When my old amp blew up onstage, I gave the @blackstaramps Amped 1 a try. It quickly became one of the most important pieces of gear in my rig. I used it to record the new Maebe album. I've played it through 4x12s at @arctangentfestival and @rdrfestival, and run it direct into PAs across the UK. It takes pedals so well, it convinced me to switch from modeling. My bandmate bought one after trying mine. This is not an ad, just me being generally hyped on a piece of gear that not enough people are raving about and has genuinely made my life easier #blackstaramps #guitaramp #guitarist #guitarplayer #guitargear

The Amped 1 is the single most important piece of gear in my workshop. It's been used in the design and testing of all my pedals from the skeleton key onwards and is just an amazing piece of kit!

Thus and the amped 2 are some of the best floor amps out there. Doesn’t get the promotional drive they deserve. @blackstaramps I think you’re missing a trick by not combining this tech with your new digital modellers units. I have zero interest in frfr cabs and still yet to hear one that sounds and feels like a real cab. The amped series bridges that gap.🙌

I picked one up recently, I'd played one round a friend's place and it just stuck in my head - it's just so simple and fun to play through! Clearly I made the right choice! 🔥
