The Blackstar HT-20R MkII is a 20-watt valve powered combo guitar amplifier with two distinct channels and four different voices to play with.The HT-20R MkII has two footswitchable Voices, one with an 'American' character and the other with a Class A 'British' sound. Clean VoicesVoice 1 'American' - A clean, bright and tight tone with a solid bass response for a refined American tone. Voice 2 'British' - A highly responsive 'chime' with looser bottom for the British tone that can be pushed into a mid-range overdrive when driven hard. The two footswitchable Overdrive Voices are characterised by a tone which is high in gain, but avoids any of the detached top-end 'fizz'. Overdrives: Voice 1 'Classic' - This is the Classic 'British' Blackstar overdrive. Rich and natural it goes all the way to Super Crunch gain but cleans up beautifully. Voice 2 'High Gain' - Inspired by the critically acclaimed HT Venue MkII high gain sounds, this overdrive has additional aggression in the high end with a tight resonant low-end.
