Honest Guy Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) This beautifully crafted piece of kit was purchased just over a year ago. I have now decided to put it up for sale, after needing something a little bit bigger. Blackstar amps are absolute quality and made to the highest standards. This particular 5w model comes complete with a Celestion speaker, insuring the best in high end crunch and low end delivery with plenty of volume to boot. Small enough to fit in any car but by no means soft or meak - this amp can easily play to a small crowd. If you're looking for a secondary amp for smaller gigs or for studio purposes; purchase this amp today.

misrule Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I've been waiting for months in vain for an HT5 to come up here. This week I gave up and bought an HT20 from a mate. Isn't that typical? Have a frustrated bump Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Jamin Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'm in a band with Jarryd here so just to let you guys know: he's a genuinely awesome guy to deal with, and this amp sounds great and is in perfect condition! Here he/the HT5 is looking smart at a recent band practice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHUFC BASS Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 At the risk of sounding like a twat - this is the combo not the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you're aware but they also do a head version of this too: [url="http://www.andertons.co.uk/guitar-amp-heads/pid20683/cid689/blackstar-ht5rh-5w-tube-head.asp"]http://www.andertons.co.uk/guitar-amp-heads/pid20683/cid689/blackstar-ht5rh-5w-tube-head.asp[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Guy Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Oh wow!!! I didn't know that at all... I must admit that I like the fact that the combo comes with a quality Celestion speaker; but that head looks fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) Apologies for veering off topic - what guitar does your guitarist use? It's very cool! Edit - just found an earlier thread which mentions it's your Reverend. Might need to check them out myself, very cool looking things.

Honest Guy Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 They are absolutely beautiful and the best priced guitar for what you get! If you want a guitar that is versatile, beautiful and affordable I would recommend buying one of them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Jamin Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Check them out Wil! The passive bass contour control adds a whole load of versatility, and Reverend's pin-lock tuners are pretty handy too. Their basses look pretty cool too. Anyway - Blackstar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_bass Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Ooooh. Tempted, and work in Lincoln....Where can I find the cash.... Is it the one with the reverb built in? and does it come with the footswitch? Are you interested in any trades? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 How loud do these go in clean mode? I only had a quick tinker on the mini stack version and only really tried out the dirty sounds (which were nice!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'd ideally want cash, however, if a decent trade were to come up; I might consider it... No built in reverb and most certainly comes with the footswitch.

I only had a quick tinker on the mini stack version and only really tried out the dirty sounds (which were nice!) [/quote] How can I put this to you? It's a valve amp and is naturally loud. I have played in a pretty big venue (capacity - 1000) and have never had to turn up more than half way - obviously had it mic'd up but it's pretty powerful. The distortion on it is absolutely beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHUFC BASS Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I've just bought the head version of this (with reverb) and can confirm they are superb value for money. There's plenty of gain in there as well as having really nice clean sounds too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budget bassist Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Would you consider a trade for my Musicman FrankenSUB bass? Recently completed, see the thread in my sig. SUB bass body with OLP neck/tuners, SD Basslines and Status pickups, Musicman Bongo preamp (you'll rarely find one not in a Bongo) and assorted hardware.
