Blackstar guitar amplifiers have quite rightly caused a major buzz in the music industry since their launch back in 2007. By upgrading the valves to our selected sets customers have been able to voice their amps to their personal requirements. Customers have reported a range of benefits when upgrading the valves over the factory items.
Here we have listed our most common upgrades using current production and the best new old stock items to help you get the most out of these fine Blackstar amplifiers.
This Classic Retro upgrade kit covers the Blackstar HT5C, HT5R ,HT5-RC ,HT5 210 and HT 5 112 heads and combos and is designed to provide the classic British Rock sound. It is an effective upgrade over the stock valves for as it delivers more midrange warmth for a fatter fuller sound.This is done by using valves that are traditionally voiced in combination with a 12BH7A Retro which is specially chosen for its overdriven characteristics.
The Harma ECC83 Retro provides a harmonically rich and detailed sound with excellent 3D midrange warmth. This valve has a traditional British voiced sound that has a huge singing sustaining tone when overdriven. The outstanding feature of this valve is its smooth linear midrange response and extended frequency response so you get smooth warm overdrive with tight fat punchy lows.
The Harma 12BH7A Retro is designed on the ladder plate design that was used by General Electric.
The valve has bass response which is both tight and musical with plenty of low end.
The treble response is very well balanced with plenty of bite in the upper frequencies. The valve also displays a warm crunchy overdrive when pushed.
