Sommatone Slick-18

Designed exclusively for Earl Slick, David Bowie's guitarist, the Sommatone Slick-18 is a straight up “Class A” rock “n” roll machine. No overdrive pedal required with this amp! The Slick-18 is extremely responsive and touch sensitive - go from clean to dirty by adjusting your guitar's volume and pick attack. And don't let the name confuse you; the Slick-18 is not an 18-watt knock off!
