Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) dials in your drive tones
The tube-powered Blackstar HT-1RH MK III packs a massive spread of tones by virtue of its Blackstar's Infinite Shape Feature (ISF). When turned fully counterclockwise, you'll lend an American characteristic to your voice, with a tight bottom end and aggressive middle range. Turned all the way to the right, you'll enjoy more of a British vibe with a woodier sound that's less aggressive. However you dial in the HT-1RH MK III, you'll enjoy a musical response that commands attention.
