Authentic Boutique Tone

THR10C

THR10C

This is more than a sound– It’s a feeling…

THR10C takes the personal-amp concept to a new level of audio fidelity. The finest tube amps respond to a 
player’s every touch – with picking dynamics and playing style adding as much to the tone as your guitar and 
pickups. Using Yamaha’s exclusive VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modelling) technology, THR10C perfectly recreates 
the unmistakable response and dynamics that only a boutique tube combo can provide.

High-end, hand-wired 
tone at your fingertips

l

 DELUXE

Twin 6V6 power tubes and a low-gain 12AX7 preamp section 
start breaking up only when pushed to the maximum. This is 
warm, clean heaven.

l

 BRIT BLUES

Twin KT66 output tubes break up early. Turn it up with hum-
buckers for the ultimate mid-60s blues rock tone.

l

 CLASS A

True Class A configuration from 4 EL84s combined with unique, 
ultra-interactive EQ gives rich, smooth harmonics and versatile, 
musical tone. For something really special, drive the power sec-
tion harder than the preamp.

l

 MINI

The definition of simplicity – 1 EL84 and 1 12AX7. We added EQ 
for more flexibility but leave everything at 12 o’clock to find out 
what your guitar really sounds like…

l

 US BLUES

Twin EL84s and solid-state rectification give this low-power, low-gain 
combo a combination of clarity, dynamics and response that sings. 
Drop the midrange with single-coils for silky clean blues tones.
