Studio 10 6L6 deploys a 6L6 output valve and an ECC83 in the preamp stage to give this amp a distinctively American bright clean sound and searing lead tone. The built-in overdrive circuit - inspired by our renowned HT-Drive pedal - takes the lead tone from dynamic crunch to a singing, smooth legato and remains composed and graceful.
Features:
Emulated Output (Mono, taken after the power amp)
Series effects loop
Effects level switch
Footswitch (Supplied 1-button to activate boost feature, or use an optional 2-button for boost or overdrive and reverb)

Huge tone. Perfect for practice and production. The Blackstar HT-5R MKII Valve Combo is a tonally rich amplifier. The HT-5R is compact in size and emits a full, warm tone - it is perfect for practising or laying down tracks in the studio. Despite the HT-5Rs minimal proportions, it delivers a very impactful sound. Even when pushed to its limits, it stays vibrant and clear.
As well as the classic British valve warmth, the sharp American style tone is offered up by the 12BH7 valve. A powerful voicing system allows for huge tonal variety. Youll always have the right tone for the job. All you must do is tap the footswitch, for massive gains in sound and diversification in tone. Cleans, overdrives, whatever your style, it all sounds incredible.
The USB and XLR outputs mean you can get studio quality recording straight into your production system and a handy power switch that reduces the power to 10 gives you the same Blackstar quality but at a lower volume. The perfect practice amp - housed in a boutique design and constructed with care.
Equipped with 2 channels and 4 modes the HT Club 40 is the ideal gigging valve amp for club sized venues. The 40W EL34 driven power amplifier has amazing punch and dynamics that will easily cut through in a full band situation. Switching to the amazing ISF equipped overdrive channel accesses a further two modes - classic crunch and super saturated lead.
The FLY 3 Bass is a compact, innovative mini amp with big TONE. Combining two channels, a continuously variable mid-cut EQ, Sub control and compressor, its the perfect take-anywhere bass amp.
FLY 3 Bass is a compact, innovative mini amp that that gives you huge tone on the go. Combining two selectable channels, a continuously variable mid-cut EQ, Sub bass and a compressor for ultimate control over your dynamics; its the perfect take-anywhere amp for your bass guitar, phone or tablet.

You can combine the FLY 3 Bass with the FLY 103 to create a 6 Watt stereo bass guitar amp set-up. The pair of them linked together create one an amazing portable speaker system, for your PC or computer speakers to play your music through.
Gain Control
The GAIN control adjusts the preamp instrument level and also the amount of overdrive. When the Clean Channel is selected, low to medium settings will deliver a clean sound and as the Gain is increased the sound will gradually become more overdriven. When the Overdrive channel is selected (OD switch) there will be moderate overdrive at all Gain settings, which again increases as the control is turned clockwise.
EQ Control
The EQ control allows you to adjust the depth of the EQ curve for preferred tonal response, from relatively flat with a slight mid-range boost, through to a formed mid response with a cut at around 400Hz. The depth of mid-range cut is continuously variable between the two extremes. You will find that the combination of the two channels and the carefully voiced EQ result in a huge range of great bass tones.
Compression Control
COMPRESSION is used to subtly smooth out the dynamic range of an audio signal, therefore softening the peaks and attack, as well as boosting the volume of lower levels which then increases sustain. The compression ratio of the in-built compressor is variable so you can dial in exactly the response you want.
Sub Control
The SUB control sets the level of a harmonic generator. This produces an additional low frequency tone that is mixed in with the normal signal. It gives the perception of increased low-end girth and incredible bass from a mini amp.
