The Blackstar HT-1RH Electric Guitar Amplifier Head With Reverb is a compact, 1 Watt valve amplifier head designed for guitarists seeking authentic tube tone at low volumes. Its innovative push-pull power amp, utilizing an ECC83 preamp tube and an ECC82 power tube, delivers the crunch and breakup characteristics of a traditional 100W output stage, making it ideal for studio, practice, or small gigs. This unique design ensures rich valve harmonics and dynamic compression, providing a full, toneful sound even at whisper-quiet levels.
The HT-1RH features two channels—Clean and Overdrive—for maximum tonal versatility. The Clean channel offers a range from pristine clarity to crunchy tones using the Gain control, while the Overdrive channel transitions from subtle breakup to searing lead tones, perfect for a variety of playing styles. The Patented Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) allows players to dial in their preferred tone signature, shifting from a tight, aggressive American-style sound (counter-clockwise) to a warmer, woodier British character (clockwise). Combined with the Tone control, ISF provides endless tonal possibilities.
Enhancing its versatility, the HT-1RH includes digital reverb with a dedicated control to adjust the effect level, adding depth and ambiance to your sound. The speaker emulated output sets a new standard for direct recording, delivering professional-quality tones to disk, tape, or a PA system without compromise. Additional features include a stereo MP3/Line input for jamming along with tracks, an external speaker output for connecting to a cabinet, and a robust, compact design based on the award-winning HT-5 platform.
Whether you're recording in the studio, practicing at home, or performing live, the Blackstar HT-1RH offers unmatched tone and flexibility in a portable package, making it a must-have for discerning guitarists.
