Blackstar HT Club 40 MkIII 40w Valve Combo Overview
Experience a new level of excellence with the Blackstar HT Club 40 MkIII, a 40-watt valve combo amplifier that redefines what’s possible in the world of guitar amplification. Building upon the multi-award-winning HT Venue valve line, the MkIII version sets a new benchmark, combining stunning aesthetics, innovative features, and world-class sound quality.
Aesthetics That Impress
The HT Venue MK III boasts a visually striking design that rivals any premium boutique amplifier. Its clean, crisp panel aesthetics are complemented by cornerless covering, classic chickenhead knobs, and a stylish paper fret, creating a captivating and timeless look. Every detail has been meticulously considered, including high-quality mini toggle switches, updated LED colours, and a sleek metal plate logo. This amplifier is not only a sonic masterpiece but also a work of art.
Endless Tonal Possibilities
Equipped with 2 x ECC83 and 2 x EL34 valves, the HT Club 40 MkIII offers two footswitchable channels and four footswitchable voices. The boutique clean channel features expanded tone controls, delivering pristine, crystal-clear tones. On the flip side, the high-gain overdrive channels provide an array of powerful, distortion-rich tones. With the patented Infinite Shape Feature (ISF), you have the power to shape your sound with precision.
Powerful Yet Controllable
The MkIII includes a Power Reduction feature that allows you to dial down the wattage to as low as 10% of the full output, making it adaptable to various playing environments. Master Volumes give you fine control over your sound, and the digital reverb, with a Dark/Light switch, adds depth and ambience to your playing. Reverb time is independently adjustable via Architect software.
Versatile Connectivity
With CabRig outputs (1/4" unbalanced, XLR balanced, and USB C), you can explore a vast array of cabinet, mic, mic placement, and room settings. These settings can be saved and stored into three presets, which can be easily recalled from the amplifier. An effects loop with an effects level switch lets you integrate your pedalboard seamlessly. The USB C connection is not just for recording but also for connecting to Architect & CabRig, expanding your tonal possibilities.
Exceptional Sound Delivery
The HT Club 40 MkIII features a 1x12" Celestion speaker that delivers remarkable clarity and projection. It comes with a 2-way foot controller, adding convenience to your performance. Despite its powerful capabilities, this amplifier maintains a compact size for ultimate portability. The modern boutique styling ensures it stands out wherever you play.
