Acoustically Engineered for Powerful, Accurate Sound.
Our sealed acoustically-tuned cabinet delivers powerful and articulate guitar tones and exceptional Bluetooth music playback. Two full-range drivers plus two passive bass radiators, combine with our Super Wide Stereo for an immersive, room-filling tone you won’t believe comes from something this small.

Component-Level Modelling.
Beam Mini delivers the dynamic, responsive feel of a true valve amp through advanced component-level modelling. Twelve authentic electric guitar amps (six Blackstar designs and five Ampton recreations of iconic amps), three bass amps, an acoustic voice and over 35 studio-grade effects deliver authentic tone with modern flexibility.

Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) captures.
Beam Mini is the first guitar amp that can load Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) captures. Load and play highly accurate captures of real valve amps and rigs, with the dynamic feel and response serious players expect.

Coming Spring 2026

The World’s Largest Tone Library.
Partnering with TONE3000, Beam Mini accesses the world’s largest open-source NAM library. Explore 200,000+ community-created captures — from classic and boutique amps to rare, experimental rigs directly from the Beam app.

Isolate Instruments in Real Time.

Beam Mini integrates Moises stem separation, letting you isolate or remove instruments from any song. Want to play along with a classic track? Remove the guitar and step into the player’s shoes, or isolate a part to study every detail of the performance.

This gives musicians a completely new way to practise, learn, and play along with their favourite music.

*Moises is not available on launch, software update coming August 2026.

IR-Driven CabRig.
CabRig uses IR-based speaker and mic simulation to deliver lifelike, room-filling presence, just like a cranked valve amp. Our ‘In The Room’ technology makes playing interactive, authentic and uncompromised.

In The Room Experience.
Experience the immersive sound and feel of being stood next to a real amplifier. Our unique ‘In the Room’ technology brings the raw power of an amp straight into your headphones, making you feel like you’re standing right in front of it.

Fingertip Control at the Speed of Light.
Our SpeedDial and light Beam display let you quickly refine your tones without needing the app, perfect for when inspiration strikes, or time is short. Ready to deep dive? Seamlessly switch over to our app to explore more.
