The ID:Core BEAM is the first product that caters for bass guitarists. Blackstar has worked extensively on the bass voicings on this amp to make sure they will please even the most discerning player.

  • Bass 1 Voice setting is a vintage voicing. This voicing is EQ'd fairly flat and will give you warm, smooth, classic bass tones.
  • Bass 2 Voice setting is a modern bass voicing that will help you achieve those dynamic bass tones of today.

The electric Voice control has six different settings – Clean Warm, Clean Bright, Crunch, Super Crunch, OD 1, OD 2. Using these in conjunction with Blackstar’s ISF, you will be able to achieve any tones you are thinking of. If you want to go into even deeper editing, simply plug your ID:Core BEAM into your Windows PC or Mac and open up the Insider software.

This is the first ever acoustic product that Blackstar has released and they have worked tirelessly to make sure you will be able to achieve crystal clear acoustic chimes to warm, full bodied depth. There are 2 different voicings available for your guitar:

  • Acoustic 1 Voice setting is designed to be flat response allowing your acoustic to take the driving seat. The tone from the amp will replicate that of your guitar and the guitar’s pickup and preamp section.
  • Acoustic 2 Voice setting is a natural sounding, dynamically voiced preamp that will turn any acoustic guitar into a ready-to-record tone machine.

Fed up with loads of cables getting tangled up and looking messy? So are they!
