Blackstar St. James 50 EL34 212 - Guitar Combo

Blackstar St. James 50 EL34 212 Combo

Ultra-lightweight 50 Watt combo with 2x ECC83 and  2x EL34 Valves.
Two footswitchable channels, Reverb and Effect Loop with Level Switch.

Channel I is inspired by those clean, dynamic American amps of the mid ’60s.  St. James brings these circuits right up-to-date, producing a whole new level of clean headroom and dynamic compression to deliver inspired musical-mids and tight-lows. This channel is a perfect pedal platform.

Channel II is very vintage in nature. The brand-new preamp design delivers the raucous crunch you’d expect from an EL34 amp but with stunning clarity and chime. All this is topped off with a footswitchable +10dB front-end boost.

Completely separate EQ circuits are used for each channel. This is achieved by switching dual-ganged potentiometers, which means there is no compromise in tone between the two channels even with the shared EQ controls.

With more musicians recording at home, or playing on silent stages, St. James is perfect for the way we play today, with USB audio connectivity for pro-recording and an XLR D.I. for professional live use, both using the inbuilt reactive load and CabRig DSP speaker simulation.
