5.0 out of 5 stars Value For Money, November 25, 2005

By 

Lord of Karma "Ken" (Singapore) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Roland MicroCube Blk Portable Guitar Amplifier

I've had the Cube for 2 and a half months now. It offers a wide range of effects, sufficient amplification for home practice, and...a wide of effects. The effects are really what this product is all about. What it lacks in power, it punches you in the face with various sound distortions. Acoustic, Heavy Metal, all these sounds are packed into this Cube.

Best of all, it's small and portable! Like the vast majority, I am constrained by budget (who isn't! :P). While no professional guitarist needs this, I consider it a good buy for most of us part-timers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievable Sound for a 2 watt amp!, April 29, 2008

By 

AJT (Sugar Land, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Roland MicroCube Blk Portable Guitar Amplifier

An old practice amp I had finally petered out after many years of use so I was in the market for another one. I was looking for something compact and cheap yet of fairly good quality and was recommended the Roland Microcube one day while browsing in a Guitar Center. First off I was amazed at the kind of sound that you could get out of this 2 watt amp! Plus the portability of it is unmatched. It also runs on batteries which was a pleasant surprise! The effects that are bundled into this little practice amp is another added plus! Just for the effects alone I would have plopped down the money!

I have a Fender Stratocaster that sounded so good once I plugged it in and an Ovation Acoustic Electric which sounded crisp and clean as well! So if you're looking for a nice practice amp that won't break the pocketbook you can't get any better than this IMHO.

You Tube this amp and see what I mean. This amp is a lot of fun and great value for the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift for Marines or Soldiers, January 18, 2007

This review is from: Roland MicroCube Blk Portable Guitar Amplifier

This was a gift for our US Marine Corp son who was looking for big sound, a small footprint, and portability. The Roland Cube certainly exceeded his expectations. It's perfect for the barracks and will go with him on his next deployement.
