Sound Like a Pro from the Start!
The Debut 50R is a simple and elegant, straightforward, purely analog alternative to entry-level digital modeling amps. Ideal for pedal players, the Debut 50R focuses more on tone and ease of use than on unnecessary gimmicks. This versatile amp is perfect for guitarists of all skill levels, whether playing in the bedroom, practicing in a small room, or performing on stage. With authentic tube-like sounds, all developed using MOSFET technology, the Debut 50R lets you sound like a pro right from the start.
Groundbreaking MOSFET Design
Blackstar’s exclusive MOSFET preamp design delivers an authentic, precise, tube-like tone in a lightweight, analog format. This design is based on Blackstar’s award-winning high-end tube amplifiers.
A Workhorse for the Gig
Perfect for first-time performers or seasoned guitarists seeking great tone and a reliable pedal platform for weekly pub gigs. The Debut 50R has the tone and power you need.
The Features They Need
The features have been carefully selected to cover all the needs of an aspiring guitarist for practice and performance: 2 footswitchable channels, our patented ISF tone control (Infinite Shape Feature), power reduction to 5 watts, serial effects loop, and a customizable digital reverb with plate and hall options.
Clean & Overdrive Channels
Two footswitchable channels (2-way footswitch sold separately), both based on Blackstar’s award-winning tube amps. The Clean channel is based on the HT-2R MKII with a "Bright" switch and plenty of headroom. The Overdrive channel is based on the St. James 20L6, covering everything from blues and classic rock to metal tones. Authentic tube tone reproduction was a core focus in developing the Debut 50R.
Quiet Practice
If you need to lower the volume, plug into the Debut 50R’s headphone/recording output and enjoy incredibly detailed, natural speaker simulation. The handy headphone/recording output simulates the tonal characteristics of a guitar speaker, delivering organic sounds for silent practice or direct home recording.
Power Reduction
The Debut 50R now features a switch to reduce power from 50W to 5W, allowing you to play at lower volumes without sacrificing tone.
Footswitchable Channels
Two footswitches for channel switching between Clean and Overdrive and for activating/deactivating reverb. This lets you shape your sound very flexibly with a 2-way footswitch (sold separately).
Music Playback
Connect your phone, tablet, or audio device and play your favorite tracks through the Debut 50R’s speakers.

In addition to the powerful 12" speaker, the power reduction to 5 watts and the reverb were the deciding factors for me.
The 5 watts on a 12" speaker with 8 ohms are still loud enough to annoy the neighbors.
With the Blackstar you get a solid basic sound that you can work with. It works just as well with single-coil pickups as it does with humbuckers. Whether passive or active.
It was the right choice for me.

Works with a simple 2-switch footswitch and a suitable cover is that of the Boss Katana 50,
Blackstar does not offer anything suitable in this respect
