www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Blackstar HT Drive is an incredible valve overdrive straight from the UK that will give you some real vintage valve overdrive. It is ready to deliver rich, warm, and creamy tube saturation that will have you gasping in amazement. This is the real deal. It has dual cascaded ECC83 high voltage, triode stages that can go anywhere from a subtle and warm boost to some real valve saturation without any fizz. The exceptional and unique A-Class tone control ensures that there is no fizz, just rich saturated tone, and the sound of your guitar. The Blackstar HT Drive is a highly dynamic and responsive overdrive pedaljust like a good tube amp. This pedal works amazingly well with your own playing style and use of volume and tone controls. Back off the volume, and you still hear some rich tones. The Blackstar HT Drive pedal has a high integrity buffered bypass that delivers sweet overdrive without unnecessary coloring of your tone. It also is a supremely soulful speaker emulated output that will warm up your direct recordings.

  • the background music at the end, do u guys write and record that? or what band is it by

  • @thatguydrew22 - Andy's assistant Jamie writes and records the theme music for most of the videos.

    -PGS

  • Andy what amp are you plugged into?

    The effect gives a very similar tone to the one that I get out of my JCM800 combo. What would happen if I'd plug this sucker into a tube amp?

  • It is plugged into a tube amp. The same Fender DRRI we've been using for quite some time.

    Thanks

  • Radiohead!

  • @Preludiumi EVERYTHING'S MADE IN CHINA!

  • I think this one has the best demo music ProGuitarShops has ever had in a demo. Radiohead? Spoon? Solid.

  • Just picked one up and ran it through a Peavey Delta Blues amp with the 15". Sounded great with humbuckers or with a Telecaster. I have a Marshall JMC2000, but have not tried it through the stack yet. Sounded incredible through the Peavey and I'm hoping to try it direct for recording and through the PA for the true test!

  • It's not from UK, its made in china

  • @CHARrrrrrrrr check out dimarzio

  • @vija0014 Then I assume that you're totally new into pedals.

  • 3:42 is definately my favourite part of this video! Andy I love how you go all greenwood in so many of your videos ;)

    All that "biased" taste aside (see what I did there!), another great demo from you guys. It's got a hell of a lot more gain than I expected, more than I'd ever need probably but I really like the dynamic range and the lovely upper mids it appears to have so consideration is on the reservation! Cheers.

  • @CHARrrrrrrrr bare knuckle....they are a rad british company, but really expensive

  • That was all Helmut guitar cover playing.
