trying to decide on this amp the only down side is it does not ave reverb thinking of getting a reverb add on reissue 63 reverb unit fender but the price$$$$ any ideas about maybe a differant unit that might not be such a large investment due to fact that im getting the black star for under $250.00 dollars?

The recent Boss/Fender FRV1 reverb pedal is superb - can't recommend it enough.

Almost as good, is the Digitech Hardwire Reverb pedal.

Both of these would be a good match for your (lovely) Blackstar rig.

If budget is a serious issue, then a 2nd hand Electro Harmonix Holy Grail will do a pretty good job too..

Are you sure you need the HT-5? HT-1R has reverb, aux in, headphones out (emulated) ...

I LOVE my HT-5. Great little amp, awesome tone. I have the mini-stack not the combo.
