Magnatone Blackout Series Slash SL-100 100-Watt Signature Guitar Amplifier Head

Elevate Your Sound with the Magnatone Blackout Series Slash SL-100 100-Watt Signature Guitar Amplifier Head

Wrapped in a sleek, stage-stunning black 100% cotton croc textile (that ages beautifully), this outstanding Slash-designed amp has the same, hand-built specs, components and features of the limited edition green anaconda SL-100 Head and SL- 4x12 Speaker Cabinet, but comes out roaring with its own Blackout rock and roll attitude.

• Developed in conjunction with Slash
• Footswitchable LO and HI Gain modes
• British master volume with treble, middle, bass and presence
• Tube-buffered Effects loop send and return​
• Compensated line out

Like all Magnatone amps in the Master Collection (and Traditional Collection), the Magnatone Slash Signature SL-100 head is a 100-watt, made-in-the-USA, all-tube amp. Every single component – from caps and transformers to cabinets and handles – is sourced in the States.

Those facts aren't lost on Slash, a fervent tone alchemist, who, along with long-time Magnatone engineer and tube amp guru, Obeid Khan, designed The SL-100. In short, it's a monster – the most powerful Magnatone to date, delivering enough unbelievable tone, gain and headroom to fill a stadium (which you may get to experience for yourself on Slash's next tour).

The Blackout Edition is powered by four EL-34 tubes, delivering exceptional headroom, clarity, and the grit-n-grind tone Slash has made his own, both live and in the studio. The SL-100 pre- amp uses four 12AX7/ECC83 tubes with two distinct gain modes. Players can switch between "LO" and "HI" settings via a control panel slide switch or one-button footswitch (included).
