For Jimmystageright.The purpose was simply to illustrate the Blackheart head is great with pedals and preamps/pods,etc.Not ALL the tone is from just the preamp.Its also the BH's tube tone in there as well.The Lonestar is around 7 bones.Worth every penny ! Thanks to all.

Dear Frank Zappa,with that name you have all my respect,and thank you kindly for your comment.Zappa was an amazing man.That little riff is a small piece of one of my tunes.Yes its a Mex Lonestar and it really is worthy.I have no complaints.The little giant BH amp is really nice.

[Tedzomplin]

Yep folks this little amp works very well.Easy to get good tones from it.I love the low tube wattage for recording.Still enjoying it very much evey time I plug in.

The Peavey Rockmaster is more responsible for the sound you are hearing more than the Blackheart!

whats that under the head?what does it do?

[skaterboyrob19]

is there a footswitch available for this amp? (i mean the blackheart, not the marshall)

[punkeratheart]

I want to get a LS strat, and polish the finish down to a thin, satin layer, just barely covering the wood at all, then throw a GFS dogear mean 90 in the bridge. I don't know, maybe since I play through a honky peavey classic 30 most of the time, I should save the P-90s for something darker than alder, but I do have a different single coil with a dogear humbucker sized cover, "Diesel Pickups" plain old 7.5K AlNiCo-V single coil, decent on my ash Vantage Avenger, probably good on a LS strat, eh?

what we're hearing is your $10,000 dollar preamp.

not the little giant.

[ruffles272]

same volume, but the half stack is more versatile, and you could just buy the head and a 2x12 if volume is an issue.

@guyusm It's one of the most versatile guitars out there. You won't be able to blast out metal like with dimarzio pickups, but there isn't a guitar out there that can match a true heavy metal tone while still being able to cover the many genres the lonestar absolutely nails with the texas specials and pearly gates combo.

It has to be my all time favourite guitar for playing blues, and has the same middle and neck pickups as the Stevie Ray Vaughan signature strat (which is what sold it to me).

It would be nice if we could just hear the amp, not a preamp.
