  • Revolutionary “Cut” Selector: A three-position switch that customizes high frequencies, allowing for a range of sounds from bright and aggressive to warm and vintage.

  • Adjustable Boost & Effects Loop: Footswitchable Tight and adjustable boost, with a switchable series/parallel effects loop for flexible sound shaping.
  • Modern Aesthetics, Classic Appeal: The design reveals the internal tubes, celebrating its tube-driven heritage while embracing a fresh, contemporary look.

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 customization 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 head 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.

Modern Aesthetics with Classic Appeal

While the new design aligns with the St. James lineup, it also introduces a fresh look that showcases the internal valves. This design dispels any doubts about the amplifier's valve-driven nature, despite its lighter weight and advanced technology.
