Blackstar

Whether a beginner or a pro when you play we want you to have the best possible playing experience. That’s why the same R&D team responsible for our professional amps also designed the ID:Core V3. Unique innovations and connectivity give guitarists the best possible sound from the first time they plug in.

Incredible tone and immersive Super Wide Stereo sound will inspire your playing. Guitarist-friendly controls combine with the power of programmability for an amazingly versatile tonal range from pristine clean to high gain. Live streaming to your smartphone is easy using a common TRRS cable and built-in USB connectivity allows you to easily record directly to your computer. Our free Architect software gives you access to our state-of-the-art Cab Rig Lite advanced cabinet simulator, along with deep editing and patch management.

The HT-1 are the perfect studio and practice guitar amps, packing all the great tone and innovative features of the award-winning HT-5 valve amp into a 1 Watt format.

The patent-applied-for ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) circuit on the guitar amp gives you infinite adjustment over the characteristics of the tone control network and takes you from the USA to the UK and anywhere in between. Add a fully specified speaker emulated output, MP3 / Line Input, plus an 4-16Ω speaker output and you have everything you need for recording or practicing.

Blackstar won the coveted MIPA 'Best Amp Award' at the Frankfurt Musikmesse 2011. These awards are voted for by 120 leading music magazines from around the world and in this hotly fought category with some other big names, the HT-1 guitar amps won the award.

Stereo Reverb

On the HT-1R models

The HT-1R models all feature Stereo Reverb. The Reverb control sets the overall level of the reverb effect. With the control fully counter clockwise there will be no reverb. Turning the control clockwise will increase the amount of reverb.

ISF (Infinite Shape Feature)

The Sound In Your Head

The patented ISF control works with the Bass, Middle and Treble controls to give you access to infinite new sound possibilities from the USA to the UK and everywhere in-between. In this way you can design your own sound and truly find the sound in your head.

 

MP3/Line Input

Jam to your favourite song

A stereo MP3 / Line Input has been added to the HT-1 allowing the user to play a backing track or similar, through the amp while practising / recording.

Emulated Output

Emulates a speaker cabinet

This output emulates the tonal characteristics of a guitar speaker cabinet and provides a natural valve overdrive tone for connection to a recording device or mixing desk, and for use with headphones.

After much demand from Blackstar customers we are excited to introduce the stunning HT Club 40 MkII 6L6 as an ongoing alternative to the standard HT Club 40 MkII. The 6L6 power valve has characteristic glassy clean tones, crunchy overdrives and smooth mid-range, making these power valves the perfect match for the dynamic HT Club 40 MkII.

HT Club 40 MkII 6L6 sees the standard award-winning 40W combo powered by a pair of 6L6 valves, driving a 12” Celestion Seventy-80 speaker. Equipped with 2 channels and 4 footswitchable voices the HT Club 40 MkII is the ideal gigging valve amp for club sized venues. Now this ground-breaking amplifier takes a different tonal direction with 2 x 6L6 valves powering dynamic clean and crunch tones and a flexible 10% Power Reduction to create the ideal club performance, home practice and studio recording amplifier in one amazing combo.
