Gotta say this unit is UNIQUE, the way it models microphone's for Acoustic play is really 2nd to none. Along with true Mic modeling that is pretty true to the microphones emulated, it also has a great selection of other features like delay, reverb and compression and chorus. I have purchased other "portable amps" for acoustic play. They had larger speakers and might have been a little louder but there they lacked the ability to enhance the tone, they were just louder. Some I purchased for much more money, but wound up in a sound test within 5 minutes returning them. For a portable unit that really gives you the best acoustic modeling and tone, this unit cannot be beat, especially for its size.

It's not only for acoustics -- I use the THR5A as a home/practice amp for my electric guitar. Since I play only in a jazz style and hate overdrive distortion, the amp works really well. I don't use the recommended "EG Clean" setting; I use the "Condenser Mic" setting, which gives just the right tone for jazz guitar by helping to preserve the acoustic sonorities of my archtop while at the same time amplifying them. And when I play with a Stratocaster it gives roughly the same effect, creating the illusion that the Strat is a hollow-body -- great for guitaring with headphones while others are sleeping. (When you set it to "EG Clean" the "Blend" knob becomes a gain knob, so you can get a bit of overdrive that way. Works okay; I simply don't play in that style.) The Hall Reverb is excellent (though you don't get the variability you'd get with a pedal), and the Compression and Chorus effects are serviceable. I don't use the Delay, but it works well enough. Portability is another boon. I use it with rechargeable AA batteries and carry it to wherever I can find some peace in the house. My only complaint is that when I put the amp on the wood floor and play with a backing track, it sometimes distorts (perhaps with feedback from the floor vibrations?). Generally, you can't expect great sound from this amp at high volume. But then that's not what it's for. If you're looking for a case, try the Neewer Large Size SLR DSLR Camera and Video Bag with Shoulder Strap. Perfect fit, and much cheaper than the Yamaha case.

Fun little amp, sounds great, lots of settings. You can save money on a case for it by buying "Ultimaxxβs Professional Dynamic Large Soft Padded Camera Equipment Bag" on Amazon for under $20, fit is perfect and it is under $20.

Remember this is 5 watts. However, its a very clean, sound isn't distorted, it's easy to transport, it has built in features like reverb, chorus etc. that do not require you to carry pedals. Its a parlor practice amp that will allow you to busk on the corner if necessary with it battery power feature. If you have AC power nearby it will work there too. Having it plugged in will not charge your batteries. It's great for travel, in the park, or assisting your writing music. You can also play mp3 music through it with the aux out. If you need to practice in silence use the headphone jack or send music out to a mixer in a bigger environment.

Impressive little box. I was worried that the 5W the acoustic guitar version I got is not enough and I am happy to say that I was wrong! It sounds good and is a great option as a room training amp. The DSP features provide all the effects you would need and the speakers are handling it nicely. If you need to play on stage you can use the one out and take advantage of all the effects the cute box provides.

This thing has a prized vintage look, made a powerful music organ out of my little ukulele. I'm still to learn the ropes and its all possibilities, but sounds great already.

I'm using this primarily for ukulele. And wow *THIS* is it. I'd tried a few before arriving at this little gem of an amp. What I was looking for was a decent acoustic practice amp for home or small groups that was portable and could take batteries. I tried the Blackstar Fly3 but it was just not as clean sounding - I could get close just using my electric guitar Vox 10 amp if I tweaked the settings enough. So I came across the THR series of amps and decided to give the THR10C a try which is geared towards Jazz thinking the cleaner output would lend itself well to nylon. It's a really nice amp but still too electric sounding. That's when I discovered they made a acoustic specific amp, this THR5A. Not only does it have a "nylon" specific setting (which I actually do not play in all of the time), but it has mic models rather than amp models. There is a mixer that blends straight pickup with the mic model. And if you wanna get a little funky, it also has some reverb and hall effect. The compression effect is great to tighten up the sound on strumming so it sounds cleaner. The big thing missing from its THR10 cousins is the ability to memorize settings but I'm ok with that. Also, I understand that the THR5 series puts out the same power as the THR10 series which I was afraid coming from the 10C I would give up some volume but not the case. Definitely consider the case from Yamaha made for this series of amps. It was designed to fit the longer THR10 series but the extra space with the THR5A just gives you more room for gear. Also grab 2 sets of 8x AA batteries. A single set of 8x AA lasts quite a while actually but its always nice to have a backup because charging them can take a while. I use Eneloop as recommended but I use those batteries for everything anyway (beware of defects being sold on ebay for cheap). Why the missing star? On BOTH my 10C which I returned for the 5A, NEITHER included this Cubase AI recording software DVD ROM. I thought maybe it was a download but the only thing on the Yamaha site was the editor software (to edit models) and USB drivers.
