Introducing the Blackstar St. James 100 Head and Combo: The valve amplifier redefined and brought into the 21st century. Combining real valve tone with modern convenience, connectivity and portability, the St. James 100 sets a new benchmark for valve amplifiers.
Continuing the legacy of the St. James series, the St. James 100 combo comes in as the world's lightest 100 Watt 2x12" valve combo, blending traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.
Versatile Power Valve Configuration
The amplifier comes equipped with two distinct power valve types: 2x 6L6 and 2x EL34. With a front-panel switch, you can toggle between these power stages in 50-watt mode or combine all four valves for the full 100-watt experience, offering unmatched versatility in sound.
Revolutionary Power Amplifier "Cut" Selector
For the first time, Blackstar introduces a switchable "Cut" selector. This PAF three-position selector allows you to fine-tune the amplifier's higher, harsher frequencies. This customisation lets you shape the amplifier's overall sound to perfectly match your preferences from an aggressive, extended high-end to a warm, vintage sound.
Advanced Connectivity and Tone Control
The St. James 100 combo includes a built-in reactive load and Blackstar's IR based CabRig technology, providing professional direct tones for both live performances and recording sessions. The amp also features a switchable effects loop (Series or Parallel) and an adjustable +2 - +6 dB Solo boost which is controlled via the included 6-way footswitch.
Dressed to Impress
The St. James 100 combo exudes elegance with its sleek, all-black design, perfectly balancing modesty and allure. The illuminated logo adds a striking touch, ensuring this amp stands out while maintaining its understated charm.
Level up your sound and unleash the raw power of the St. James 100 combo. Whether on stage or in the studio, this amplifier is your ultimate tool for self-expression.
