The Blackstar Amped 2
A Whole Rig at Your Feet
Every guitarist dreams of a rig that delivers huge tone, control, and portability. The Blackstar Amped 2 makes that dream possible. The Blackstar Amped 2 puts an entire amp and pedalboard into one compact, powerful floor unit.
A Game-Changer on Stage
On stage, this 100-watt pedalboard amp powers a cabinet, feeds a PA, or records direct. It features three amp voicings, onboard modulation, delay, reverb, and drive/boost circuits. Get everything from shimmering cleans to crushing high-gain tones without needing separate gear.
The feel is dynamic and tube-like, with the push and sag guitarists love. Gigging players in South Africa can show up with a guitar, the Amped 2, and maybe a cab – ready for any stage. No more hauling heavy rigs or relying on backline setups.
Speaker Simulator and Direct Outputs
Fine-tune your cabinet, mic, and room simulations with CabRig technology. Output via XLR or stereo jack, or connect with USB for direct DAW recording. Balanced outputs with cab simulation allow silent gigs, while MIDI control integrates seamlessly into larger setups.
100W Amp + FX in a Compact Pedal
The Amped 2 is a 100-watt pedal power amplifier with integrated drive pedals and an advanced effects processor. Use it with a cabinet, in front of a traditional amp, or go direct. Power reduction down to 1W and USB-C connectivity make it perfect for stage or studio use.

High Headroom Power Amp Design
The high-headroom design delivers full output, even at 16 Ohms. Get maximum tone with any cabinet setup at 8 or 16 Ohms. Blackstar’s patented Response control lets you dial in authentic valve dynamics and power responses.

Advanced Effects Processor
Four studio-quality built-in effects – Drive, Modulation, Delay, and Reverb – offer exceptional versatility. Create your sound without extra pedals, making your rig lighter and your setup faster.
For players wanting to cut down their rig but step up their sound, the Amped 2 delivers. Big tone doesn’t need a big box.
