Blackstar Artist FR Cabinet

The Blackstar Artist FR Cabinet gives your modeller the feel of a real guitar amp instead of a flat, lifeless speaker. It sounds clear and natural, but still pushes air like a traditional cabinet. From bedroom practice to studio work and live shows, this cabinet keeps your tone inspiring and easy to control. It looks right on stage, feels great to play through, and fits perfectly into any modern guitar rig.

Blackstar Artist FR Cabinet Review

Built by Blackstar’s amp design team, the Artist FR Cabinet blends full range sound with the response guitar players expect. A custom 12 inch speaker with a whizzer cone keeps the highs smooth while the rear bass port delivers strong, focused lows. Simple front panel controls including volume, a 3 band active EQ, and presence let you quickly dial in your sound for different guitars or rooms. Both versions include a built-in kickstand so you can tilt the cabinet back and clearly hear yourself during rehearsals or performances.
