Blackstar Dept. 10 AMPED 2 100-watt Guitar Amplifier Pedal

The Dept. 10 AMPED 2 is a floorboard amplifier that packs 100 watts of pure Blackstar tone in a stompbox-sized enclosure that will fit easily on your pedalboard. AMPED 2 was designed to re-create the tone and feel of a traditional tube amp, with three distinct preamp voices — USA, UK, and Classic — for maximum sonic versatility. Three different power amp responses ensure an authentic amp-like feel to match the AMPED 2's killer tone. You get four pedal-style effects, including Drive, Modulation, Delay, and Reverb, plus a high-quality effects loop, MIDI control, and 9V pedal power outputs. To top it off, this guitar amplifier pedal includes Blackstar's next-gen Cab Rig DSP speaker simulation. You can connect Dept. 10 AMPED 2 to an 8- or 16-ohm speaker cabinet, or you can choose to route a studio-quality mic'd-cab tone straight to your DAW via USB-C.
