I happened to see a ad for the 50R, and it seemed to check all my boxes. After reading a few reviews, watching a few videos on the amp, and checking out the Blackstar website, I pulled the trigger and ordered one... When it came in, I immediately tried it out with several of my single-coil and HB guitars, and all I can say is WOW, this amp definitely performs well above what you pay for it!!! The amp seems built well, only weighs around 20 pounds, and has a very small footprint. I ordered the one with the cream tolex and wine grill. I decided to try another speaker in it (not that there was anything wrong with the stock speaker), so I installed a Celestion V-Type, which made it sound ever better!!! The reverb sounds good and I like the 5 watt setting. Definitely a great amp for the money... Review: La finition générale est soignée. Le son clair est proche de ce qu'offre les amplis Fender. Le bright ajoute du mordant, de l'attaque. L'ampli est puissant mais le commutateur 5watts permet une utilisation en appartement sans problème. La boucle d'effets intégrée derrière La reverbe est efficace grace au volume propre et propose soit un espace Plate soit Hall L'égalisation intégrè à la fois l'ISF propre à la marque et le contrôle en plus des graves et des aigus, des médiums ! Enfin, l'overdrive permet un son crunch, blues-rock mais pas au-delà. Et c'est là que cet ampli devient intéressant ! Avec un footswitch et une tube screamer ou une disto en façade vous pourrez avoir l'équivalent d' un ampli trois canaux ! L'overdrive est de très bonne qualité et le Mojo est présent pour repiquer du SRV ou du Hendrix ! Conclusion : le prix est hyper attractif et Blackstar frappe fort avec cette gamme qui conviendra aussi bien à la maison que dans des petites salles ## Features - Blackstar Debut 50R BA213010 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BVRRHTCK | | Item model number | DEBUT50R | | Manufacturer | BLACKSTAR | | Product Dimensions | 46.1 x 38.7 x 23 cm; 9 kg | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Blackstar - **Colour:** Beige - **Compatible devices:** Guitar - **Material:** Amplifier Electronics, Paper (Speaker Cone) - **Output wattage:** 50 Watts ## Images ![Debut 50R BA213010 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81UaMAFWPKL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by O***Y on 15 March 2025* I was looking for a small non-digital, solid-state 50 watt combo that wouldn't break my back taking it to and from practices and gigs.

I use this with my pedals and get some ace sounds from it, volume knob is a little fiddly and acts a bit weird on mine though when on the 50watt setting I don't use the reverb effect, it isn't that good, gets you by for home use I guess or for ideas etc. I use a strymon big sky though so I'm an effects snob lol I've recorded on this using a sennheiser e906 and an Sm57 and worked great for little demos, definitely not for like full blown recording, you want studio kit for that, but for recording ideas and demos it's great Aux is a great feature for play along too i use it alot for worship song practice for church, I spend time in the USA a lot too so I'd like to have one over there as well for practice at the apt, I have a silver jubilee 100 half stack there but being valve I only use it for recording or gigging at the big venues there I play, so I'd like this to use for home practice use out there Headphone jack as standard Effects loop which is nice to see in a practice Amp! Colour is beautiful. I love it. Distortion is decent but I clean channel it only and use my pedal board. I run my zvex box of rock and EVH5150 through it and it sounds sick with my Gibson les Paul slash November burst edition, get some rehearsal space and crank up the vol on the Amp and it's great fun This would be a great range to run into a half stack head and cab line I think, solid state but still great, blackstar are them surprising brands that are a little cheaper but excellent value and quality It's a decent size too and well built, fits in your car, sits on my desk nicely, portable, travel friendly, functionality as expected though noisy when cranked, like all amps lol... Especially budget range amps.... Noise gate sorts that nicely, I use the decimater 2 and works perfectly on all my pedals AND the Amp so.... 100% a fantastic buy and totally recommend it over the alternatives like the Fender for eg. ## Frequently Bought Together - Blackstar Debut 50R Cream Oxblood 50 Watt Electric Guitar Amplifier with Reverb - D'Addario DP0002 String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Remover- 3 in 1 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/545629639-debut-50r-ba213010](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/545629639-debut-50r-ba213010) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
