What is the Solano?
« on: March 16, 2009, 10:44:49 pm »
Hello,

I was looking at the Sunn Museum and there is a Solano listed.  I have never heard of it before and I don't see it listed in the Catalog Thread.  Where does it fit in and does anyone have one?

I think that "Solano" is actually a "Solarus".

Do you mean that the Museum pics are actually mis-labeled,  or that the amp is the same as a Solarus?

Didn't Sunn sometimes give amps different names for foreign/overseas markets ?   Is it possible that it's a Solarus re-named Solano for export?

I hadn't thought about export models, although the very few export models I've seen have had the same names, but funky labeling.
