Yeah the SLO is one of those amps where in person one with at least semi decent ears will get pretty quickly why it’s considered a great amp, but I still didn’t keep the 3 I had (including one from 1989)
For most of what I liked about it for leads I preferred the Purpleface and Cornford RK100. For riffs and more powerchord type stuff I prefer mostly those same 2 amps, Lenz Hot Chili, Steavens Poundcake, or the right modded or boosted stock Marshall. None of these amps 100% do exactly the SLO thing but after AB’ing so many times it just got hard to justify keeping them. I didn’t really have an answer of what scenarios I’d go with them anymore
