transforms into a gorgeous amp like that. It was designed as a large stage/stadium amp. Cue Warren Haynes.
Running one at your local pub is going to give results that are very thin and buzzy.
I would imagine the best tones from the axe model will probably be achieved by increasing the master and backing off the preamp , just like the real deal.

WTF does that even mean, Fabio? How about some respect.

Yup, this is why the MV defaults to a higher setting than other MV amps. (BTW, the filament supply resistors were burnt. You surmised that someone probably tried to run EL34s in it).

Sorry I blew up.
I'm a fan boy. :geek
