Blackstar HT-1RH MkII

The multi award-winning HT-1RH is one of Blackstar’s best-selling valve amps of all time. Following over two years of intensive R&D the all new HT-1RH MK II is set to raise the benchmark again – this is not just a facelift!

The HT-1RH MkII is the perfect studio and practice amp, packed with great valve tone and new innovative features. It has been developed to sound full and toneful even at the lowest volume level.

The best clean tones

HT-1RH MK II comes with two footswitchable Voices in the Clean Channel. One with an “American” character and the other with a Class A “British” sound – both are 100% Blackstar.

• Voice 1 “American” – A clean, bright and tight tone with a solid bass response for a refined American tone.

• Voice 2 “British” – A highly responsive “chime” with looser bottom for the British tone that can be pushed into a mid-range overdrive when driven hard.

The best overdrives

The two footswitchable Overdrive Voices are characterised by a tone which is high in gain, but avoids any of the detached top-end “fizz” often found in other designs.

• Voice 1 “Classic” – This is the Classic “British” Blackstar overdrive.  Rich and natural it goes all the way to Super Crunch gain but cleans up beautifully.

• Voice 2 “High Gain” – Inspired by the critically acclaimed HT Venue MkII high gain sounds, this overdrive has additional aggression in the high end with a tight resonant low-end.

The best features

Joining Blackstar’s patented ISF tone control is a USB audio output for easy pro recording and a newly voiced studio quality reverb.

The best looks

Now even more refined and boutique with stage-friendly chickenhead knobs.
