Salamat sa feedback sir IOS.. Galing ako megamall kanina. Wala pa din sila stock pero sa ibang shop nila meron. Kaso regular thr10 lang meron sila. I was hoping for the thr10x sana.

Now i only have 1 solution is ask my friend from Japan who will be going home this October if she can look and buy me a THR10x dun.. Fingers crossed! Babae pa naman for sure walang alam na musical instrument hehe.

Taga san ba kayo sir IOS? baka pwede parining naman ng live ng THR mo?

I had the 10X for a few weeks, but ultimately decided to sell it. Maybe I just couldn't dial it in properly but to my ears, it sounded nothing like the youtube vids (Satchel, Anderton's,etc). It was really 'fizzy' no matter how I tweaked it, and I tried different guitars (single coil strats, LP with humbuckers) through it. The volume level was also surprisingly inadequate (the youtube vids are I think  mic'ed and eq'ed hence the huge wall of sound from the vids and kinda gives a false representation of it's true volume capabilities).

Though it is marketed as a 'third amp' or practice amp.

My Fender Mustang I 20-watt blew this 10X away imho, WAY louder and better tones (free Fuze software to tweak), and for approx 1/3 the price, the better deal. (albeit it's a solid state combo amp)

Of course ymmv. I'm probably just bad at dialing in the tones  :)

Just my .02 centavos

have to disagree tho, i tried this in a gig, was playing with an acoustic guitar. the tones are just outstanding. granted, i was using it for a low gain type of grit for that warm bluesy tone. ganda lang talaga. siguro depende sa application.

paps, magkano mo nabenta yung THR mo?
hahaha ako binibiyak ko muna yung wetpaks para makita kung may yellow thingy hahahaha

Yeah it probably sounds good with lower gain tones, but to me the high-gain was 'transistory' sounding, 'fizzy' when I had it. I remember the volume to be 'underwhelming'. The youtube vids make it sound so 'huge' but disappointingly lacking in real life when tested. Of course like I said, ymmv. Experience ko lang.

The new THR100 series may be a different story though.

I disagree too. I highly recommend this amp. This is not a high volume / gig amp but more of a bedroom/desktop amp. I love it! and it absolutely sound great! It's also portable, I even bring it along during family outings. Also sound great as a recording tool. Some sample clips I recorded with this amp using acoustic, humbucker electric and single coil strat:

yun mismo. ganun  reaction nung friend ko who tested it with a high gain setting. he went for the Mustang as well. hahaha

and yes, mejo mahina siya due to the speaker size, then again, its a personal amp lang naman. but yeah, the lowgain sounds are just pristine and accurate. swabe hahaha

Grabe 10k ang swerte naman ng friend mo sir! Got my thr10 second hand for 13k.

Mahina talaga ang Volume nito kasi pang bedroom practice talaga sya.  Lalo na pag may pedals ka mas noticable yung Volume drop.  The best pag naka rekta lang sa amp tapos thr editor para ma dial ng maayos yung sound

Sir ryaneth qc ako Fairview area.  Kung malayo ma pwede naman tayo mag meet dala ka lang ng 8 or 10? na AA batteries hehe.

Ang advantage ng regular THR is pwede sya ng acoustic guitar. Magaganda yung acoustic patches nya sa THR editor.

I agree. Siguro medyo na spoil lang yung 'ears' ko sa tube amps . Naging 'mapili' na sila when it comes to tones, they don't like 'fizz'. Once you go black.. oh wait wrong phrase lol. :)

:) hehe yeah he's a good buddy of mine that does me a lot of favors, so I gave him a good deal. Kasama yung Yamaha soft case that was made for it; which was good quality, durable.

One thing to add...

Guys who are on the fence about buying this should also be aware of the battery issue in regards to totally powering off when hitting high volume/high gain when powered ONLY by batteries (hindi naka plug-in). I actually experienced this myself with the THR10X model. Hindi naman ata lahat ng unit ay may defect, pero it's not uncommon din.

Check this thread out:

http://www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/yamaha-thr10-problems-playing-on-battery-power.1077873/

This thread was regarding the THR10 model, pero it's apparently also rampant sa THR10X.

Sorry guys, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to turn people off from buying these units (I love Yamaha products), pero I believe an informed buyer is better served. (I wish someone had told me about it). Personally, this was the other major deal-breaker for me. I bought it because I wanted something very portable to take around, unplugged sa socket. But when I experienced that 'power off' issue', I decided to sell it.. If you keep it plugged in always, it should be no concern. Also hindi ata lahat ng units ay may defect na ganito. Caveat emptor lang sa mga potential buyers.

Btw, my friend whom I sold it to loves it, doesn't care about the issue.

Just sharing my experience with this.

Peace,

MA
