Description : St. James
Guitar amplifier manufacturer Blackstar today announced its first software release, the Blackstar St. James plugin. Created by the team behind the successful Artisan, Series One, ID:Series, and St. James lines, this plugin promises to set a new standard in the world of amp simulation.

ENGINEERED, NOT SIMULATED.
Introducing the St. James plugin. Developed by the same British team responsible for our tube amps, it’s the most authentic guitar amp plugin on the market.

St. James Suite – What’s Included :

ST. JAMES EL34 AMPLIFIERS
The St. James EL34 is a classic tone amp that combines premium British crunch with stunning American cleans. This amp has the warmth, ring, and squash that define the sound of iconic 60s amps. It’s ideal for pedals and comes alive when the gain stage is pushed to its limits.
6L6
While the EL34 evokes a vintage vibe, the 6L6 contrasts with the detail and clarity of modern designs. The 6L6 offers the same pristine dynamic range, but paired with our most powerful overdrive circuit to date. The Channel II Voice I’s design is incredibly close to its award-winning tube amp counterpart, with a “modern” preamp gain and a British-style passive tone stack, while the Channel II Voice II delivers a tight, articulate, modern metal sound.

JJN 50
JJN BLUESPOWER’s signature amp and effects in a modern plugin!
Introducing the JJN 50 plugin. Developed in collaboration with Jared James Nichols himself, this plugin captures the tone, magic, and BLUESPOWER of Jared’s signature sound.
Jared has been using Blackstar since 2010 to create his unique BLUESPOWER sound. His energetic performances and unpickable guitar technique have contributed to his growing reputation year after year, as more and more people become familiar with his unique blend of bluesy power and enthusiasm, all the way to bombastic, arena-ready rock ‘n’ roll. Now, with the JJN 50 plugin, the BLUESPOWER sound goes digital.
Jared and the Blackstar team have meticulously crafted a plugin that not only accurately captures his signature sound, but also allows you to immerse yourself in his world through unique amp sounds, stylish design, and carefully selected effects from Jared’s rare pedal collection.
This is Jared’s sound reimagined, ready to use in your system.
