Blackstar Artist FR Standard - Professional FRFR Powered Cabinet

The Blackstar Artist FR Standard is built for musicians who want their digital models to sound and feel exactly as intended. Its custom-designed 12" flat-response speaker features a specialized whizzer cone to support high frequencies, ensuring every nuance of your amp and effects models is delivered with perfect clarity. Unlike many FRFR options that are oversized or over-budget, this cabinet offers a compact solution that looks and responds like a classic guitar cabinet, making it a seamless addition to any rig.

Precision Tone Shaping and Active EQ

To bridge the gap between different playing environments, the Artist FR Standard features flexible and intuitive front-panel controls. A powerful 3-band active EQ, specifically voiced for guitar frequencies, allows you to quickly tweak your sound to suit the room or compensate for variations in different IRs. With additional Volume and Presence controls, you can fine-tune the high-end response on the fly, ensuring your tone always cuts through with professional accuracy.

Stage-Ready Features and Reliability

Engineered for life in the studio and on the move, the Artist FR Standard includes a built-in kickstand for instant tilt-back monitoring. This allows you to direct your sound exactly where you need it during rehearsals or performances. At just 10.72kg, it is highly portable while maintaining the rugged reliability expected from Blackstar’s proven cabinet technology.
