zZounds Gear Experts Say...

Bursting with classic, inspiring British cleans and overdrive, the Blackstar TV-10B combo amp houses an EL34 power valve paired with a 12" Celestion speaker.

Overview

The TV-10 B provides all the grit, growl, and mid-pushed character that is so iconically British and sought after by players all around the world. The amp is simple yet versatile, with plug-in-and-play tones ready to go right out of the box. Designed for home and studio use, the ability to quickly dial in your sound when inspiration strikes is central to this amp's design, prioritizing simplicity and tonality.

The TV-10 B is powered by the classic British combination of an ECC83 preamp stage paired with an EL34 power stage, driven through a 12" Celestion speaker. Featuring two footswitchable voices and Blackstar's custom voiced reverb, it creates a dynamic playing experience that effortlessly transitions between full, warm clean tones and classic British crunch.

The distinctive character of this single-ended valve amp comes from the way its power stage clips, bringing out the nuances of the chosen power amp valve. The EL34 power valve produces characteristically full, smooth cleans and a classic British boost that blooms when pushed hard using the Master Volume.

The signal for the emulated line output is taken after the power amp, allowing you to capture and record the tonal characteristics of the Class A-configured EL34 power valve and output transformer being pushed into saturation, directly into a recording/mixing device via a stereo/TRS jack cable.

Blackstar's custom-designed digital reverb is voiced for guitar players. Through meticulous R&D and listening to vintage… read more reference units, Blackstar has faithfully captured the tone of the best valve amplifier reverb tanks.

This amp has very minimal clean headroom and is very hard to dial in with the single tone knob. The design has been simplified too much imo. It's cool if you want constant edge of breakup or always dirty and crunchy. Still pretty heavy for the size and as cool as it is, nowhere near worth it's price. Thank God, I at least got to try it when it was on sale for 650. But I'd say 400 is a much more fair price for this amp new. 850 is absolute insanity. I just sold mine after 2 gigs and 3 rehearsals.
