Dept. 10 AMPED 3

Blackstar is a British amp company founded in 2007 by former Marshall engineers. Their pedal lines bring amplifier expertise to stompbox format with professional-grade features. The Dept. 10 AMPED 3 captures EL84-based amp character—think Vox AC30 territory. A real 12AX7 preamp tube feeds Blackstar s proprietary power amp voicing for authentic response. Three voices span the EL84 range from chimey cleans through crunchy breakup to saturated lead tones. Reactive speaker simulation maintains amp feel going direct. USB for recording and firmware.
