Blackstar - Silverline Special

Blowing the Minds of Guitarists Everywhere

From effortless control over an array of classic tones to their gig-ready power sections, the Silverline Series will be your go-to amp for every situation. Whether bathing in the boutique-level tone powered by the incredibly powerful SHARC® processor and dual-patent design, recording via the onboard USB interface or dialling in the perfect blend of boutique, studio-grade effects, Silverline delivers.

Our Most Powerful Digital Amps Ever

Silverline guitar amplifiers marry boutique character, effortless tonal tweaking and next-level digital processing power to create the most attractive, best sounding and most responsive digital amplifiers available to date. Finally, a boutique, digital amp without compromise. Forget gear that claims ‘real-amp tone’ and get back to playing real amps, with the Silverline series.

Next Level Touch Response

Thanks to a high-performance SHARC® processor and patented Blackstar TVP technology, Silverline’s Response controls delivers the nuanced feel, vibe, and response of six of the most coveted valve power sections in the world – KT88, 6L6, KT66, EL34, 6V6, EL84. Plug in, select the perfect setting for you, and experience the pure tone of your favourite amps with more detail than you ever thought possible.

Deep Editing with Architect

Silverline is the most intuitive, boutique-level digital amp on the market. But plug it into your computer via USB, and Blackstar's free ARCHITECT software unleashes a world of deep-editing, preset organisation and patch sharing that gives you total control of every aspect of your sound.

Architect is the interface for controlling and customising many of the advanced features of upcoming Blackstar products, including CabRig. Architect is available for both PC and Mac, and has been developed from the ground up to be compatible with the latest and future operating systems, including Mac OS Catalina and Big Sur.

Patented ISF Control

Blackstar's proprietary ISF control works with the onboard EQ, sweeping from clear and open USA tones to the midrange punch of the UK's most iconic amplifiers, and everywhere in-between. The whole tone stack response is moved, yet the tone controls remain fully interactive.

Genuine Celestion Speakers
Silverline is the new standard in digital guitar amplification. To enforce this, we’ve fitted each of the amps with the standard in guitar speakers, Celestion V-Types. With their balanced sound and singing mids, they are the perfect choice for delivering Silverline’s wide breadth of tone.

Studio Grade Effects
As with every aspect of the Silverline series, the onboard modulation, delay, and reverb effects, all based on classic and boutique designs, are the perfect blend of pristine sound quality and effortless control. Even with four of each effect type, two knobs are all it takes to find your perfect settings.

6 Proprietary Preamp Voicings
With six finely tuned preamp voicings – Clean Warm, Clean Bright, Crunch, Super Crunch, OD 1, OD 2 – Silverline puts your favourite tones at your disposal. When used in conjunction with Blackstar’s patented ISF control you can easily tailor your tone to perfection.

All-in-One recording Solution
Silverline is a simple and inspiring way to capture your tones in the studio. Whether taking a line from the combination Phones/Emulated output, using the plug-and-play USB recording interface capabilities or mic’ing the speaker, Silverline makes the perfect studio companion.
