Infinite Shape Feature dials your drive from American to British tone

The Blackstar ID:Core 10 V3 is packed with a massive spread of tones, by virtue of Blackstar's Infinite Shape Feature (ISF). When turned fully counterclockwise, you'll lend an American characteristic to your voice, with a tight bottom end and aggressive middle. Turned all the way to the right, you'll enjoy more of a British vibe, with a woodier sound that's less aggressive. However you dial in the ID:Core 10 V3 between the two, you'll enjoy a musical response that just asks to be taken onstage or into the studio.

Super Wide Stereo technology envelops you in immersive sound

Playing through the ID:Core 10 V3 is an immersive experience, on account of Blackstar's Super Wide Stereo technology. Not only do its 12 effects sound amazing in stereo, plugging your mobile device into the ID:Core 10 V3's Line In/Streaming jack results in a multidimensional jam session that's a whole lot of fun.

Classic combo performance

With its function-per-knob control scheme and familiar combo roar, the ID:Core 10 V3 delivers big as a stage monitor or studio platform.
