Product Rating Product Review This thing is different when just using it stock, Blackstar voiced it somehow. But it’s good, I bought the head and was going to use my existing speaker cabinets, to try and save a few bucks. Not gonna happen, you’ll need a Blackstar cabinet, they are built specifically for each other. Plus you get the choice of closed cab, or open cab operation. I like the cab open, but overall very nice setup and it looks good to.

Product Review First off, I love Blackstars amps. They make very awesome amps that are so versatile and work for so many genres of music. This HT20 is the perfect size in my opinion because it's loud enough to keep up with a band, or be used on a stage, and with the 2 watt option can be quiet while still digging into the tubes. Great amp all around!

Product Review I had the combo version of this....but...really wanted the tones of the JJN 20 watt. Well...after much searching I found the reason Jared's amp sounds the way it does. His amps have ECC82/12AU7W/6189 pre-amp tubes...instead of ECC83's. Nice...I have a set of TUNG-SOL ECC82's. Also, Try JJ ECC803s's.....long plate ECC83's. with gold pins. VERY quiet idle and Gain Hiss. GREAT DRIVE tones. B Goode.

Product Review Purchased a few months ago from a different online retailer, and the amp had problems from the start. The head died after a week. While the retailer did refund me, I was a little put off. Decided to try again with AMS, and I am glad I did. Fast shipping, and the amp was in perfect condition when I received it. All the reasons I originally purchased it are coming true this time….great tone and amazing versatility. Very happy with this head!

Product Review I previously purchased the Blackstar 1W 1x8 Tube Guitar Combo Amp and loved the sound; at which point I decided to purchase the HT-20 with the matching 2x12 cab. Wow! The sound exceeded my expectations. I have had a difficult time putting my guitar down and walking away. The head also delivers a nice clean channel; however, I will not use it often as this amp was bought for Metal and it delivers. The 2W/20W switch makes evening practices a possibility without sacrificing sound. The 2W delivers plenty of sound; however, sometimes it is fun to crank the 20W (the 2W fills the room with sound the 20W is an exclamation point on the amp!) I look forward to purchasing a 100W in the future. Love my Blackstar Amps!

Product Review I've owned several Blackstar Heads and two Combos; I rely upon the two new MkII Series Blackstars I have more than any other amps, ever before!

Product Review This head has enough power for most clubs and has enough channels and voices to allow you to play any genre of music. It is portable and light yet powerful and gig/studio ready. You can't go wrong with this Blackstar head. Highly recommended.

Great upgrade for Blackstar

Product Review I had a blackstar HT5R and tried this as an upgrade. Liked the old one a lot and love this one! I’ve tried several other amps at home, Orange, Marshall, etc. and kept with the blackstar. The tones on the new one are definitely improved but has a similar sound. The master volume is the best feature. You can dial in so much at any volume. You can actually push the clean channels and get some nice dirt at reasonable volumes. For the money I don’t think anything touches this amp. I run it through 2 x 112 cabs for home. Plenty loud, awesome metal tone and OD with headroom to spare. The adjustable watts is great to give you more tonal options.

Product Review Don’t hesistate, I just got this and man does it deliver excellence. Blackstar hit the nail on the head with the HT20 Mkii. Great cleans, nasty gain (yes even metal) and perfect blues. That studio quality reverb is absolutely beautiful and a great touch. Plenty of options such as usb recording out effects options for cabs etc. this is definitely meant for giging and home/practice. Super loud and amazing clarity when paired with the new 212 cab by blackstar! Why are you still reading this? Buy it already!
