THR10II
- [ ] (Power Button) / Power Button LED
This is the unit's power button.
When the power is ON, the Power Button LED, the lamp corresponding to the selected amp type and the Power Lamp in the speaker cabinet light up. - LED Display
Indicates each of the THR-II's settings and conditions. - [TAP/TUNER] button

- [AMP] knob
Selects the amp type. The lamp for the corresponding amp type lights.
* When the power is turned ON, the most recent amp type is selected.
- Tips on Creating Sound
Using the [GAIN] knob and [MASTER] knob in combination gives you broad control over the sound for each amp type, except ACO and FLAT. Setting the [GAIN] knob and [MASTER] knob adjusts the amount of preamp and power amp saturation. Once you have the desired sound, use the [GUITAR] knob!3 to set the overall volume of the guitar sound.
- [AMP] switch (THR30II Wireless only)
Selects the amp mode. Selects the amp modeling by combination of amp mode and amp type. The [AMP] knob lamp lights for the corresponding amp mode color.
For further details of amp modeling settings that can be selected by combining the amp mode and amp type, refer to the Amp Modeling List - [GAIN] knob
Adjusts the amount of preamp gain. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the amount of gain.
* When ACO is selected with the [AMP] knob , the modeled sound is a mixture of the front-mic'd sound and pickup sound of an acoustic electric guitar. (Minimum setting produces the direct pickup sound only. Maximum setting produces the mic sound only.) - [MASTER] knob
Adjusts the volume for the guitar sound. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the volume and create power amp distortion and change in the low-range frequency.
* When BASS, ACO or FLAT is selected with the [AMP] knob , this only adjusts the volume. - [BASS] knob
Tone adjustment for the guitar's sound. Turn the knob clockwise to enhance the low-range frequencies. - [MIDDLE] knob
Tone adjustment for the guitar's sound. Turn the knob clockwise to enhance the mid-range frequencies. - [TREBLE] knob
Tone adjustment for the guitar's sound. Turn the knob clockwise to enhance the high-range frequencies. - [EFFECT] knob
Selects one of four different effects: CHORUS, FLANGER, PHASER, or TREMOLO. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the amount of each effect.
* Turn the knob fully counterclockwise to set the effect OFF. - [ECHO /REV] knob
Selects one of four different effects: ECHO (tape echo), ECHO/REV (tape echo/reverb), SPRING (spring reverb), and HALL (hall reverb).
Turn the knob clockwise to increase the amount of each effect.
*Turn the knob fully counterclockwise to set the effect OFF.
*When ECHO or ECHO/REV is selected, the [TAP/TUNER] button can be used to set the delay time. - [GUITAR] knob
Adjusts the overall volume of the guitar sound.
*This knob's setting has no effect on the signal sent to the [USB] jack .
*The volume output to the [LINE OUT] [L] [R] jack (THR30II Wireless only) is constant regardless of the setting of the [GUI-TAR] knob. - [AUDIO] knob
Adjusts the audio playback volume for audio from the computer connected to the [USB] jack , an audio device connected to the [AUX] jack , or a smart device connected by Bluetooth - [INPUT] jack

Amp Modeling List
Mode | Amp Type | Description |
Classic | Clean | A low-gain preamp for sparkling American-style cleans, with 6L6 tubes in the output stage for brightness and a strong midrange. |
Crunch | EL84 power tubes in a true Class-A configuration with a highly responsive EQ for rich, complex harmonic tones and warm overdrive. Inspired by British chime. |
Lead | A low-gain preamp with an EL34-based power section that breaks into classic British overdrive as the master volume is pushed. |
Hi Gain | Powerful modern distortion that fills out as the high-gain preamp is pushed. Tread carefully after 12 o'clock. |
Special | 12AX7 and 6L6 tubes in pursuit of the "Brown" sound. Set the gain around 11 o'clock for classic rock crunch, or crank it for saturated rhythm tones. |
Bass | Woody, vintage tone with late breakup. |
Acoustic | Designed for acoustic-electric guitar, modeling the response of a boutique condenser microphone. |
Flat | A neutral tone with no amp or speaker modeling. Great for connecting other instruments to your THR. |
Boutique | Clean | A low-watt EL34 design. Turning up the preamp gain will thicken up the cleans, then push into bluesy overdrive. |
Crunch | A deceptively simple amp circuit with just a single 12AX7 and EL84. A full, no-frills tone that is highly responsive to picking dynamics. |
Lead | A version of the Classic/Lead circuit, modified for extra gain with a darker tone and scooped mids. |
Hi Gain | ECC83s into 6L6s for high gain with a highly responsive EQ, inspired by German engineering. |
Special | Four 12AX7 preamp tubes into 6L6 output tubes. Tight, fast tracking for crushing highgain. |
Bass | Full, modern tone that breaks into a fuzz-like overdrive when pushed hard. |
Acoustic | Designed for acoustic-electric guitar, modeling the response of a boutique tube microphone. |
Flat | A neutral tone with no amp or speaker modeling, and a slight bass boost. Great for connecting other instruments to your THR. |
Modern | Clean | A boutique, low-watt EL84 design that adds fullness and sustain as the master volume is turned up. A great match for neck pickups. |
Crunch | A mid-volume boutique design with 6550 power tubes. Listen for tight bass response and a singing sustain. |
Lead | A high-gain design with 12AX7s into EL34s, for the tone that defined 1980s hard rock and heavy metal. |
Hi Gain | A boosted version of the Classic/Special amp, with even more gain for aggressive rhythms or searing leads. |
Special | A classic overdrive circuit before the preamp tightens low-frequency response and provides even more gain. Ideal for extended-range guitars. |
Bass | Vintage voicing with early breakup for overdrive that works well with bass or guitar. |
Acoustic | Designed for acoustic-electric guitar, modeling the response of a boutique dynamic microphone. |
Flat | A neutral tone with no amp or speaker modeling, and a slight mid scoop. Great for connecting other instruments to your THR. |
