Unusually for valve amplifiers, St. James amps are designed with a universal input power supply. This means that the mains input range is rated at 100Vac to 240Vac and capable of operating at 50Hz and 60Hz. (They are actually tested beyond these rated limits.) Therefore, these products can be used anywhere in the world without needing to adjust anything. Not only will they simply function wherever used, but they will also be completely consistent in tone and output power, regardless of any changes or fluctuations in local mains supply. Along with the size and weight benefits, this makes them ideal for a musician who travels internationally.

The Blackstar St. James 212VOC Fawn Cabinet is the perfect match for the St James series of guitar head amplifiers, complementing the amps’ tone, looks and light weight. The Fawn Tolex on this cab matches the finish of the EL34 Head. This vertical 2×12″ Cabinet can be used with either an open back or closed back, and is fitted with two exclusive Celestion G12Z-70 ‘Zephyr’ speakers. 4 Ohm and 16 Ohms inputs increase versatility.
