Question 1

What's the difference between this model and the wl model that's $150 more?  i can find no info on yamaha website on what wl mean, etc; thanks!

Accepted Answer

The difference is the $150 more wireless version has a rechargeable battery so you can run the THR-II without a power cable for a few hours (maybe up to 8 on a good day I believe).
Additionally you can buy the Line 6 G10 Relay bug. The THR-II Wireless version for $150 has part of this system built in. So you just need the bug that plugs into your guitar. There is no additional part needed to plug into the THR-II Wireless as it's built into the $150 more wireless version since Line 6 and Yamaha are now sort of the same company. Also the bug can be charged by plugging it into the THR-II wireless when not in use.

The $299 non-wireless version does not have the built in battery for use without connection to power, and does not have the Line 6 Relay built into it's input.

Line 6 does sell a G10 Wireless system with the bug + the adapter the plugs into an amp/pedal board. Those are around $150-$250 for the G10/G10S depending on when/where you buy it from as sometimes they are on sale for $30-$50 off.

Question 2

Do you need to use line 6 transmitter, or can you use any bluetooth transmitter?

Accepted Answer

The previous answer saying it is only works with Line 6 transmitters is partially incorrect. You can use any transmitter but you will need a full pair (transmitter and receiver) bypassing one that's built-in. I've been using wireless system Boss WL-20 with no issues and I guess the other similar system will work just fine. I already had Boos wireless and that was exact reason I decided to go with cheaper THR-10II version because I could add my own wireless capabilities and I did not need the built-in battery for autonomous functions.

Question 3

Would this do well as an acoustic amp, as well as an electric?

Accepted Answer

This amp has acoustic modeling but they make an acoustic specific model. Here is the link to that one:
