Blackstar Unity 60 - 60W 1x10" Bass Combo
The Blackstar Unity 60 is a deceptively powerful 60-watt bass combo that’s been winning over bassists of all stripes with its smart design, deep tonal range, and supremely player-friendly layout. Built for serious practice, small gigs, and studio sessions, this 1x10” combo punches well above its weight, combining modern features with an intuitive analogue-style interface that keeps your hands on your bass, not buried in menus.
The Unity Series was designed from the ground up with input from working bass players, and it shows. The Unity 60 gives you three distinct preamp voicings—Classic, Modern, and Flat—each offering a unique tonal personality. Whether you're after vintage warmth, tight studio precision, or a neutral platform for effects, it's all right there at the flick of a switch. The 4-band semi-parametric EQ lets you dive deep into your sound and sculpt it precisely to your taste or your instrument’s character.
One of the real stars of the show here is the Response control, which mimics the feel of different power amp stages—choose between Linear, 6L6, and 6550 to add just the right dynamic push, saturation, or vintage sag to your tone. And if you want to get a bit adventurous, there's a drive section with its own Level and Drive controls, plus a choice of Overdrive, Distortion, or Fuzz textures—perfect for dialling in anything from growling punch to fuzz-laden doom.
It’s also packed with practical features for real-world playing: an XLR D.I. output with cabinet simulation for plugging straight into the PA or interface, an effects loop for time-based pedals, a headphone output with cab emulation for silent practice, and an MP3/Line In so you can jam along to your favourite tracks.
Whether you're holding down the low end in a jazz trio or shaking walls in a punk rehearsal, the Blackstar Unity 60 is more than ready. Musicmaker is proud to stock this mighty little combo, offering our trusted advice and aftercare for gigging bassists and home players alike.
