Blackstar St. James 50 EL34 Combo

The Blackstar St. James 50 EL34 Combo is a 50-watt all-tube guitar combo amplifier that combines classic British valve tone with modern recording and live performance features. Thanks to its innovative lightweight construction, it is one of the lightest 50-watt all-valve combo amplifiers available while delivering uncompromising tone and dynamic response.

Powered by 2 × ECC83 preamp valves, 2 × EL34 power valves, and a custom-designed 12-inch Celestion Zephyr speaker, the amplifier offers two highly versatile channels. Channel I is inspired by legendary mid-1960s American clean amplifiers, providing exceptional headroom, musical compression and an outstanding pedal platform. Channel II delivers authentic vintage EL34 crunch with remarkable clarity and a footswitchable +10 dB front-end boost.

Each channel uses its own dedicated EQ circuitry, ensuring consistent tone regardless of channel selection. The built-in Reactive Load and CabRig™ DSP speaker simulation make silent recording and direct live performance effortless through USB audio or the balanced XLR CabRig output. Power reduction modes (50 W, Sag, and 2 W) allow genuine valve performance at any volume level.
