Used Blackstar Artisan Series 30H 30W Guitar Amp Head Burgundy $1739.99 The Blackstar Artisan 30H is a guitar amp head that is deceptively simple in operation and yet highly flexible in functionality and tone - In keeping with its classic design, With the emphasis on simplicity and sonic purity, every feature of the Blackstar Artisan 30H amplifier head has been refined to provide you with the widest range of reference vintage tones. That's because the electronic circuitry works in harmony with the finest components and materials available. The Artisan 30H is a guitar amp built to last a lifetime. The 30W amp head effortlessly combines vintage style and rugged, road tested reliability. The point-to-point tag board construction, welded steel chassis and finger-jointed birch-ply cabinet are complemented by beautiful vintage red Tolex and etched aluminum panels. Power Amplifier The Blackstar Artisan 30H power amplifier uses 4 EL84 power pentode tubes in Class A bias. The EL84s used are graded in terms of quiescent operating point and transconductance, to give you excellent hum performance and dynamic feel. The Blackstar Artisan 30H power amplifier operates in 2 modes, namely push-pull (30W) or single-ended (10W), depending on the setting of the power amplifier mode control. This control is designed to maintain the optimum operating point in both single-ended and push-pull modes to ensure maximum performance. In push-pull mode the power amplifier takes on characteristics similar to that of a Class A early '60s British amplifier. The single-ended mode allows the generation of the critical power amplifier harmonic distortion at a much lower volume. The lower power setting is particularly effective for home and studio use. A cathode-coupled phase splitter enhances the power amplifier and provides balance in the power amplifier drive as well as superb dynamic response. In keeping with the vintage sonic signature of the Blackstar Artisan 30H, the use of a tube rectifier adds compression to the power amplifier response and is critical in generating its feel and responsiveness. The GZ34 tube rectifier used in the Artisan 30H is also found in other classic designs. With an amplifier that is built to last, reliability of the electronics circuitry is essential. Preamplier Channel 1 - The ECC83 Channel Hi/Lo inputs provide perfect matching either directly to the guitar (high sensitivity) or for connection to higher output effects pedals (low sensitivity). This channel is based on the EF86 preamplifier pentode tube. Originally, this tube was most commonly used in high-end audio applications due to its high gain and low noise characteristics. However, in very early American guitar amplifier designs a pentode was used in the preamplifier circuit. The use of a pentode in these early designs provided unique gain and compression characteristics that make these amplifiers so revered for studio use today. The extra gain of the EF86 allows the power amplifier to be driven harder for more compression and rich harmonic disto |

Tips On How To Play The Electric Guitar
Many young people of today who are interested in modern music have a love for the sound of an electric guitar and when asked if they would like to learn how to play a musical instrument, the electric guitar is always a favorite. However, some guitarists will tell you that it's so much easier to learn how to play an acoustic guitar first of all. Why do you think that is? Well, one thing to bear in mind is that electric guitars have steel strings. If you are not used to playing a guitar, your fingertips will be soft so the steel strings are likely to feel very uncomfortable, even painful at times.
If you decide to begin with an acoustic model, by the time your fingers have hardened sufficiently on the softer strings, you well be well on the road to knowing your chords and many other aspects of playing needed for the electric guitar. The transformation will be quite simple. On the other hand, some guitarists will say, just go with the type of guitar which is best suited to your taste in music. So if an electric guitar is the instrument of your choice, then go for it.! Remember to start off gently in order to let your fingers get used to the steel strings without a blister in sight.
Aside from the strain on the fingertips, another reason to begin your guitar playing with an acoustic instrument is that you are more likely to learn how to play correctly. This means you will be laying down a good musical base instead of having to rely on sound boxes to achieve your desired results. It is important when you start to learn to play the guitar you are aware of what all the controls and knobs allow you to do. This is not just a plug and play machine. A sensitive ear is needed to get the mix just right.
A good way to learn how to play properly from the beginning is to take one to one lessons. But it really doesn't matter which type of lessons you have as it is practise which will make you perfect. It's the only way to learn to how to play an instrument well.
When you buy your electric guitar there are a few other pieces of equipment which you will need. It's advisable to get the best amplifier within your budget to go with your guitar. Even the greatest or most costly guitar will sound disappointing, if the amplifier is not of good quality. You'll also need a good effects box with lots of characteristics such as distortion, reverb, chorus, amp simulator and easy adjustment modules.
Last but not least, don't forget the cables. Just like the amp, its better in the long run to spend your money on good quality cabling. At least then, you will not have to replace them so often.
