From Our Research Team:

Two Continents of Tone in One Amp!

Blackstar HT Venue series amplifiers are truly inspiring to play through. These astonishingly affordable amps and cabinets give you a boutique tone-shaping options you can use to dial in the character and expression of your sound. The HT Stage 60 all-tube combo guitar amplifier sports a pair of EL34s, delivering 60 watts of balanced power to a pair of Celestion speakers. The HT Stage 60 also sports a pair of ECC83s and an ECC82 in the front end, which allows each of its three independent channels to boast impressive character, ranging from boutique clean to intensely overdriven.



The clean channel features a voice switch, which lets you select between a British Class A and a US dynamic clean tone. One of the coolest things about the HT Venue series is its Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) circuit, which allows you to dial the overdrive channels from extremely American-sounding to extremely British-sounding and anywhere in the middle. What's more, the overdrive channels also feature a voice switch, which selects between a more aggressive modern sound and a flatter classic sound. All all of these tone-shaping options, virtually no tone is out of reach for the Blackstar HT Stage 60!

Amazing amp

Music Background: 16 years playing blues, rock, alternative, and prog metal.
I was on the hunt for a Mesa or Hughes and Kettner when I came across the 40 watt version at a local shop...i ordered the 60 watt from Sweetwater the very next day! If you are looking for alot of mid ... read more [+]range crunch with tons of power...look no further. This amp is very easy to dial in and has very workable features, and tons of all tube tone. The clean is amazing, channel 1 distortion is articulate, and channel 2 distortion is the lead tone ive been searching for! I cant see paying twice the money when this WILL bring the growl and finesse. Im very picky and Im very happy! close [-]

The clean channel can go from vox like to fender with the voice switch. The overdrive channels can go from vintage Marshall to modern mesa like gain and everything in between. The range this amp has i... read more [+]s amazing and brings out all the qualities of a guitar. Very versatile with the three footswitchable channels. Build quality is sturdy, no cheap parts here. Reverb, effects loop and line out all sound solid. You'd be hard pressed to find a more versatile valve amp for the money. Thanks to my sales engineer Ryan Murphy for helping me find the amp I have been looking for. close [-]
