Just a demo showcasing the heavier side of the Blackstar HT-5. Don't judge the sloppy playing, focus on the tone!

  • I,ve got the randall 2x12 with a randall 100 watt solid state ,,,,but dam love the blackstar through it,,,freaking waiting time to get one is nuts,,, worth the wait?

  • I'd say so :)

  • Just curious, was this plugged into that Randall 2x12 or the top 1x12 cab? I did sound a little thin, but that may be due to the camera microphone, or the youtube compression.

  • The 2x12.

    The 1x12 is a Mesa Boogie Mark IV.

  • Man im so ready to order one of these guys, how would you rate the clean channel? I love the Fender blues Jr, but wanted the dirty of a marshall. Is the clean a pretty good tone for slow blues or should I look elsewhere?

  • I did a demo of the clean channel, it can sound nice and clean, or if you turn it up, a bit dirty ;)

  • You're comparing 30 solid state watts to 5 tube watts, which is not a fair comparison. My mesa tube amp running in 15w mode is loud as fuck, it can keep up with a drummer with master on 2.

  • It is Seasons of the Abyss by Slayer.

see all

  • @omsata it has more than enough gain for slayer, i promise. just dont buy it with the stock blackstar cabs, they kinda suck ass. the head and a decent 2*12 will kick ass, i'm getting it tomorrow.

  • Wow I really need to get rid of these Blackstar 1x10 cabs that came with the head!! Definately an amazing amp with the right speakers!

  • @Milo9 What settings have you got on in this vid and your other??

  • damn, 5w and can play slayer, what more can you ask?

    great for home use

    buttttttttttt are you using a pedal? it seems as the guitar is plugged straight to the amp, if so I will probably buy this amp (after hearing it live)

  • Do you think you could get a real deep Black Stone Cherry like sound out of this amp?

  • I wish my sloppy playing was as good as yours dude. I tried one of these amps through a 1x10 cab it comes with last week and I thought it was fantastic for the money (£300 half stack) We're using a line 6 spider 75 at the moment and its been ok, in fact its a good practice amp with a range of sounds at the press of a button, but all the guitars sound the same from a strat to an EMG equipped tele.

    I get the HT5 next week.

  • Are you using a distortion pedal ?

    Nice tone !

  • Is that just being played through the amp, with no pedals?

  • Hey man, you have some pretty cool riffs. Are any of them original?

  • Hey man, you actually have some cool riffs. Are any of them original?
