The Blackstar Beam Mini Smart Bluetooth Portable Amp redefines compact guitar amplification by combining advanced AI-driven modelling, next-generation connectivity, and pro-level tone shaping in a truly portable desktop format. Designed for electric, bass, and acoustic guitar, it delivers immersive stereo sound through dual full-range drivers and passive radiators, giving surprisingly powerful presence for its size.

At its core, the Beam Mini is the first amplifier to natively support Neural Amp Model (NAM) captures, unlocking access to over 200,000 community-created amp profiles via Tone3000 for incredibly authentic tone replication. Alongside this, Blackstar’s UK-engineered amp models include a wide range of electric, bass, and acoustic voices, paired with over 35 studio-grade effects and the brand’s signature ISF tone shaping for seamless American-to-British voicing control. Available from Sky Music Australia, it delivers a complete modern practice and recording solution in one compact unit.
