For sale: 1990s Soldano ROS-50 Reverb-O-Sonic 2x12" Combo. Serial # 212240-S. This amp is in excellent condition and has Black Snakeskin Tolex. This amp “goes to 11” but can easily range from sparkling clean sounds to warm bluesy sounds to searing lead tones. The amp comes with the original roller castors, the original one button foot switch, a set of replaced 5881 power tubes, and the power tubes that were in the amp when I bought it. I love this amp and will miss it, but it is time to let it go. I am including a custom Studio Slip padded cover with the amp. Local pick up only. Sorry, no trades.
Specifications: 50-Watt combo amp with 2x12” Eminence Legend speakers and a tube driven spring reverb. Two channels, each with independent volume and gain control. Both channels share the EQ section (presence, treble, mid, bass) and reverb. There is a FX loop on the back of the amp for floor and rack mounted effects. There is a jack on the back for an additional speaker. Channel 1 (Clean) has a Fender like sound, channel 2 (Crunch) sound has transparent gain. The amp has two 5881 power tubes and five 12AX7 preamp tubes. Dimensions: H 20“, W 26“, Depth 10.5", weight 63 lbs. The ‘240‘ on the serial number means that this was the 240th 2x12" Reverb-O-Sonic made.
From reviews: Numerous players have used Soldano amps including Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton, Warren Haynes, Richie Sambora, Steve Lukather and Mark Knopfler. These amps are built with the modern guitarist in mind. While Soldano is known for his high gain, this amp is quite versatile! Great bright, glassy clean tones, warm overdriven blues tones, and beautiful rich distortion. Crank the preamp section to get that high gain madness! Very flexible but also easy to use and dial in! Amazing amp!
