Blackstar Artisan 10th Anniversary Combo

Full Description

Mini Blackstar - Massive Tone

The Blackstar Artisan 10 AE is inspired by the sound and feel of the Artisan range of amplifiers. It features 10 watts of single-ended real valve tone, a compact and rugged chassis, built-in reverb and multiple connections. Despite its compact proportions, this amp delivers quality Blackstar tone that is ideal for the studio, practice sessions, or even for small gigs.

Real Valve Power & 2 Channels

The Artisan 10 AE features an ECC83 preamp valve feeding an EL34 power tube for a British-style edge-of-breakup sound. The foot switchable drive channel gives a drive boost to provide a thick overdrive tone that is ideal for overdriven rhythm sounds and vocal lead tones.

Professional Enhancements

The Artisan 10 AE features an Emulated output for silent recording with cabinet emulation, should you wish to plug directly into a mixing desk or recording device without using a microphone. It also includes a 1-button footswitch for channel changes and a series effects loop to use your own effects pedals. Multiple speaker outputs enable the Artisan 10 AE to be paired with a variety of extension cabinets, giving this small amplifier the capability to be used for rehearsals and even for small gigs.

Classic Styling

This amp takes the essence of the Artisan amplifier range and neatly packs it into a small combo that will look great in your studio or practice room. The Artisan 10 AE is the ideal grab and go amplifier, distilling Blackstar's 10 years of experience into a combo that looks as good as it sounds.
