Blackstar Amped 2 100w Amp Pedal w/ Effects Overview
The Blackstar Amped 2 100W Amp Pedal is a force to be reckoned with. Designed to go with any setup, it'll revolutionise your rig. You can use it as a standalone amp going directly into a PA or DAW (with speaker simulation), plug it into a cab and use it as a head, or even place it at the front end of your current amp. The possibilities defy imagination, and with 100W of power and the tone and feel of a traditional valve amp, it packs a real punch - with the tone that made Blackstar legendary. With power reduceable to 1W, it can be used in your bedroom, onstage, or in the studio.
It's packed with effects. Modulation, reverb, delay, and drive footswitches let you access all of them at the push of a button - perfect for live performance. You can also change the power valve voicing between EL34, EL84, and 6L6, giving you all the authentic tube tone you could dream of. With extremely high headroom and 100W of power, you'll be able to create thunderous riffs which scream with punch and power. And a vast array of connectivity options, including a DI, FX loop, USB-C output, and more, this nifty device can slot into any setup. This is the future of amps.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionTrue valve tone
Want all the warmth, crunch, and inimitable thickness of a valve amp, but none of the weight? The Amped 2 is here to answer your call. Power tubes are known for having a huge impact on a valve amplifier's tone, but you can only ever have one set in a normal amp. This pedal has three! A handy switch lets you change between EL34, EL84, and 6L6 tubes, whilst the internal circuitry has been built to mimic a valve amp's interaction with a cab. This means that you get the best of all worlds in one neat package.
With 100W of power, you'll be able to take the roof off any venue - but sometimes that's too much. You can reduce the power all the way down to 20W or even 1W for bedroom practice that still has that cranked valve amp tone. As if that weren't enough, there also three different voicings to choose from, consisting of USA, UK, and Classic.
Deeply responsive effects
Powered by the advanced effects processor. And fully configurable. The effects loaded into this machine cover every base. Delay, reverb, modulation, and drive are accessible via four dedicated footswitches, so switching them on and off is as simple as pushing a button. This means you can be really dynamic in your songs, and even place more of your own effects in the FX loop.
Each built-in effect can be moulded to suit your taste using the wide range of dials available, whilst the Tap footswitch lets you select the tempo of the effect with ease. Holding down the footswitches also activates a further change. Holding down 'Delay' for instances, turns on the 'Freeze' effect. It's unbelievably comprehensive, and will satisfy any guitarist.
Unlimited connectivity
Made for every setup. The Amped 2 100W boasts a wealth of connectivity options which allow it to slot into any rig. You can use the low latency USB audio as an interface for recording, whilst the D.I. lets you connect directly to a PA/mixing desk for live performances. Or you can go directly into a cab with the 8 ohm and 16 ohm speaker outputs, although this pedal also boasts spectacular speaker simulation too! Not to mention MIDI. And you can customise more settings, like delay trails, through Blackstar's Architect deep editing software. Theirs is literally nothing you can't do with this beauty.
