- Introducing the new Soldano Astro 20, the latest creation from the legendary Mike Soldano, mastermind behind the iconic SLO series. Bridging the gap between traditional valve amps and new digital amp technology, the Astro 20 gives you user friendly digital control and IR utilisation, but with old school balls-to-the-wall Soldano tube growl.
We’ve really enjoyed dialling in on the features of this amp, it’s a versatile solution to a lot of modern problems. Any new amp featuring the illustrious Soldano name has a lot to live up to, but the Astro 20 certainly delivers! Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

It will be interesting to see what others companies will do now. Hoping Marshall release something similar in a 20-30 watt format. A jvm satriani with built in IR’s etc would be epic
Great demo🎸👍
great demo
Great amp, and a very good and expressive player too! He gets all the juice out of the amp, unlike many others demoing amplifiers
Amen
Great amp. Great player!
I have to agree with the title...this thing is what the SLO should be aspiring to in 2024. I skipped out on the SLO simply because you don't have access to all of it's capabilities on the floor. 3 channels, but only two of them are footswitchable.
I REALLY wanna get the Astro 20 right-f'n-now, and I can, but what makes me hesitate is the fact that I get this aching feeling 2024 is about to EXPLODE with so much new and awesome gear, I'm hoping by the time mid-January hits, that maybe a 50 watt, full-sized version gets announced.
For me the 20 watts is just rite, still too loud to full send at home which is how I use my amps, I have only one full size amp,the mark v 90w havnt plugged into it in over 10 years it's still brand new just want to keep for some reason. I then bought the mini rectifier ,then the Mark v 25, because I only use them for jamming with a drummer in my basement and lower watt amps are still crazy loud through a 4x12 for that, and for recording. I now have 11 lunchbox amps and still looking for another. I'm hooked. They really are loud and full enough for most people these days
Great demo! I’m a Boogie guy (Mark 5:25) but damn…this little amp sounds great and so versatile !!!
you know it's a top-grade presentation when you can add something significant to selling a piece of military-grade hardware that sells herself...viva la Astro 20 !!! enjoy the flight
Damn that guy plays well
GAWD DAMN. I just bought a Fillmore 25 to add to the Mark V 25. I may need this one too.
I have a mkV:25 and was thinking of doing a similar thing... how's the Fillmore compared to the MkV25? Do you like the Fillmore? Anything suck about it? I love the violin lead tone the MkV25 puts out... but i wish it had a bit more tight & solid low end.
I love that the Fillmore has two identical channels with each having 3 settings. I run one on Clean and the other on High. The clean is setup to take distortion pedals and so forth. The High runs on its own and I select it via the footswitch. I'd say that the knobs, especially the presence, seem to not do much. The MarkV:25's knobs are responsive. However, it is very difficult to hear/notice any noticeable difference when, for example, going from1 to 10, especially with the presence knob. The MarkV is more versatile. However, I do enjoy the Fillmore's clean channel warm/clear tones. I don't use its built-in spring reverb. It is too sensitive when the amp is fully cranked.

Astro 🐶 20 is the new king!
Does this amplifier have enough power to rehearse with the full band using a 2x12 or 4x12 speaker?
It certainly does! Don't be put off by the 20 watt rating. This amp is loud!
How this Soldano Astro-20 watts compare with the EVH 5150iii 50 watts?
Next question: in a live gig at a medium-size pub with a loud drummer and NO mic on my speakers, could this Soldano Astro-20 watts keep up with a loud drummer in terms of volume?
You’d get kicked out if you crunk it up.
Nothing is better than a SLO, but this has my curiosity.
what guitar is that?
Brand is called acacia
@@Photographiecp nope, it is a Tom Anderson
@@mrnorbotron3308 oh sorry, my bad. had the acacia in mind…
Interesting to see speaker IRs showing up on a tube amp. You can go straight to front of house without lugging cumbersome speaker cabinets.
What a luxury 'eh! Perhaps the perfect solution for the modern gigging player?
@@PeachGuitars Am I right in assuming changing the IRs have no bearing on the speaker outputs when used with a cab?
I think it would have sounded better without the reverb
Is it loud enough to hang with a real drummer? Anyone?
I see that this is going to be the buzz for “exciting new amps” coming out from now on - computer connectivity. *yawn* That thing is an absolutely killer sounding amp, but I’m not going to pay the higher prices inherent from something having MIDI, USB, IRs, or any other digital bells and whistles built into it. I’d actually prefer to see them just make a perfect digital SLO (in the style of Fender’s ToneMasters) with all the digital connectivity in it for those who want that.
Too bad its so damn expensive
It's priced competitively.
Soldano isn't known for cheap budget gear.
SolDAMNos are good amps for blues and jazz, Marshall still makes the biggest baddest amps for rockin out. Just sayin
$2000 for a 20 watt? May be a great little amp but there are many great higher watt options available.
These companies keep pricing themselves up and up. Bidenomics perhaps?
What about if you don't want a higher wattage amp? For such a feature rich and usable amp, it's actually priced incredibly competitively.
Another overpriced amp from Soldano!
Not enough emphasis on the gain sounds ! The Cleans sounds are good ! He should have cut back on the treble a little? I do love the use of the Anderson !
You can see it's not his first time playing a high gain channel. Surprised he didn't spend more time on it too.
Never his stuff is too inconsistent. And WAY OVER PRICED.THERE ARE TOO MANY GREAT NAKERS TODAY TO SPEND THOUSANDS ON THIS CRAP.
😅what a muppet comment
I'm aktually quite convinced to want one. Seems to be exactly my design and there is no other like that. Tell me one that doesn't break the bank. 3ch all tube and so damn good and flexible
Inconsistent? Soldano has a great reputation, it’s hand made in the US by boutique amp distro ( same as Friedman, Tone King etc. ) that kinda stuff isn’t cheap these days, don’t blame them blame inflation, cost of parts and availability, labor cost, thats all our fault as a society due to bad policy. Any equivalent amp builder is going to charge $2-4k plus for something like this if its made in US/ Europe/ Australia. You want something cheap and “ equivalent “ you’d have to go Asian and get a Wangs or something/ Jet City and it will not match in quality or warranty likely.
You’re delusional
You high on something that makes you think illogical? Soldano has always been a high end brand and has made some of the best amps ever made for high gain. That's not just my opinion. You must live under a rock or you can't afford one so you hate on them steming from jealousy. My two best guesses as to your problem
