A new take on classic tone
The little brother of the THR10, the THR5 offers the sound quality of the THR10 in a more portable form, making it perfect for use at home or when traveling.
Now the THR5 has been upgraded version 2, with an even better sound that defies the convention that sound quality has to be sacrificed in a small amp with a small sound.
THR5 offers five amp types
CLEAN
Rich clean tones from a 6L6 power section with early breakup for incredible jazz, blues and country sounds.
CRUNCH
Low-powered EL84 class-A tube output with bright, clear, dynamic power amp distortion characteristics.
LEAD
Low-gain preamp section and EL34 power section for rich, controllable distortion with great midrange definition.
BRIT HI
EL34s keep the classic British clarity while a higher gain preamp allows you to push the amp into serious distortion.
MODERN
Ultra high-gain input section combined with 6L6 output section delivers smooth, powerful distortion
BASS
High-power all-tube design for dynamic, driving bass tone.
*THR10 only
ACO
Electric-acoustic optimized input with mic simulations for natural, clear tone.

VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling)
VCM effects are capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, going beyond simple simulation and delivering the truly musical performance that makes classic analog gear invaluable even in today's digital production environment.
