700 Watts of Stadium-filling Tone
When you really need to fill a packed house, the Blackstar U700 Unite Elite bass head has you covered. Not only do you get 700 watts of cab-pummeling output. You also get virtually all the tone-shaping tools — overdrive, chorus, octave, compression, and more — baked right into the head. Switch between three power amp stages via the U700's Response control to shape your compression characteristics, natural drive, and dynamics. Choose between three distinct preamp voicings, then sculpt the result with a 3-band semi-parametric EQ. Increase your bass's punch, depth, and low end with compression, chorus, and sub-octave effects. The U700 is loaded with enough connectivity for live, studio, and home use.

High-headroom to high-gain
Whatever bass tone is in your head, you can coax it from the U700 Unity Elite. It all starts with Blackstar's unique Response control, which gives you the choice of three classic power amp stages: Linear, 6L6, and 6550. You also get three distinct preamp voicings: Classic, Modern, and Flat. The U700's Drive section is loaded with three overdrives — OD, Distortion, and Fuzz — with a user-controllable blend. Beyond that, a 3-band EQ with a semi-parametric Mid knob supplies you with plenty of sound-sculpting power. Need more punch, depth, or low-end muscle? No problem. The U700 features built-in compression, chorus, and sub-octave effects.

Loaded with useful features for stage and studio
The Blackstar U700 Unity Elite is packed to the gills with useful features. Connectivity abounds, with an XLR line output and a headphones output with independent level control. A -10dB pad accommodates both active and passive instruments, and an MP3/line input is onboard to supercharge your practice sessions. Integrate your pedals and external processors with the built-in effects loop. Finally, a cabinet-emulated line output and USB audio output make DI recording a breeze, while an included 2-channel footswitch and gig bag make this tiny powerhouse all the more impressive.
