Shape your tone with two channels of valve magic in a rugged yet versatile combo amp.

The Blackstar HT-20R MK III tube combo amp delivers powerful and versatile tone for rehearsals, studio work and small gigs. Its dual-channel design provides pristine cleans and rich overdrive from its quartet of ECC83 and EL84 tubes. The clean channel offers crisp articulation and chime, while the overdrive channel serves up smooth saturation and sustain. Blend the tones of classic American and British amps with the Infinite Shape Feature. A 20-watt power section provides enough volume for any small venue and the power reduction feature lowers the wattage to 2 watts for home practice.

Premium Tubes Shape Your Tone

The HT-20R MK III's all-tube design relies on a pair of ECC83 preamp tubes and EL84 power tubes to shape your tone. The ECC83 tubes provide the gain and overdrive in the preamp section, while the EL84 tubes generate the power amp section's 20 watts of output. These premium tubes deliver the touch sensitivity, rich harmonics and complex overtones that only tubes can produce. Dial in sparkling cleans, bluesy crunch or face-melting overdrive with the amp's Gain, EQ and Master Volume controls.

Versatile for Any Playing Situation

With 20W of power at your fingertips, the HT-20R MK III provides enough volume and headroom for rehearsals and studio sessions as well as small club gigs. Its Power Reduction feature drops the wattage down to 2W, perfect for home practice without sacrificing tone. The amp's dual-channel design supplies a clean and overdrive channel, each with independent controls. Footswitch between channels or stack them for more gain. The Infinite Shape Feature blends the tones of British and American amps, providing a range of sounds from chimey cleans to saturated overdrive.

Shape Your Sound

The patented ISF control lets you blend between British and American-voiced tones to craft your signature sound. Dial in just a touch of chime for crystal-clean rhythm or full-on crunch for searing leads. A power reduction switch lowers the wattage to 2 watts for recording or practice in small spaces without compromising tone.

Versatile Connectivity

The CabRig DSP provides studio-quality cabinet simulation for recording directly into your interface or for playing through headphones. Send your tone directly to FOH or monitors via the XLR line out. A USB output lets you track with your favorite DAW software so you can capture ideas quickly and build songs with professional results.

Rugged and Road-Ready

Blackstar designed the HT-20R MK III to withstand the demands of rehearsal spaces, studios and stages. Its sturdy plywood cabinet houses the amp's components to prevent unwanted vibration and rattle. The 12" Blackstar speaker is built to handle 20W of continuous power without breaking up. Footswitch jacks allow control of the amp's functions from a distance. With its durable build and portable size, the HT-20R MK III is a reliable amp for any serious musician.
