![]() ![]() ![]() It's also very sensitive to your guitar's volume setting (which is a good thing!), and you can really hear all the different layers of gain kick in just from messing with your guitar's volume alone.Īpart from the modeling, it also has AMAZING effects, ones that are only rivaled by the Fender Mustang ones. ![]() This is crucial for getting all those "in-between" Marshall tones-especially the mid-gain ones-that other modelers seem to have a hard time with. It's one of the very few practice amps that actually models preamp gain AND poweramp gain, with separate controls for each. One thing you have to realize about the THR10-the way the controls are setup, and the way the gain is structured inside means that you really have to set the controls up right to get the tone you want. There are two Marshall-esque models, LEAD (for the old Superlead/JTM45 tones) and the BRIT HI (for the hot-rodded Plexi tones up through the JCM800) and they are marvelous ) The Mesa model is pretty good too! It absolutely excels at Marshall and Mesa tones, above all else. Somebody stole my Roland Microcube a while back and I'm kinda glad they did, because if they hadn't, I wouldn't have gone to the music stores to see what newer stuff was out there ) I couldn't be happier with mine. In my opinion, it's the best practice amp out there right now. I must have played every practice amp under the sun until I found this one. So, can you guys help me make my decision? The Roland Cube 20GX is also 10% cheaper. A VOX VT20+ is 10% cheaper than the THR10. The Mustang I v2 is 30% cheaper than the THR10. Here is how they compare regarding price around here : ![]() I can test the THR10 and the Rolands, but not the Vypyr.Īlso, i forgot, i could also get the Fender Mustang. Please do notice that i am from Brazil, so sometimes it's not so easy to test out every amp ever around here. What do you guys think i should get for the best Oasis tone, and sometimes a bit of blues? 99% of my playing will be in my bedroom alone, but sometimes maybe i'll take my guitars to my girlfriend's place, so it would help to have the portability of the THR10. I was going to get a Zoom g5 and some amp, but i fell in love with the THR10. I wanna buy my first amp (i play thru my computer using Amplitube). If you like it, go for it, nothing wrong with them if you like it.I have a Cort Source semi hollow and a Cort MR710F dread (also an Yamaha Pacifica 212 strat), and i 90% of what i play is Oasis. They are definitely great deals used and I see them on sale all the time. I played a couple of the Korean ones and they played absolutely great for the price point, I think it was like $700 and it played like a much more expensive guitar. However this is entirely my opinion, some guys totally are fine with that. I'm not a huge fan of all the ones I have looked at mainly because a lot of them have reverse headstocks which I'm not a huge fan of. Now that you mention Ibanez, I plugged in an RG652 into my THR once and it was great, the humbuckers were very high output though so I had to turn the gain way down (like barely up) or else it would break up way too much and be really harsh sounding.Ĭhapman guitars are solid. Same deal if you use the Brit mode and go to low to medium gain, its an excellent sound. For clean sounds with a bit of the flanger effect, its awesome. Yeah, it sounds really great with a Strat from my experience. a lot can change depending on the pickups. Just experiment a lot with the gain/volume controls. My Les Paul has medium output humbuckers and I can turn the gain up a fair amount before it gets too distorted/overdriven. You need way less gain with this amp depending on the pickups. What I have learned with the amp though is that if you're using anything with high output pickups. I haven't tested anything with active pickups myself. It was good enough that I actually got around to buying a Tele because I loved how it sounded. I tried a Tele through it as well and it was again, totally different and how I was hoping it would be. The effects also sound distinctively different with each pickup. My Les Paul and Strat both sound totally different and respond really well (for the volume level) through the amp. The Yamaha sounds distinctively different with every guitar I've plugged into it. ![]()
