I thought it was a little toy that couldn't provide the tone I needed but considering that it's made by Roland, I tried it and I fell in love with it. pero mas gusto ko pa din ang big brothers niya. 

hahaha, looks are decieving...

actually, the sound that the microcube has is far better than those starter amps ng mga amp makers like, laney,orange, etc.

hahaha thanks mukhang gusto ko na siya!! hahaha I kinda miss the LOW END SPECTURM of the guitar..kaya Im thinking of taking  this..the amp is bundled with a guitar..ayaw niya ibenta ng hindi magkasama eh..Im thinking of getting it nalang and maybe just sell off the guitar..kasi medyo maganda yung price niya..either way..hahaha...

ako naman, ito yung points ko in considering geting the 15xl. (ideally 20xl yung best)

1. price! (super mura @2nd hand price)
2. POWER SQUEEZER!--- I need this as I dont want to disturb the neighbors.
3. Bigger speaker and enclosure for improved Low end signals..
4. Stripped down on board effects...I love the 3 knob EQ...since I use pedals naman..
5. Its still small..and compact...but louder .and I have the option to gig with it in small venues if need be..

don't think. just take it na.  :-D ano pala yung guitar na kasama sa amp?

the things I love about the Cubes are:
1. price (kahit brand new it's still budget friendly).
2. portability. you can bring it anywhere without breaking your spinal cord.
3. durability. cubes are built like a tank.
4. a lot of channels to choose from. my personal favorites are the REC channel and the JC Clean.

hahaha, looks are decieving...

actually, the sound that the microcube has is far better than those starter amps ng mga amp makers like, laney,orange, etc.

oo nga looks are deceiving. I was blown away by the sound that little guy had. maganda talaga pagkagawa ng Roland.

not to overhype it but the REC channel turned a Squier strat into a chugging metal machine.  :-D

hahahaha lalo pag naka Humbuckers..hahaha


actually gusto ko din sana yung cube street eh..I like the enclosure design and pwede mag mic......kaso medyo pricey siya,  for the price pwede ka na makakuha ng decent 20-30 watt amp...hahaha..

Yung next contender ng microcube is yung VOX DA5..kinagusto ko naman dito may Auto Wah setting...hahaha...perono regrets na I got the microcube instead of this..

I saw a Cube Street dati pero I never tried it. it looks like a stretched out Cube. hehehe! and yes, sa price niya bibili nalang siguro ako ng 20xl.  :-D

another Roland amp I want to try is the JC-120. ganda daw ng cleans.

I don't gig naman kasi, kaya it suffices my requirement as an all-around amp.
On board effects are nice, clean channel is OK.  OK din sya for HB and SC pick ups.
The EQ knobs are fine, it does the job well.   :)

The box said "BOSS Effects" built-in... But the metal and the power stack drives do not sound anything close to any BOSS Metal stomps. Bland. You will be better off with a drive pedal.

BUT, i like the clean channel, plus the power squeezer button. This was the Roland Cube 15X that I had.  :)

Given the chance to own one again? I'd go for the Microcube for portability and cuteness. LOL.
