Since its inception, Blackstar's HT range has stood as a cornerstone series of valve amplifiers, earning accolades for its exceptional performance. Its dedication to delivering pristine tone within a compact framework has cemented its status as a fixture in the homes and studios of countless professional and aspiring musicians. Following extensive refinement, research, and design, Blackstar are thrilled to unveil the all-new HT MK III range of valve amplifiers.

The HT-20R MK III amplifiers retain all the esteemed features of their predecessors, while also introducing our state-of-the-art DSP speaker simulator, CabRig. This groundbreaking technology enables guitarists to explore a vast array of cabinet, microphone, mic placement, and room settings, with the ability to save and recall three presets directly from the amplifier.

In addition to these cutting-edge features, the new HT-20R MK III amplifiers boast a strikingly modern aesthetic design that rivals premium boutique amplifiers. With a clean, crisp panel appearance and cornerless covering, complemented by classic chickenhead knobs and a new paper fret, these amplifiers exude sophistication. Furthermore, Blackstar have integrated high-quality mini toggle switches, updated the LED colours, and replaced the plastic logo with a sleek metal plate version. The HT MK III amplifiers unquestionably set the standard for both style and sound quality in their category.
