When it comes to combining valve power with modern technological advancements, musicians from around the world agree that Blackstar is in a class of their own. Dedicated to providing you with the ultimate tools to discovering your ideal tone, Blackstar's team of musicians and music lovers take pride in constructing tube combo guitar amps for every playing style. No doubt, whether you're a touring professional or an amateur enthusiast, Blackstar has a tube combo guitar amp for you, right here in this section.
So which one is right for you? That will depend on what kind of features, as well as how much volume, you're looking for in an amplifier. For example, if you want something compact for practicing or recording, then go with the HT-1. Offering incredible tube sound in a portable format, this amp uses the dual-triode ECC82 wired in a push-pull circuit to produce the crunchy overdrive of a 100-watt amp, but at a much lower volume. Backstage or home in your living room, the HT-1 is a great little unit to hone your craft with.
Now, for those who really want to make a lasting impression at their next live performance, the Venue Series HT-60 combo amp is the answer you've been waiting for. Delivering 60 watts of tube strength through 2 high-quality Celestian speakers, this amp contains both "boutique" and "modern" modes, along with its own tone control option that provides a wide range of clean sounds. Additionally, the overdrive channel has its own EQ section, and a "Voice" switch that allows the nature of the channel to be changed. Overall, the HT-60 is just what you need to drive your crowd into a frenzy night after night.
By simply taking the time to learn a skill that can be shared and enjoyed with others, you deserve to showcase your talents with an amp that perfectly represents your own unique influences, and that's exactly what Blackstar amps do best. Using the patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) control, Blackstar amps give you total adjustment over the characteristics of your tone, so you can enjoy doing what you do best with the exact sound you've always had in mind.
