Blackstar Amplifier HT-112OC MkII

The HT112OC MkII is a compact 1x12 guitar cabinet designed to complement the brand's HT heads, such as the HT-1RH, HT-5RH, or HT-20RH. Its main strength is its convertible open/closed back design: the rear panel can be opened or closed depending on the desired tone, allowing you to switch from a wider, airier sound to a tighter, punchier response. It features a 12-inch Blackbird 50 speaker rated at 50 watts into 16 ohms, with surprisingly powerful projection for its size. Sturdy and relatively compact, it also works very well with other small all-tube heads and handles both clean and modern overdrive tones with ease. It is currently one of the most versatile options in the affordable small cabinet segment.
