Blackstar HT Studio 20 Guitar Amplifier Head

A Pure Tube 20-Watt Head with Incredible Tone!
The HT Studio 20 amp head offers huge versatility for home, rehearsal or studio use and can be used with a variety of cabinets including the matching HT112 and HT212. The carefully voiced preamp coupled with a cathode-biased EL34 power amp, provides the user with the ability to create wonderfully lush valve tones. From pure boutique cleans, to mild overdrive that cleans up by backing off the guitar volume control, up to highly saturated distortion, this amp does it all.



Blackstar HT Studio 20 Head Features
  • 20 Watt valve amp head 
  • 2xECC83 preamp and 2xEL34 power tubes
  • Two footswitchable channels
  • Enhanced tone controls with Patent-Applied for Infinite Shape Feature (ISF)
  • Master volume and Digital reverb
  • Speaker emulated output and Effects loop
  • 1-way footswitch included
ISF (Infinite Shape Feature)
This fully interactive control allows you to infinitely adjust the response of the tone control network between any of the traditional voicings. In this way you can design your own sound and truly find the sound in your head. ISF works in conjunction with the Bass, Middle and Treble controls to give you access to infinite new sound possibilities.

Getting the Tone You Want
  1. Start with ISF set to half way
  2. Adjust Bass, Middle and Treble to taste
  3. Adjust ISF to find your sound (the lower the Mid the greater the effect)
HT Venue Series
A design to inspire working musicians, HT Venue Series provides valve amplification to support every performance situation. Authentic boutique cleans and super high gain overdrives are combined, in this innovative, hightly portable amp line.

Easy layout on the controls and well planned design.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
As said above. The tone out of the box is fantastic. Great clean, Awesome overdrive and the IFS feature gives a lot more tone options. Your sure to find the sound in your head.

Your general opinion of this product.
Love the sound and tone. The factory tubes are great. The emulated output is really nice for recording. For the budget I had this was by far the best choice. I am very happy with this amp.

Your general opinion of this product.
Well made, great tone, cranks loud enough to gig with, not too complicated, yet lots of tone options.

The stock TAD tubes were too bright and fizzy to me. Big improvement with some Svetlana, Mullard, or JJ's El34's, and a Sovtek 12AX7LPS in the gain channel. Now it has more warmth and smoother gain. Also nice to not have to re-bias the power tubes.
