Groundbreaking MOSFET Design: The Debut 50R features Blackstar’s innovative MOSFET preamp design, which replicates the warm, rich tones of high-end valve amplifiers. This lightweight, analogue technology ensures an authentic valve-like sound, enhancing your playing experience with detailed and dynamic audio.

Versatile Performance: Perfect for both practice and live settings, the Debut 50R includes two footswitchable channels: Clean and Overdrive. The Clean channel, inspired by the HT-20R MKII, features a “Bright” switch and generous headroom. The Overdrive channel, modeled after the St. James 6L6, covers a wide range of tones, from blues and classic rock to metal. The patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) tone control allows for precise sound shaping to match any genre.

Essential Features: The Debut 50R is equipped with a headphone/recording output that simulates the tonal characteristics of a guitar speaker cabinet, ideal for silent practice or recording. The power reduction feature enables you to switch from 50W to 5W, allowing you to play at lower volumes without compromising tone quality. Additionally, the amplifier includes a series effects loop and custom-voiced digital reverb with Plate and Hall options for added versatility.

Music Playback and Connectivity: For added convenience, you can connect your phone, tablet, or audio device to the Line In for jamming along with your favorite tracks through the amp’s speakers. The dual footswitch control (sold separately) allows you to switch channels and enable or disable reverb effortlessly, providing flexibility for live performances.
