    It wasn't all that long ago-2012 to be exact-that Yamaha surprised us all with the THR10, which I called "one of the most impressive recording and practice amps I've ever played."
    Like The Matrix, Yamaha has released its part two and three sequels in close succession, but unlike The Matrix, the company's two new THR10C and THR10X amps are just as good, if not better, than their predecessor.
    Whereas the THR10 was designed to provide sort of a "one-size-fits-all" assortment of tones, the THR10C and THR10X offer amp and effect models targeted for more specific playing styles.
    The THR10C delivers classic amp tones that a re ideal for blues, country and classic rock, while the THR10X focuses on the high-gain territory that metal and hard rock players prefer. Like the original THR10, both are compact, portable and versatile amps packed with features like preset storage, USB connectivity, AC- or battery-powered operation, "extended stereo" output, detailed editing via THR Editor software and much more.

      I could not agree more. My friend in Jr high had a Yamaha strat style guitar, really nice playing guitar, fast neck and sounded great. I had a Yamaha car audio power amp in the early 90's YPA 700?... it was super clean power and was a work horse. I have some older Yamaha rack gear, GEP50, SPX90-II, REV7, and they are really awesome units. Add in a WR250R dual sport and I have to say, spot on.... Yamaha is bad ass at everything they do.

    It's Paul from Guitar World, a salesman who plays guitar. I'd suggest anyone thinking of buying one look to youtube for musicians that use them. This vid doesn't do justice. I own all three, 10, 10C, and 10X. These amps are the cats pajamas. And with the THR editing software, the slippers too.

      I'd start with the THR, it covers both low gain, and high gain amps. THRC is all low gain amps, plays really nice with pedals. THRX all high gain amps, sounds authentic, and no outboard stomps needed.

    thr10x which i have is best-u can adjust settings for all kinds of tones from van halen, soundgarden, the bass gives a lemmy tone or you can swich to clean and add one effect like a phaser or tremelo for a rich, thick vintage tone. so portable too! definitley the one to pick!

    • @jasondesjardins7371
      @jasondesjardins7371 7 років тому

      Is it reasonably loud? I realize it's not for jamming with others but is the sound reasonably "big" or does it sound like it's coming out of a radio? I'm really impressed so far.

    • @SuperDimeslime333
      @SuperDimeslime333 7 років тому +2

      @lemer3 7 років тому +1

      Jason Desjardins i have giggeg with it (thr10x). Best sound i have ever had at a gig. Used two sm57's pointing at each of the speakers, had the sound guy run it in stereo, and add the sound of it through the monitors as well. Best gigs i have played and everyone was complementing my tone, they couldn't believe it was coming out of such a little device. After the second gig i saw no more need for my jcm 900 and my pedals.

    • @rymns

      Wrong. the "X" has a more sensible gain knob, like the cream version, but with more gain output. You wont get the same tones with both.
