I just bought it and can't wait to get it in the mail. These kinds of modeling amps are perfect because they have a headphone output that I can connect to my big JBL PartyBox 310. And an amp that is already excellent becomes absolutely incredible when connected to the right speaker system. When I feel like it and want to play with something light, I can unplug it and use the amp alone. And the Blackstar Architect software is really excellent-intuitive, well-designed where it needs to be, simple, and so on. I still keep a tube amp with a 2x12 cab for when I want to change things up and need a big, full sound, but I stick with modeling amps because there's no need for big amps nowadays. I even have the little Positive Grid Spark Go.
@@peterdaam6447 The Spark 2 promises to be even better! And to answer your question, I love both if we’re talking purely about sound quality. My Spark is connected to my JBL, so I get an amazing sound. The modeling from this brand is rather exceptional. I got the big Blackstar .
Diggin the new studio set up. As always, keep these informative vids coming because you all keep me inspired to keep picking up a guitar and playing around. In addition, you always keep me wanting to try out new gear that you test.
These amps are great, I got Core 100 some years back and it sounds just right, very comfortable for rehearsing and playing at home. most of my RUclips videos I’ve been recording with this amp. Cheers 🤘
These have always been great and so easy to dial in great tones. I wrote Blackstar a while back and said they should put the ID Core amp tech into a pedal.
I want to like Black Star but- I bought their Club 40 tube amp that has digital output on the rear w/cab sim installed- and it sounded great, until it tore up. I put it in stand by- which is how you activate the digital output on the rear so it shouldn't hurt anything- and when I came back from getting something to drink- it wouldn't make a peep. No matter which output you use, no matter if you bypass the preamp- no sound. So, I called BS- they wanted nothing to do with it and told me that if I bought it used- it's not their problem, it's mine. Even had the nerve to suggest I buy a better BS amp- yeah, right. Like I'm going to throw another grand behind the 500$ amp I just bought that tore up. It didn't even make 1 year man- I had it about 6 months.
Superb. I was in on Friday last and chopped in my Katana Mk 2 Head and Blackstar HT-112 cab for the the 40 watt version. My gigging days are over and this will do me nicely thank you!! Great video as always guys!
I still have a TVP series. I think I would keep this amp over any other in my arsenal. Great, diverse,ease of use, seems a complete package. Black Star is an excellent amp in any flavor. Met Ed Hohay, and he signed it at a local music store seminar. The thing I took away from his presentation is that they are really involved in what their customers are concerned and interested in, engaged I guess would be a better description. I’m sold on everything Black Star.
I have a Blackstar ID Core V3 20W and it is a fantastic practice amp. Many tone shaping features at least for beginners. I like the power adjustment on the V4 - which is a great feature to have. They could have included an FX loop in the 40W though or atleast start including the footswitches with these models.
I don't know if you guys go back and read the comments from the old videos. There's got to be thousands. But I love that I can go back and find these old videos to view and totally enjoy them. You guys are definitely my favorite gear Channel and even when I'm not interested in the gear that you guys are talking about it's still really entertaining. I just love this channel.
Just watched the Video,,I had previously owned the original 20 watt version then I moved on to the 40 watt V2 and after watching your video I plugged my little amp into my MacBook pro after downloading the Architect software and it has just opened up the sounds I want from this little belter.If you can go for the 40 watt version and download that software to adjust the amp to your sounds in your head.The presets loaded in from new are ok but not a "PATCH" on what you can extract out of these little beauty's
I still love my v1 ID core, but to be honest if they would just make it Bluetooth and with an app I would upgrade in a heartbeat. I was excited to see V4 being released then let down with lack of that feature. They could be a Katana/ Spark killer if they added an app. I think their tone is better than both of them, but I don’t want to be tied to a laptop to dial in more tones. (First world problems I know), but it’s 2024 keep up or get left behind. Excellent work as always gentlemen!
@taxationistheft2.0Perhaps sort your tones out before you go outside? There’s no reason you’d have to be constantly changing settings on the fly - what’s wrong with you?
Got my Laney GH100L Made in England amp since the 90s and nothing so far despite all the latest tech convinced me to ditch it for something else. Still faithful and in love 😅
These are the absolute best for when it’s very late, everyone is sleeping, and you just want to play very quietly. Because you had an idea, and you can’t sleep anyway.
Tone control. You will most likely find you can control the tone controls by holding the tap button while you adjust the gain, volume and ISF. At least that is how Blackstar have handled adjusting parameters with missing physical knobs on their TVP amps in the past so I assume these might be the same. For example on the ID30 if you hold the tap button while turning the ISF control it adjusts the mids on that amp despite it having three less physical knobs than the larger amps you could still make all the same adjustments from the amp.
I was between this and the debut range. Went for the debut in the end and it is just so much easier to use. Just lets me play and worry about effects later.
Agree. ID: Core 40 represents the pragmatic balance of affordability and versatility. Pretty much the perfect practice amp for those owning just one amp. Has been singe the original.
Waiting on the addition of BT which is supposedly on the way for newer models. And I do still wish Core amps had standard EQ controls instead of just ISF (rather than bury them in software)
Blackstar gets alot of crap from amp snobs but these are great practice amps. I still have my V2 20 watt and I see no reason to part with it. It's portable, sounds good, loud enough but also quiet enough for late night apartment sessions. No complaints.
Owww, lovely and affordable amps, again..😀 , Still,… i wil not buy amps or pedals anymore that require special software to use them to the full.. why? Well, i have several equipment now for which the software is no longer supported like Fender amp’s, Digitech Multi effect boxes etc., after a few years the manufacturer stops support and removes the websites with presets and rythm patterns and the software ib the device stops working because it cannot reach the right website anymore .. so these amps are not for me …
I have a first issue Id Core stereo 40 that I got used for under $100 USD a few years ago. It has all but the newest features that the Id core series have the USB output jack is really the part that is really different.. I have th right cable for mine so no worries as to using ght online software to tweak my amp as I like... with a little mod i plan to do to my amp adding a pair of switched 1/4 " extension speaker output jacks I will install recessed in the bottom of the amp cab to drive a pair of vertical/tower 4X12" speaker cabs when stood side by side with the amp laid face down with the controls forward is essentially a "Full Stack" the tiny size makes it the right size to use as a head. with the switched extension speaker output jacks that disable the internal speakers when in use. not a difficult mod. and the custom speaker cabs I will build for that purpose... each with an internal power supply and mini amp board to get even more power output over what the amp makes. coming from the tall cabs. I like it loud and proud being a child of the 60's and 70's at 65 yrs old now I still like all kinds of music. the guitar I bought to do an extreme upgrade/mod started as a Starcaster Strat electris guitar By: Fender(said that on the head stock) with a hand made extended Brushed Stainless Steel Pick guard loaded with 3 quad rail/coil humbuckers and wired like a '50s Les Paul with Coil splits ... Yup 3 P/Ups 3 P/P volumt potd 2 regular and one P/P in the bridge pos. to activate the bridge and neck P/Ups together regardless of any other controls.. All of the pots are 500K audio taper. the custom space theme stars and planets paint job on the body and head stock reflect it's new name I dreamed up for it. My "Stellarcaster" is a space cool guitar that looks feels and plays great sounds great and has nearly unlimited tons available when plugged into the ID Core Stereo 40 with all its effects.. . Wanna Play???
Good stuff and the studio looks great. I am however quite worried that we are approaching the 1st of february and I haven't seen a single Klon shootout in 2024 yet. You alright guys?
My only previous experience with an ID Core (IDCore 100) was it sounded great with my head immediately in front of the speaker but as soon as I moved away it just sounded weird and not like a guitar amp. That was as an owner of multiple Blackstar amps including a few TVP amps so it was disappointing. I'd be keen to hear one of these in person to see if that's improved as I no longer own any Blackstar products but I am in the need for a small portable practice solution.
I've found that almost all amps sound good with your head sitting right in front of it. The moment you're off to the side or above, you're no longer hearing the pure tone.
@@ryanmrcs215 I guess the thing is it always sounds different off axis but the ID Core 100 I tried years ago sounded bad off axis, it was a weird out of phase sound. Pretty much every situation I've ever played has been off axis and the amps I like sound great even off axis. Actually the funny thing was with the ID260 I never really cared much for the Superwide stereo feature until the day I sold it and realised I'd always been too close to it for the feature to shine. I'd always had that turned off but the new owner liked it and asked me to leave it on. We then moved the amp to just outside the door of the next room and it sounded even better.
Just got a blackstar Debut 50r and that thing is killer, amd takes pedals so well! These look like a real disappointment...hardly any change. Amps nlike this should autmatically be bluetooth connectivity to phone apps. It doesnt even sound good/or any different from the previous itterations. They would be better making it £50 more and putting some real change to these amps. However the Debut 50r is probably my favourite bit of gear ive bought in the last year.
I always heard that the reason AC/DC sounds so raw and powerful... was that they literally sat in a room and jammed played the song straight through... if it didn't sound right just played it all over again! That's why it's rocking hard and raw! 🫡 I think music is better when played live not overly processed and over dubbed😮🫠
The USB C is cool, but still on the front panel which obstructs the controls whilst recording on computer. The USB connector should have been on the back panel.
Does Fender Mustang LT25 has this feature like blackstar ,where I can plug the amp to my phone and use the camera app to record guitar audio and video at the same time?
Im using the older ID30 TVP I like this Blackstar because I can plug into my secret weapon my PA system The ID core V4 can also be plugged into a PA.This model appeals to me because of the Stereo. Im just not sure if the emulation out is in Stereo????????
Then dont buy that .. Acoustic its not great. Better buy a boss acustic singer or if you want to go allround for more guitars then the katana is better.. It has an acoustic channel and i have made patches .. You know what i share them on the original boss website .. Blackstar Id-Core is good practice amp and songwriting dont expect high end from it. Realize sound you hear in the video is not the real sound of the amp in your room, but the line out that is recorded and then you listen it on your speakers .. I hope you understand that. You cant test sound on youtube but you got to hear it for real, and then you can say if you like it .. Succes with your acoustic playing ! I share this to help and not to joke :-)
@@TheCSteve yeah upon further research i got to know about the Boss Katana 50. I think a better amp than a guitar will lay the foundation as I'll get bored of the tones from Blackstar
@@TheBestGuitaristForReal take the Katana 100. More options for little bit more.. Black Star id core is good for punkrock 🎸 layer the guitar like Green Day does . Its fun 😁
The choices these amp manufacturers make baffle me. I want to adjust my unit wirelessly on my iPad (thr has that already for years) and - which I cannot stress enough - give me the effects loop! I do not buy without the ability to loop post signal chain… I mean cmon it’s a practice amp! Seems they never learn, but hey, more “phaser” you’ll never use… argh. I want to use my ditto and practice…
OD1 and 2 sound terrible. Super Crunch is ok. Overall I fell like overdrive sounds much better in my Fly3. Just judging by the sound of this video I fell like ID:COREv4 is far behind Katana and Catalyst.
That's how PRS usually sound to me. I've had a play through a few over the years and never liked the tone from em. I feel like a lot of products these days very successfully cajole people into believing they're really good because they have a lot of fancy looking bells and whistles and can be very expensive, but the basic function or point of the product is lacking. My first guitar was an unbranded strat copy I got for £80 that was absolutely awful looking back with a flat fretboard and dead pups. I was clueless back then and just was wanting an electric to start learning. I swapped out the pups and used it for years though as I was learning, and a friend of mine who had a PRS worth nearly 2 grand would jam with me and even though his PRS felt WAAAY nicer to play, the actual tone I got from my cheapo hunkajunk with some decent single soils put in it was often gorgeous while his tone always sounded flat and plasticky, particularly clean and not drowned in effects and distortion. Nevertheless, I eventually started earning enough to buy a proper strat which I tweaked a bit over the years - that plays, feels and sounds gorgeous.

Bass knob = Resonance.
Treble knob = Presence.
If you hold the Tap Tempo button, it accesses the secondary use of the knob.
I assumed the same except the amp they showed on the screen did not have a Bass, Treble or Mid knob.
New set looks awesome ! And as always, great demo, great playing and lovely people :D

Cool pedal backdrop guys!

Just a couple hundred, because it doesn’t include markup.

Except for the only really good amps they made, you can only get those second hand: Artisan, Artist & S1.

Buy a right angle cable. I know it’s kinda annoying but that’s the best workaround

How is v4 different from v3 ( 40 watt)

Shame they couldn't add the looper that's in the 100
core40,20 and 10 , only difference is the size and speaker..? all the function exactly same right.?
10 Doesn't have and input for the footswitch.

You cant test sound on youtube but you got to hear it for real, and then you can say if you like it .. Succes with your acoustic playing ! I share this to help and not to joke :-)
@@TheCSteve yeah upon further research i got to know about the Boss Katana 50. I think a better amp than a guitar will lay the foundation as I'll get bored of the tones from Blackstar
@@TheBestGuitaristForReal take the Katana 100. More options for little bit more.. Black Star id core is good for punkrock 🎸 layer the guitar like Green Day does . Its fun 😁
@@TheCSteve I'm poor mate
Why does the room look darker?

I feel no need for any other practise amp now that i have the Laney loudpedal.
Still no Bluetooth???
Six voices in his head, so hexaphrenic.
od2 ftw
The choices these amp manufacturers make baffle me. I want to adjust my unit wirelessly on my iPad (thr has that already for years) and - which I cannot stress enough - give me the effects loop! I do not buy without the ability to loop post signal chain… I mean cmon it’s a practice amp! Seems they never learn, but hey, more “phaser” you’ll never use… argh. I want to use my ditto and practice…
ISF is THE reason I will not buy one... Wish they droped it and had a standard low mid high...
Not sure about the new background.
OD1 and 2 sound terrible. Super Crunch is ok. Overall I fell like overdrive sounds much better in my Fly3. Just judging by the sound of this video I fell like ID:COREv4 is far behind Katana and Catalyst.
The PRS doesnt sound that good, kinda plasticky
That's how PRS usually sound to me. I've had a play through a few over the years and never liked the tone from em. I feel like a lot of products these days very successfully cajole people into believing they're really good because they have a lot of fancy looking bells and whistles and can be very expensive, but the basic function or point of the product is lacking. My first guitar was an unbranded strat copy I got for £80 that was absolutely awful looking back with a flat fretboard and dead pups. I was clueless back then and just was wanting an electric to start learning. I swapped out the pups and used it for years though as I was learning, and a friend of mine who had a PRS worth nearly 2 grand would jam with me and even though his PRS felt WAAAY nicer to play, the actual tone I got from my cheapo hunkajunk with some decent single soils put in it was often gorgeous while his tone always sounded flat and plasticky, particularly clean and not drowned in effects and distortion. Nevertheless, I eventually started earning enough to buy a proper strat which I tweaked a bit over the years - that plays, feels and sounds gorgeous.
