## Description

The Yamaha THR5 10 Watt Guitar Amplifier is a portable 10 watt guitar amplifier with built-in amp modeling, effects and tuner. Featuring two 3" speakers, the THR5 can be powered with the included power supply or with eight AA batteries for on the go playing. The Yamaha designed speaker enclosure has been optimized to handle both guitar from its 1/4" input and stereo playback from its 1/8" auxiliary input. With 5 amp types to select from, including Clean, Crunch, Lead, Brit Hi, and Modern, the THR5 provides you with a variety of tonal choices. A selection of built in effects such as Chorus, Tremolo, Phaser, Delay, and three types of Reverb allow you to customize your tone further. All of the included effects are based on Yamaha's Virtual Circuitry Modeling technology, or VCM. VCM effects were created to emulate the subtleties of analog effect pedals and amps. The THR Editor, a software download available from Yamaha, allows you in-depth control of the THR5 that goes beyond the control knobs on the amp itself. It also provides you with a compressor and a noise gate effect for the amp to give you further control of your sound.

Review: Taking it out of the box, it seemed sort of small. That first impression was replaced with being impressed with it's retro design and solid build. The handle is not flimsy as some reviewers have suggested. There's a built-in tuner which is handy. There are five Amp sounds: Clean, Crunch, Lead, Brit Hi and Modern, that reproduce popular amp sounds. In addition, there’s an Effect knob with Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, and Tremolo. There's also a Delay/Reverb knob with Delay, Delay Reverb, Spring and Hall. Finally, there's Gain, Master and Volume knobs. All together, the Yamaha THR5 can create a wide variety of sounds & effects. The general audio quality is very good and it can get relatively loud. Depending on the patch cord used, there might be a slight buzz. Lastly, there’s a USB socket and supplied software for connecting it to a computer. All in all, a very capable, great sounding mini-amp that takes up very little space and looks good. I'm impressed.
Review: This amp feels like the cutting edge in 2023. I've played dozens of guitars thru many amplifiers (every major amp modeler, loads of average solid state and computerized amps from the past 3 decades, a few ridiculous tube icons) and I would say that this amp is as good as it's specs can give you. This is the best amp for $200. This is the best amp with 10 watts behind it. There are no unjustified compromises. This Yamaha has expanded fully into its niche and left hardly any room for improvement. The sounds are amazing. This is the most musical amp I've ever owned. You can just crank all the knobs in any direction and something decent will come out. The little dual speakers are perfect. This thing sounds huge. The bass is deep enough that it never feels like its actual size. The amp models are perfect. I don't really use the gain models, but they sound fantastic. The three flavors are entirely distinct and make up a comprehensive collection of lead tones. I'm especially happy with the "Modern" model. It is much more dynamic than your typical pot-and-pans racket EXTREME full-gain amp setting. The clean model has ergonomic headroom, the crunch model is flexible, and they're all vibrantly touch-sensitive. This is not the kind of amp where you think about other amps while you're playing it. It's everything you need for a living room. The sounds you're thinking about are in there, and the doors to get them out are all unlocked. The effects are not knockoff crap. They are real. The reverb isn't a "well, at least you've got one" muddy echo. It's a whole, beautiful, drippy reverb suite that I'd find good enough for a pedal board. Can't say enough good. It feels, looks, and sounds great. It is really the best of everything. I rarely have such unqualified praise for gear. This thing is ergonomic and functional enough to pull me away from Neural for practice and light jamming. It is forward-thinking. The interface is intuitive, and the controls are well-tuned and thought out. It has set a new standard for me; my old mini amps are basically useless now haha. Here are my dumb little Cons: 1. I wish it had a 3-band EQ. I don't need it. This tone knob is good. I just want it. 2. The tuner has less polish than the rest of it. I use it often, but accessing it is clunky. Turn the amp on, wait for it to wake up enough for the tuner, press and hold the Tap: Delay. Don't press it too soon. Don't release it too quickly. Oops, you missed somehow. Try again. And you've got that big ugly LCD screen just for this. The rest of the amp feels and looks so great that this little headache sticks out a lot. Maybe I'm dreaming, but I'd have paid extra for a cute little LED array and a dedicated control. 3. Need a computer to access everything. This amp has a built-in compressor and presets! You gotta plug it in for that, tho. At that point, I'd rather use modeling software and get literally everything all at once. I wish I had a compressor knob sometimes. I really want all the controls from the bigger models, but this wattage is perfect and it'd feel dumb doubling my wattage just for presets. These cons aren't a big deal, but they all definitely make the amp feel less like the "small model" and more like the "budget model" when the rest of the amp says the opposite. I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend quite this much on a practice amp. I'm glad I did. It isn't a "practice" amp. It just does that really well too. What a cool little instrument.

*by C***E on 10 March 2025*

Awesome sound for such a little amp. Tones are incredible for such an affordable package. I own a kemper profiler but even that takes a lot of rigging. I think this little guy is a perfect gift for a beginner or advanced guitarist as it's small, super portable and sounds like a champ. I didn't expect it to be this loud too. Wish I had amps like this when I first started learning. No need for pedals or modelers to get going. I'm definitely looking into the big brothers now. [Thr10/ Thr30]
