Developed after months of forensic examination of vintage valve amps, the St. James series offers valve amplifiers that are truly lightweight and portable. These amps are simple to use but highly versatile; the intuitive two channel set-up deliver Blackstar’s best ever cleans and overdrives.
- Reactive load allows you to use the valve amps without a speaker connected, mimicing the response of a typical speaker for authentic power-amp tones at home or in the studio.
- The new Cab Rig simulator technology reproduces the sound and feel of a mic’d up guitar cab in incredible detail.
- Power reduction to 5 watts, or “Sag” setting which recreates a softer vintage response.
- Super lightweight amps, half the weight of a traditional valve amp.
- 50 Watt amp
- Less than half the weight of a traditional valve amp (24.25lbs combo)
- USB audio output with Cab Rig advanced DSP cabinet simulator
- Two footswitchable channels and footswitchable channel II boost (footswitch included)
- Power reduction, studio quality digital reverb, and effects loop
- The higher gain 6L6 model offers modern sparkling cleans and high gain crunch.
- The Celestion G12Z-70 ‘Zephyr’ 8 Ohm lightweight speaker was custom designed to help reduce weight in these amps.
