Blackstar HT60 Soloist 60 1x12 Combo
The "HT Venue" Series of amps is the latest great design in Blackstar's line of amps. These medium-priced, medium-powered amps deliver performance that is every bit as pro as their premium Series One line. If you need a little more power than the award-winning HT5, or you're too worried to take your beloved Artisan on the road, the HT Venue series is for you! The perfect solution for the working musician.
As you probably know, Blackstar are famous for being able to create highly versatile tube amps at incredible prices. Most amps in this price range do one thing well, but the HT Venue amps deliver lush cleans, and great British & American drives effortlessly. Just check out the range of tones the Venue series can achieve in the video demo of the Stage 60 (the 60w 2x12 in the Venue range) below.
The 60 watt 1x12 is big, bold and clear with enough power for larger stages, but can still get sweet tones at pokey-basement-gig levels. Two footswitchable channels, an included 4 way footswitch and built in reverb and FX loop make this amp easy to manipulate tonally with precision.
Here's what Blackstar say about the HT Soloist 60 Combo

These tube equipped amps are packed with innovations and tone and versatile enough to deliver pure boutique cleans and ripping overdrives in one portable package - making them perfect for the working musician.
