- Hey Rockers! 🔥 Get ready to embark on a sonic journey with me as I put the Hotone Ampero II Stage head-to-head against the mighty Soldano SLO amp! 💥 In this epic showdown, I'll be comparing their tones side by side and challenging YOU to spot the difference.
Can you believe it? The Ampero comes in at a fraction of the price compared to the real deal Soldano SLO, with the Ampero at $700 and the Soldano ringing in at a whopping $3000! 💰 But does price always dictate tone quality?
Join me as I dive into high-gain territory, crafting killer riffs and blistering solos to showcase the capabilities of both setups. Then, we'll switch gears and explore the crunchy goodness of their respective crunch channels.
But here's the twist - even I couldn't tell the difference at times! 😱 It's a true testament to the incredible technology packed into the Ampero.
So, can YOU spot the imitation? Or will the lines between the Ampero and the Soldano blur into one seamless sonic experience? Tune in to find out, and let's rock out together!

Bought the stage based on your videos, hope you do more videos with it. you're awesome!
Your playing is such an homage to Lynch; really great stuff!
Been having my stage 2 for almost 2 months and it looks, feels, and SOUNDS awesome! You can pretty much do everything you will ever need with this little animal. Have a Headrush Mx5 and while that was my entry into this technology and i like it a lot and you get SO MUCH bang for your buck with it..... it was way easier to get the sounds i wanted with the ampero stage 2 out of the box. Great videos by the way!🤘
Same experience here1
I only guessed one hahaha is almost exactly the same. Awesome video Jay. Absolutly love it.
At first, my thought was that number 2 sounded less correct, more "digital".
That was interesting.
I'm definitely saving for one of these.
Love your videos brother! Can you do a video of the Ampero 2 stage through a FRFR live run.. I may consider leaving Head Rush for this pedal..
Great comparison. Nearly impossible to differentiate and impossible for me to tell which is which.
I did also some AB comparison between my original Ampero and a few Synergy modules (SLO, Friedman and IIcp). It is also very close and sounds crazy good when running back to the fx return of tube amp and cab.
i just purchased the AS2 and will show up soon. after seeing this video today, glad i did. almost impossible to split the difference between real and faux.
Fantastic! Enjoy it when it arrives. It is a very cool unit. Have an awesome day!
Well.. I guessed wrong on the first clip. Both sound great though! I agree that the connection is often lacking but boy it's close now.
Dave Friedman raves about these!
I could tell a difference but both sounded really good. If I had to pick one that I liked more, it would be the B track that sounded better.
Track 1& 3 B had a warmer feel to them. And I could tell it was the amp, but track 2 B I thought was going to be the same amp. Which goes to show just how similar they are.
@@jeffallen3382I bet lowering the treble a bit on the ampero would make it sound very similar to the amp in track 1 and 3.
@@mangoesDB most likely. I agree.
I was unsure on track 1, both sounded amazing, but track 2 had a nasty hiss on B and that gave it away.
Sound the same. awesome!
Im thinking A is the amp...on the upside Jay, I snagged an Ampero Mini and its all your fault! Nevermind boxing up my Jet City 22H for Epic Amplification...
So close it's hard to tell which Is which. That being the case the Ampero II Stage at $700 is a much, much, better choice compared to the $3000 of the Soldano. We're seeing the dawning of a new era for guitar players...
They are so close it's negligible, but if I had to bet, I'd say A is the amp.
Fizz on A in isolated, no Fizz on B, in the mix no dif!
Then on track 3 opposite!
25 seconds in and i think A is the real amp, but after listening to track 2 i questioned it.
A SOUNDS A BIT FOR FORWARD AND DEFINED IN THE HIGHMIDS
Track one was a little harder
In a recording is very difficult to perceive the differences, because both signals become a digital signal before gettin back to sound. In a live situation the valve tubes shine much warmer and more intricate.
With a loadbox and an ir the comparison is pointless. At least when you want to replace an analog signal chain with a digital device.
The difference is there, but negligible.
For me,guitar A has a little more shine than guitar B
