Magnatone is excited to announce an artist partnership with the legendary guitarist, SLASH. This will mark the first time in over 30 years that SLASH is collaborating with a new amplifier company.

After purchasing several Magnatone M80s as well as a Twilighter Stereo, SLASH began testing these both live and in the studio. Following a Magnatone factory visit and many conversations with Magnatone GM, Rod Washburn, the vision for the relationship was solidified. With this partnership, Magnatone and SLASH will collaborate to create the new Slash Signature 100-watt amplifierand 4 x 12” Speaker cabinet. The legendary guitarist will co-design the new models with long-time Magnatone engineer and tube amp guru, Obeid Khan.

“I used a Magnatone 50w M-80 in the studio earlier this year and was blown away by how it sounded. Since then, I’ve been working with Magnatone on a 100w version of the M-80 and I absolutely love what they have come up with. It’s killer,” said SLASH

“We could not be more excited that Slash embraced our quality engineering and commitment to tone excellence as the platform for designing his next generation of Signature amplifiers,” says Rod Washburn, General Manager, Magnatone.

“We are thrilled to welcome Slash to Magnatone and with his signature tone and style, our Master Collection of models will be taken to the next level,” adds Ted Kornblum, President & CEO, Magnatone.

The iconic, GRAMMY-winning, American rock guitarist, songwriter, and film producer-SLASH has amassed album sales of over 100 million copies, garnered a GRAMMY Award and seven GRAMMY nominations, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and is a New York Times Best-selling author. SLASH is considered one of the greatest rock guitar players of all time and one of the most recognizable faces in pop culture worldwide.

SLASH created signature sounds like the guitar riff on #1 hits for Guns N’ Roses “Sweet Child o’ Mine” and “Welcome To The Jungle.” SLASH has enjoyed global success and with his varied solo projects including SLASH’s Snakepit, Velvet Revolver, and his current band SLASH FT. MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS (SMKC)–which features Myles Kennedy (lead vocals), Brent Fitz (drums), Todd Kerns (bass/vocals) and Frank Sidoris (rhythm guitar)–who’ve been touring together worldwide for over a decade and have released four studio albums.

SLASH will perform with Magnatone amplifiers next year as SMKCwill officially kick off their international The River Is Rising-Rest of the World Tour ’24 on January 23, 2024. The global trek will visit 25 countries, and 39 cities across the globe. For the latest SMKCtickets and information, visit https://www.slashonline.com/tour/.

Expect more details to be announced soon around the forthcoming Slash Signature 100-Watt Model, due out in early 2024.
