Yamaha THR Wired Desktop 15 Guitar Amps and 8 Effects, Bluetooth-Enabled, Standard Color (THR10II)

Well-thought-out design and great sound. Period. Yamaha delivered!Basically, there are so many things you can do. To keep it short - if you're a jamming or practicing at home, this is the only amp you need. For recording (on your shure sm57), as I said, simply great sound, plenty of options - hard to find anything this good (although the price isn't super fun, but worthy), and your mic will be happy to hear this amp. Hit that G string and rock!

Great practice amp. This is a good practice amp. Small footprint. Light. I play clean but this has a lot of versatility for a player that plays any style. Well made. I'm happy with my purchase. Loud enough for practice. Even shows articulation and dynamics of picking even though not a famous tube amp.

This is simply the perfect desktop practice amp. I love that it has separate volume controls for audio and guitar inputs so I can play a backing track from my laptop and dial it in with my guitar so it sounds like one cohesive mix. My wife loves that I can use headphones with it.The range of tones and amp sims it offers is large- especially when you access the extra features through the online app. I've been able to satisfactorily replicate Gilmour style reverb saturated leads, Dimebag style crunch, Hendrix style fuzz, in fact the only tone I haven't had much success getting close to is Brian May's but i think most of that comes from the odd wiring in the red special.Plenty of user-created tones available online, and it's easy to share and save your own.I did have to purchase a cable to connect it to my laptop usb and I wish it had just come supplied with that, but that's a minor gripe in the scheme of things.I purchased the 10W version which is plenty loud enough for in home use and desktop recording. If you were busking or playing live, especially with a drummer, I would consider the 30W version instead.Another plus, it makes for a great bluetooth speaker when I'm not using it as an amp.Overall, 10/10 would buy again.

An excellent practice amp. Gives a slight hum until you pick up the guitar, which grounds the amp and it becomes silent. This is for an older Telecaster. Newer equipment might perform better. I would have preferred the 30W model but for the price, this one is perfect, 10W per speaker. I can get a clean sound from this amp that makes my Tele sound almost like an acoustic. Great for learning. Turn up the gain and "effects" knob for distortion--limited range but all a beginner needs. Bluetooth interface makes it a very decent speaker for running jam tracks (for an acoustic guitar). I did not spring for WiFi. I'm not on stage and I have no problem with a cable. I replaced a cheaper Katana Boss with this. I believe this Yamaha is the best entry-level amp on the market.

Great little amp, with tons of features to dive into. Getting my sound on a small scale, think my living room, was very easy. I will be using it for practice purposes strictly, not for live performance. The Bluetooth feature is great, you get very high quality playback, with it's own volume control separate from the guitar volume. The THR Remote app on my iPad is very intuitive. I haven't dug into it completely, because once I start playing, I'd rather play than experiment, but I'll get there. It was a little pricey, but when I ordered it, I got $100 off by signing up for an Amazon Card. All in all, very happy.

Bought one as a wedding gift for a professional musician, and he swears by it. So, I bought one myself, and haven’t fired up proper amps for practice since.Pros:Clean and distorted tones are great. Volume is impressive for the size, but nothing you’d setup live.Bluetooth and customizable presets are a huge advantage over the 5, but you give up the portability of battery power without shelling another few hundred.App control adds a couple extra settings, but I honestly don’t use it. It’s a practice amp, sitting a few feet away, and manual changes are just more convenient.Cons:Bass and acoustic tones are not great. Passable for practice, but it’s a little disappointing compared to the great electric tones. If you’re thinking this as a primary bass/acoustic amp, look elsewhere. These seem like an afterthought, and the disparity of sound is why I didn’t give a five star review.Syncing Bluetooth is a little confusing at first since it appears as two devices - one for app and the other for audio stream. I had to figure out which was which.And FYI. You have to hold buttons 4 & 5 to enable Bluetooth.

So, I've had this amp for almost 1.5 years now and still love it. I got it because it was arguably the best sounding practice amp you can get and it definitely lives up to the great reviews it got. About the only thing this one is missing is a switch to toggle between the different modes (like the larger THR30) and the lack of any overdrive/distortion/fuzz effects. I recently got a Proco Rat pedal and it sounds awesome though this.

Nice amp.Easy to use .Nice sound .I bought it because a Yamaha recommended it for use with electric violin since it has a flat option for acoustics.
