BLackstar is one of the best amplifier companies in the world right now. They have been really pumping the market with their products with artists jumping on for endorsements all the time.
This amp is exactly the same amp as the famous combo HT-5. This one is just a head version and you will need an extra speaker cabinet to go along with this amp. You get all the same great features and tone as the combo but just in a lunch box size amplifier head.

SOUNDS
I like this amp with just about any guitar you decide to throw at it. I particularly like this amp with a solid Gibson Les Paul. I feel that the two were fit for each other. Is is natural because the voicing of this amp is very Marshall-esque and British flavored so this amp would work well much like a Marshall would with a Gibson guitar. It seems like perhaps the builder of this amp voicing the amp towards the Les Paul because the tones of it are just flat out amazing!
The clean channel is very good and very reminiscent of an old Fender deluxe amp. When You crank up the volume you get a great classic rock tone ala AC/DC or Led Zeppelin.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall this is a very solid amp for the money. At new these amps come in at around $329, which isn't a bad price for this high quality amplifier. I would recommend this amp to anyone who wants a great sounding tube amp that doesn't want to pay an arm and a leg to get one. This is a great amp to record with and an excellent amp to practice with in the home or office.
