Blackstar HT-5R MkII-1 x 12″ 5 Watt Black Valve Guitar Combo Amplifier with Reverb- The Blackstar HT-5R MkII-1 x 12″ Combo Amplifier uses a low-powered push-pull design with ECC83 and 12BH7 tubes that produces the same types of crunch and break-up characteristics of a traditional 100W amp, but at a much lower volume. Its emulated stereo speaker output allows you to get the valve tone straight to tape or disk, or through headphones. A 4×12 / 1×12 voicing switch allows you to change the tonal characteristics of the emulated signal between two emulated cabinet types.
Revoiced channels for top-tier tone
When Blackstar hit the drawing board for their Blackstar HT-5R MkII-1 x 12″ Combo Amplifier, not only did they reference their own amps’ popular tones, but they also wanted to match or beat the tones of electric guitar amplifiers costing up to five times more. Move over to the gain channel, and you’ll take note of how great the sound is throughout the whole range of overdrive. The original HT-5R was an incredibly popular amp. With the MkII, Blackstar beats it.
Blackstar HT-5R MkII-1 x 12″ Combo Amplifier Patented Infinite Shape Feature
The Blackstar HT-5R MkII is packed with a massive variety of tube tones by virtue of Blackstar’s Infinite Shape Feature (ISF). This exclusive feature shifts the EQ curves of the amplifier’s Bass, Middle, and Treble controls. When turned fully counterclockwise, you’ll lend an American characteristic to your voice with a tight bottom end and aggressive middle. Turned all the way to the right, you’ll enjoy more of a British vibe. Beyond that, four different operating modes can be accessed via a pair of Voice switches, unleashing both vintage and modern voicings for each channel.
Loaded with player-friendly additions
The tone of the Blackstar HT-5R MkII-1 x 12″ Combo Amplifier is well worth the price of admission. But Blackstar knows what players want. And they loaded this already great-sounding all-tube combo with enough features to ensure that it quickly becomes your go-to amp. The revoiced reverb offers more depth and detail than ever before. Nailing cranked tones at appropriate volume levels is easy thanks to the onboard power reduction circuit. Beyond that, the emulated line-out and USB audio output will make you your sound engineer’s best friend.
