Keep It Under Control

The Debut 50R delivers impressive control options for a combo amp in its price range. You get two channels, which can be switched from either the amp panel or a footswitch, each with dedicated volume control as well as gain control on the overdrive channel. The clean channel button also doubles as a bright switch when the overdrive is selected, providing more sparkling highs.

3-band tone control lets you adjust the lows, mids, and highs for easy tone sculpting, and the master volume knob makes it simple to dial in overall loudness. And of course, like most Blackstar amps, there is an ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) control knob that lets you dramatically alter the response of your amp to fit that of your preferred style. This shifts the whole tonestack response to match everything from an American (counterclockwise) to a British (clockwise) amp character, and is fully reactive with the 3-band EQ, providing an intuitive and flexible method of tone selection that packs the sound of numerous amps into one.
