Have a look at the camera test footage of Andy James (Sacred Mother Tongue) warming up with some improvised shredding through the new Blackstar HT-Blackfire!


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.
