Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Yes! This is my first product from Blackstar but the amp seems like its made well.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
Only had it for 2 days now but i'm sure it'll hold up well considering I take pretty darn good care of my equipment.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
I have a Fender Deluxe Hot Rod and wanted something small for home use or small gigs where I could mike the 1x12 cabinet I'm using with this head. I was really shocked at how loud 1 watt is.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
My only gripe is I wish this head had a foot switch for the o.d channel but considering I have about $1200.00 worth of pedals i'll deal with it.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
The tone(s) are great! Like I said I have some really nice pedals but alone, this amp can get some really great sounds!
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Seems nice we'll see how well it holds up

Reliability

General
Your general opinion of this product.
Honestly this is the best practice and recording amp I have ever used !!! the ISF feature is a really cool idea.And it also seems alot more powerful then just 1 watt.

controls don't get any easier than the HT1RH.
Tone

Tonewise this little amp can take you from California to England quickly using the ISF FEATURE
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Excellent finish on the head. It's like a good mix of vintage and modern in a nice little package.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
