Last Friday night I picked up a super clean 2005 Soldano Astroverb16. I've always been intrigued by the simplicity and hotrodded Marshall aspect of these amps. I really wanted it for a side sound- something very different than my Fender and Fender clones. This thing rips with humbuckers. It can get a little fizzy if you set the preamp too high and the volume too low. Much to my surprise, it's actually a great sounding general purpose amp with a Telecaster. Keep the preamp no higher than 5 and twang away! I used it at a rehearsal tonight with the blues band that I'm in and got great results! Sorry, no decent pics at the moment.
