The Blackstar Studio 10 KT88 is a 10W combo amplifier with genuine pre-amp and power-stage tubes, inspired by classic British amplifiers. The result is a versatile amplifier series with useful functions for studio purposes and different voicings. Manufactured with a single tube power amp and single ended construction, these amplifiers have a straight-line design and are controlled via 4x controls for gain, ISF, reverb and master volume. The Blackstar Studio 10 also features a serial effects loop with a foot-switchable level and a reverb effect. As a power amp tube with the greatest possible headroom, the KT88 tube is especially popular among fans of clear and modern clean sounds. The Blackstar Studio 10 offers 10x clear and evenly appealing sounds with hi-fi character. If the 12AX7 pre-amp tube is driven into overdrive however, the extremely tight high gain sounds of modern metal are produced.
