I clicked them all - just some wizard pics and only the first one was cool or anything

Actually, no. Not in real life. By that I mean not in hundred watt stack world. It's a nice pedal and all and I have no doubt that it gets the small amp studio gangstas tingling in the ol' hangdown but it's a far cry from the realness. I have never seen a youtube of the thing so that's not what I'm going by here.

As far as the two bad tubes in an Orange goes, the guys over at Soldano claim that the earliest OR's had a faulty phase inverter design and that two power tubes will get run way harder than the other two and in turn fail. From what they've said this is only in the earliest of earlies (Sergio I think you have a '69? if so that'd qualify) and the Orange people (Matamp? I don't know my history very good) fixed it fairly early on as well. Those guys (Soldano) treat this like common knowledge but I haven't seen much talk around the web about anything other than pre'74 and post '74 PI design which is apparently a different issue altogether. If you think this may be the problem and you don't find info that gets you anywhere you might try calling Soldano on the phone. 206-781-4636

Even though i work 2 minutes from the famed Denmark street guitar shops, i hate trying stuff in those shops, not only do they have so much attitude, but as soon you want to try something they assume you want to buy it and its a fuckin negotiation just to leave the shop without buying it!

Too each their own. I thought it sounded enough like an SLO to be called the SLOstortion. And remember that I did say "Does it sound like a Soldano SLO100? Yeah, but it's still a pedal and still limited as such."

And most people think of Soldano as modified Marshall amps, which they are in a roundabout way, but I remember Jeff from Matamp telling me that Mike learned a lot by working on OR120's and other Orange gear.
