Official Blackstaramps Forum

Nevermind. I found my answers thanks to some extensive googling. There doesn't seem to be a lot of info out there on these amps yet. It is FIXED bias which, from my understanding, means that the tube socket biasing tools cannot be used like they can with cathode biased amps. The test point on the PC...

My homemade pedal board. The Big Muff is about to be sold because I just can't get a sound I like out of it. The Jekyll and Hyde sounds good on my clean channel and I use it to add more crunch to OD1 on my HT60. http://i945.photobucket.com/albums/ad292/JGDigitalJedi/PB_resized.jpg I made it extra la...

What's up folks. I got a HT-60 Stage a few weeks ago (best way to spend a tax return ever). I'm thrilled with it! I've always been an all tube guy except for my last amp which was a Peavey Vypyr Tube 120. I've had a Mesa Triple Rec, B52-AT100, Hughes and Kettner Triamp, and more. I have to say I'm l...
