  • Yamaha THR5A Acoustic Modeling Amp

    I was looking for a high quality amplifier for my electric cello that sounded as natural as possible, was lightweight, and had little or no tonal coloring. My Fishman loudbox 100 (similar to the loudbox artist) sounded really good, but was becoming a chore to cart back and forth to practices, and its power wasn't needed in a medium sized room. This THR5A only weighs 4.4 lbs! After experimenting with the settings (microphone type, effects, reverb), I found a setting that produced a very pleasing sound. While the 3.3" speakers are tiny, and don't move a lot of air for a cello, the volume and quality and tonal transparency were surprisingly effective in a medium sized room. I can get more loudness than I need, especially with the pre-amp in the cello, and I like the reverb on the amp better than the built in reverb in the cello's pre-amp; it sounds very natural. I was expecting a wimpy sound, and was very pleasantly surprised. Added benefits are the built-in tuner, auxiliary input, and the fact that the amp can be battery powered. I also ran some guitars and a ukulele through the amp and they sounded wonderful - transparent and very natural. After listening to some other amps, such as Roland and Peavey, the tonal quality of this amp stands out as much cleaner. This is a 4.4 lb wonder, isn't terribly expensive (used), and it works well with an electric cello - a very tall order!

  • In The Mood

    If your in the mood for a mellow amp, this one works. I love that it's small, battery/AC, has multiple settings...even has a tuner. Great for practice, not sure about using in for a gig. I play ukulele, so you really don't need a lot of volume. In fact, I find that I enjoy it most when I place it a few feet away, facing a wall, with the volume turned up just enough to hear my uke and the amp. Works for me. At $163, the price was right.

  • A Gret Idea!

    It is easy to set up and use. The unit is great for practise and busking with YouTube backing tracks. It's small size and light weight make it perfect for travel. the price was great for what it is- high quality and an excellent value. It sounds great for a transistor amp.

  • Great Little Amp!

    Great little amp! I bought this so I could play my Yamaha NTX700C (nylon-string electric acoustic) with some reverb and delay without having to take out a full rig. Mission Accomplished! That little amp is a great addition to my stable of guitars and amps. Highly recommended.

  • Big sound, little package

    Surprisingly big adjustable sound. Has lots of great features like reverb, gain and others. Room filling sound or just use headphones. Great little amp.

  • Buy one.

    It is a lot of fun packed into a little metal box. I must say, it has great sound plus studio effects that are just fun to mess around with. Sure makes my acoustic guitar sound lovely.

  • Great Sound!

    This amp very accurately reproduces the sound of my acoustic guitar with a Fishman preamp. As well the "Clean" setting is perfect for my Strat. It sounds just like my Deluxe Reverb amp. It's great for a large room, but not a big hall or church.

  • Surprisingly small

    I'd read reviews that said this thing was the size of a lunch box. Didn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. It is amazingly small! But the sound that comes out of this thing is anything but small. I have an SST and a mid-bowl Ovation. This little amp woke both of them up! The SST is like a whole new guitar. The effects are amazing! The Ovation blooms with sound, and oh yes, I plugged my classical nylon stringed Washburn into it and got just as much pleasure out of that. The tube amp setting takes me back to the blues and rock sounds of the 50s. The two microphone settings allow me to work with the Ovation to find just the right sound for each song. All in all, this is worth every penny and more!
