Features

Your sound, wherever you are.
Yamahas THR amps have captivated guitarists around the globe. The little amp with a big tone and a feature-set designed to give players just what they need when theyre not on-stage has finally proven that a gig or session isnt the only place you should expect the perfect tone. And now that tone’s getting even better – the newly upgraded THR5v2 and THR10v2 feature enhanced cabinet behaviors such as multi-micd speaker simulation, for better sound quality with cleaner cleans and dirtier distortion.

VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling)
VCM effects are capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, going beyond simple simulation and delivering the truly musical performance that makes classic analog gear invaluable even in today’s digital production environment.

Yamaha Hi-Fi Audio Technology
THR was developed with Yamaha’s award-winning AV division to offer true hi-fi stereo sound and a new experience in guitar amplifiers. The exclusive, specially designed speaker enclosure is optimised to handle both guitar and stereo playback sounds making THR uniquely capable of giving you amazing tone for both your guitar and your track from a compact, portable amp.
