Description

The Blackstar ID 10 V4 is a compact 10W stereo modelling guitar amplifier designed to deliver inspiring tones from the moment you plug in. Developed by the same UK R&D team responsible for Blackstar's professional amplifiers, the fourth-generation ID combines intuitive guitarist-friendly controls with powerful digital technology, making it an excellent choice for beginners, home practice and recording.

Six selectable amp voices take you from warm and bright cleans through Crunch, Super Crunch and powerful overdrive tones. Blackstar's patented ISF control makes it easy to shape the overall character of your sound, while built-in modulation, delay and reverb effects provide plenty of scope to create complete guitar tones without additional pedals.

Two Blackstar 3" speakers deliver immersive Super Wide Stereo sound, while power reduction down to 1 watt makes the ID 10 V4 particularly well suited to home practice. Modern connectivity also allows you to record directly to a computer via USB-C or livestream to a smartphone using a standard TRRS cable.

Blackstar's free Architect software provides deeper editing, patch management and access to CabRig Lite, Blackstar's advanced speaker simulation technology, making the ID 10 V4 much more than a conventional beginner practice amplifier.
