Overview

Experience the magic of valves in a compact and convenient combo amp.

The Blackstar HT-1R MK III 1W tube guitar combo amp packs professional valve tone into a compact, portable package. Perfect for home practice, this mini amp utilizes a pair of ECC83 and ECC82 preamp tubes to produce the warm, rich harmonic complexity that only valves can provide. Two footswitchable channels give you a palette of clean and overdriven sounds to inspire your creativity.

Iconic Tube Tone in a Tiny Package

Don't let its diminutive size fool you—the HT-1R MK III delivers full, expressive tube tone that's ideal for practice and recording. The 1W power section, driven by a pair of ECC83 and ECC82 preamp tubes, gives you lush valve overdrive and articulation without rattling the walls. Built-in digital reverb adds depth and dimension to your tone. Thanks to the patented ISF control, you can blend between American and British-voiced sounds to craft your signature tone.

Versatile Performance for Any Style

With two footswitchable channels, each with two voices, the HT-1R MK III provides a versatile tonal palette for any music style. The clean channel offers a pristine foundation for adding pedal effects, while the overdrive channel serves up a range of crunch and lead tones. Quickly switch between channels to move from rhythm to lead or toggle the voices on a single channel to change tones within a song. The ISF control provides even more tonal variation.

Shape Your Sound

Blackstar's Infinite Shape Feature enables you to precisely tailor the HT-1R MK III's tone to your needs. Blend between American voicings with assertive mids and British voicings with scooped mids and looser low end. Subtly tweak the EQ to complement your guitar and playing technique or radically transform the amp's character with the turn of a single knob. The ISF greatly expands this compact amp's tonal versatility.

Record and Practice Anywhere

The CabRig DSP cabinet simulation outputs your tone directly to headphones, USB and recording equipment. This allows silent practice, easy recording and reamping your tracks through different virtual cabinets. A line out sends your tone to an external power amp and speaker cab for live performance. The HT-1R MK III's portable size and built-in carry handle make it ideal for rehearsing anywhere or taking to small gigs. Experience professional valve tone on the go with this miniature marvel.
