Authentic Boutique Tone
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.
Setting suggestions
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 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.

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