Soldano
Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Dickey Betts, Lou Reed, and Matthias Jabs, to name a few, mythologize Mike’s guitar amplifiers. Stevie Ray Vaughan asked Mike to build him an SLO-100 (Find the story from Guitar World here). Ask anyone of them – or any other guitarist fortunate enough to play a Soldano amp – and they will tell you the same thing: A Soldano guitar amplifier is in and of itself, a musical instrument – and much more. Actually, what they will tell you is this: A Soldano amp is an instrument of liberation.
It all began with the first Soldano prototype guitar amplifier, which Mike named Mr. Science. It’s a piece of plywood with a bunch of electronic components stuck on, a longtime experiment in The Quest for Tone, a guitar amp with a life all its own. (Today, Mr. Science is in Mike’s personal collection – complete with tone markings made by Mark Knopfler and Peter Frampton when they were borrowing it while waiting for their amps to be delivered).
