I like Blackstar too.  I didn't chime in earlier since I have the low watt HT5R.  It sounds great and does have a nice Marshall roar.  Haven't had it all that long, but looking at build quality, I expect it to be durable.  I'd be interested to read your comments after you have had it for a while as my son is going to be looking for something in the same area as you around the end of the year.

Will be happy to give the feedback on it...though my memory sucks so you might have to remind me..!!

I don't think you'll be disappointed Blackstars sound really good.  Not the greatest cleans but the overdrive sounds are pure Marshall.

Not the greatest, but I was able to get a decent enough "Slow Dancing..." by Mayer tone out of it with a Strat...

My tastes at the moment are leaning more towards blues and rock anyway...so a bit of chorus and I'll be sorted lol
