For your consideration is a Blackstar St. James 50 EL34 1x12 Tube Combo Guitar Amplifier.
The Blackstar St. James series has quickly earned a reputation as one of the most innovative all-tube amplifiers on the market, combining classic tube tone with modern convenience in an incredibly lightweight package. This St. James 50 EL34 combo delivers authentic British-inspired cleans and overdrive while weighing significantly less than most traditional 50-watt tube combos (just over 28lbs!), making it an excellent choice for gigging musicians, studio players, and home recording alike.
Powered by two EL34 power tubes and two ECC83 preamp tubes, this amplifier offers two footswitchable channels with independent controls, onboard reverb, effects loop, reactive load technology, USB audio, XLR Cab Rig output, headphone output, and built-in power reduction from 50 watts down to 2 watts, making it equally at home on stage or in the studio.
The custom Celestion Zephyr 12" speaker provides the punch and feel of a traditional Vintage-style speaker while dramatically reducing weight. Blackstar's Cab Rig DSP speaker simulator allows for direct recording or silent practice without sacrificing tone.
This amplifier is in excellent used condition. The covering, grille cloth, handle, control panel, and rear panel all present exceptionally well with only minimal signs of previous ownership. All lettering remains crisp and legible, and the original protective informational decals are still present on the top panel. Please examine all photos carefully, as they are part of the description and accurately represent the condition of the amplifier.
