The Blackstar Series One MKII 100W Tube Guitar Amp Head is the next evolution of Blackstar’s iconic Series One line, renowned for its crushing high-gain tones and superior performance. Built for metal guitarists who demand the best in tone, power, and versatility, the Series One MKII offers a range of advanced features designed to elevate your playing.

Whether on stage or in the studio, the Series One MKII is the ultimate tool for modern guitarists seeking tonal perfection.

Best-in-Class High-Gain Overdrive Channels

The Series One MKII features two high-gain overdrive channels designed to deliver tight, focused tones that cut through any mix. With footswitchable modes for Clean, Crunch, Super Crunch, and Overdrive, this amp provides the versatility needed to navigate a range of genres, from classic rock to modern metal. The ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) control allows seamless tonal customization, taking you from American to British amp styles with ease, while Blackstar’s DPR (Dynamic Power Reduction) lets you achieve pure tube output distortion at any volume, down to 10 watts.

Built for Durability and Performance

Crafted to withstand the rigors of touring, the Series One MKII features a seam-welded 1.6mm steel chassis and finger-jointed birch ply cabinets for extreme durability. The amp’s plated-through double-sided PCBs increase mechanical integrity, while the anodes of the output valves are handwired and sleeved with neoprene for increased reliability. Whether you’re playing small venues or large stages, this amp is designed to deliver consistent, powerful performance night after night.

With six modes across four channels, this amp delivers a wide range of tones, from clean and bright to thick and saturated.
