BCC-Ironheart IRT60H 60W All-Valve Guitar Head Amp
The IRT60H captures authentic tube tone with professional studio connectivity in a compact format. This UK-built head pairs all-valve circuitry with direct recording capabilities, designed for producers and engineers tracking guitar that demands both classic harmonic character and seamless DAW integration without unnecessary bulk.
Tube Architecture & Tone Character
Hand-selected 4 x ECC83 and 2 x 6L6 valves drive this 60-watt amplifier, delivering the harmonic complexity and natural compression essential for recording guitar sources that sit clearly in a mix. The three channels—clean, rhythm with switchable pre-boost, and lead—each respond dynamically to input dynamics while the dual EQ sections (bass, middle, treble with pull-push shift on each) enable precise tone shaping across multiple frequency ranges for layering and balancing tracked parts.
Recording Integration & I/O Flexibility
A comprehensive I/O suite includes XLR D.I. output with switchable cabinet emulation, enabling direct tracking into interface or console without sacrificing amp character or mic placement variables. Six speaker sockets accommodate flexible cabinet configurations for different tracking scenarios, while 1/4" FX send/return loops and 1/8" aux input support modern pedalboard chains and backing track monitoring during sessions.

At a Glance
The BCC-Ironheart IRT60H is a 60-watt all-valve recording amplifier that captures classic tube warmth, natural compression, and harmonic complexity without requiring a room full of gear. Three channels—clean, rhythm with switchable pre-boost, and lead—paired with dual EQ sections and pull-push frequency shift give you surgical tone control across sessions, while the XLR D.I. output with switchable cabinet emulation lets you record direct to your interface and blend or reamp later without losing the amp's character. Its dynamics-tracking valve response means every nuance of your playing translates into the recording, and the included footswitch and free Ironheart plug-in software extend your mixing and performance options.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tubes does the IRT60H use and how do they affect the tone?
The amplifier uses hand-selected 4 x ECC83 and 2 x 6L6 tubes in an all-valve circuitry that delivers harmonic complexity, natural compression, and responsive dynamics tracking characteristic of traditional tube designs. The tube complement contributes to the warm tube breakup and vintage valve character that defines the amp's sound.
Can I record this amp directly into my interface without a cabinet?
Yes. The XLR D.I. output includes a switchable cabinet emulation, allowing you to record direct to your console or interface while preserving amp character. You can also reamp the signal through a physical cabinet later if needed.
What speaker configurations does the IRT60H support?
The amp includes six speaker sockets with extension options: 1 x 16 Ohm, 1 x 8 Ohm, 2 x 16 Ohms, 1 x 4 Ohms, and 2 x 8 Ohms, giving you flexibility to match your cabinet setup whether you're running a single cab or stacking multiple units.
What's included in the box and how do I control the channels live?
The IRT60H ships with an FS4-IRT footswitch for hands-free channel and feature control, free Ironheart plug-in software, and of course the head itself. The footswitch lets you switch between clean, rhythm, and lead channels and access dynamics, tone, reverb, and wattage controls during performance.
Is this amp suitable for hard rock and metal, or is it better for blues?
The IRT60H is voiced for hard rock, metal, blues, and rock and excels across all four genres. Its three channels and dual EQ sections with pull-push frequency shift allow you to dial in clean tones for blues, aggressive lead character for metal, and everything in between.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $105 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
