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.The St. James 100 head is the world's lightest 100-Watt valve head, blending traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. The St. James 100 head boasts a range of innovative and unique features that distinguish it from the competition:Versatile Power Valve ConfigurationThe 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" SelectorFor 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 ControlThe 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 AppealWhile 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.
