The HT-BLACKFIRE is the first artist signature product by Blackstar,
developed with influential guitarist Gus G. (Ozzy Osbourne, Firewind)
Gus G.'s instructions to the Blackstar design engineers were to produce,
'the ultimate heavy metal distortion pedal.'

The HT-BLACKFIRE is a dual channel valve metal distortion pedal. The
channels are named after the fan-favourite Firewind track 'The Fire And The
Fury.' The 'Fire' channel delivers a high gain classic distortion, while the
'Fury' channel takes you to screaming lead and beyond. Other features
include an ECC83/12AX7 valve, patent-applied-for ISF control, independent Gain andVolume controls for each channel and an industry-standard, custom Gus G. speaker emulated out.

With its black finish, orange and red LEDs, black grille and Blackstar
designed Gus G. logo, the HT-BLACKFIRE looks as serious as it sounds.
Limited to just 1,000 pieces worldwide, each pedal includes a certificate of
authenticity signed by Gus G. and an exclusive Gus trading card.

  • how can he have such a tone without this fucking noise hhhshshshsssssshsss

  • @MfGrimm0503 I think skillful guitarist like Gus G. can be endorsed by Mesa, so he doesn't need to use Mesa Boogie and pretend that he using Blackstar. Because if he prefer Mesa Boogie he can easily have it.

  • @MrPalut no problem :3

  • @k03dnoob passive doesn't have anything t. And oh, most active pickups actually produce less noise than most passive ones. Because they have less wounds of copper wire, and don't pick up static that easily. And yes, thats actually a fact, not an opinion.

    Your HZ are more likely to pick up static than my 81+89. Try it in front of an old computer screen.

  • @MatKiller1197 using a tube amp and silent pickups, passive + tube amplifier practically makes zero noise, i dont get any noise from my emg hz and blackstar ht-1, neither my vox valve.

  • @DavorKoch thanks so much :D:D

  • Do you really need a distortion pedal with a Blackstar?

  • @MrPalut Fire And The Fury - Firewind :) Gus G's band.

  • hoooolly crap , killer intro :O what is that song?

  • @SilhouetteVengeance maybe cause how can someone have that tone without using a noise gate its imposible maybe the pickups do the whole work and keeps the noise out

  • @MatKiller1197 theres probably a built in noise gate

  • Black Star.... best melodic death metal amp.... EVER!
