BLACKSTARArtisan 15 1x12 Handwired Combo Valve Amp (Pre-Owned)

Description

The Blackstar Artisan 15 1×12 Handwired Combo Valve Amp combines exquisite vintage styling with equally remarkable tone. This 15-watt, Class A combo amp is handwired to deliver two versatile channels that refine legendary vintage and boutique sounds.

Channel 1 is driven by an EF86 Pentode for rich, complex tones, while Channel 2 features an ECC83 Triode for a smoother, more balanced response. The EL84-based power section allows for switching between 5W triode mode and 15W pentode mode, offering the ultimate flexibility in low-power valve amplification.

Equipped with a 12″ Celestion G12M Creamback speaker, the Artisan 15 provides a warm, full-bodied sound with modern clarity that’s ideal for both stage and studio use. It includes Hi and Lo inputs for channel blending, plus an impedance selector to integrate effortlessly with external cabinets.
