«  A nice combo! »

Amp 5w lamps. I refer to the data sheet or the manufacturer's website for more details.

UTILIZATION

Not really need a manual. One branch and one seeks the sound!

SOUNDS

I use it with a SG. I find it rather difficult to get a "crystalline" sound. Nevertheless I find rather precise clear sound, everything will reside in the attack or the volume settings of the guitar.
When it exceeds 12 on the clean channel it quick crunch with humbuckers, never tested with simple.
The overdrive channel is the overdrive (the coup!) Has an almost hi-gain distortion, typical metal. This is not my thing, but must recognize that it sends.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first tube amp. I hesitated with the Vox Valvetronix series, more versatile but less racy to start in my opinion.
I think the blackstar really good for rock, blues and even venturing metalheads field.
Some pedals will be a wise investment!
A good / q ratio of p to any lamp, it has to initiate particular sound, although I guess it sounds a 10,000 miles a Marshall or HIWATT!
