I had it since 3 years ago and only now I'm realizing how pretty is this little amp. Thanks!!!
I'm actually quite impressed. I wasn't expecting this to amount to anything more than a cheap digital amp, but upon hearing it I can tell that Roland has done a lot to try and make that thing sound smooth and tubey, especially when cranked up. It sounds a bit boxy, but for its size I say it sounds great.
@grand master flash Shirley you can't be serious.
@grand master flash I played it in a guitar center and it sounded great to me. Especially the extreme setting.
That traditional Chapman guitar is a beautiful sight to behold!
I got my Cube 40XL because of Chappers' demo, and this sounds just as good. Cubes are simply the best practice amps, bar none.
I own 4 cubes ; a micro cube, a 20, a 40 and an 80 watts that I use according to the situation. They are not the most"glamourous" amps on earth BUT they always do the job. For example just try the "acoustic" preset with an electro acoustic guitar it's just amazing and makes you wonder why you spent so much money on a(said) specialized acoustic guitar amp!Not to mention the clear and crunch sounds really easy to integrate in a band or a mix. Remember Chappers' blind test with a "hidden" Roland Cube head. Don't trust just your eyes, trust your ears first!
Hi, Hervé. Since you got 4 cubes from Roland, I'd like to make you a question. I'd be really much glad if you can help me. I'm in doubt of buying a Roland Cube 10GX or a Roland Cube 20GX. I did'nt find them on stores in my citie, so I can not test the sound and functions by my self. I've been waching reviews on internet but I still got some questions. I'm gonna use the amp for mainly for praticing guitar. I don't intend to do presentations or rehearsings with this amp, so potension it is not a big issue for me. So the firt question woud be:
1. Do you test the 10GX your self? Is the quality sound equivalent with the 20GX?
2. As far as I could understand, the lead amp simulation on the 20GX is the same on the 10GX. If that is correct, the 10GX has the lead amp, crush and clean, plus 7 more on the app, and one for acoust guitar and one for bass; while the 20GX has just the JC Clean and the Lead. How ever, the 20GX has Delay and Reverb separeted knobs plus one knob with more 5 effects. I don't know what to pic. The 13 amps simulation oon the GX or the amps effects on the 20GX. What would you chose?
I'll be very thankfull if you can hep me with your oppinion. Best regards!
Acoustic amps have tweeters. Also u usually can connect ur mic , so 2 separate channels do the songwriter job for you. I have a Fishman Mini. And a Cube 15 - they are for different purposes
@@alexandrelinsdossantos5604 i own an 80xl, the bigger the better TRUST, i first started with the cube 30 then sold it,(stoped playing for awhile) fell in love with ģuitar again and nothing else was really cutting the versatility like the cube, so I got the 80XL
@@veilsideFD3S , Thanks for the tip. I ended up picking a Katana 50 and I'm very happy with that. I mostly use for studies. Though is a 50W amp, you can change to 0,5W with no loss of quality. For the ones who are in doubt about good amps with low prices, Boss Katana 50 is a good go.
@@alexandrelinsdossantos5604 enjoy!
I have a bunch of Microcubes and I have to say the BASS RX is one of my favourites amps ever. It's a tiny, battery powered amp but it's very flexible and sounds really good.
Genius, Roland has brought back the modem!
Can't go wrong with Roland amps man! Super sturdy little machines!!!!! Great review!
That amp sounds phenomenal! I have a Line 6 Spider which is practically as useful as plugging my guitar into a vegetable by now. So many great practice amps out there now!
Holy crap that ML-3 looks incredible. I genuinely needed to take a moment and compose myself when Rob picked it up. Wow...
15:15, I was like "Eruption, Eruption, Eruption, Eruption, Eruption, Eruption, Erup...aaaaaaawwww fuck."
I watched this vid a while back. I thought maybe but perhaps one of the bigger models. Maybe the 80gx. Well after watching most of the 80GX vids & finding them lacking I come back to this. You vid here has about the best sound of any Cube demo there is.
wow, Chappers is sick on the guitar. amazing skills.
15:16 thought eruption was gonna start
know that feeling man!
Yep, that's a vindaloo, for you. Great sounding little amp though £95.00, got to be a winner.
"Somebody's gonna learn that lick!" Oh man, that actually made me really laugh!
Man I love these little amps. Rarely play live so for home recording they are a kick to mess with.
I'm always looking for the clean sound ...
You would be hard pressed to find better for £95 + that application for the phone is free.... so you are getting a lot of different amps for your money. Also I think the effects actually sound quite tasteful and usable!
The change is a little annoying but if you find 3 amp sounds that work together well, then you won't be trying to change them every single time you sit down to practise anyway. Nice review guys :)
Blackstar ID Core looks decent, this Cube seems upgrade from their new line that only used Iphone App and you could use android only as backing tracks. On other hand Roland seems to add features in rest of new Cube GX only for Iphone users while raising price with rest of functionality being same.
What are your 3 amp sounds ?
Chappers, your finally playing that clean sound real good, not like two years ago.
What an improvement! Now teach the Capn. how to not keep playing the some noodle! Your guitars are awesome!
I got a Roland Amp and they have awesome clear tones! Love my modulars i plug into them!
Roland Cubes are the best practise amps in my opinion.

ok i was very dismissive until you actually started playing.......
its sounds amazing.
actually one of the best sounding amp demos ive heard, including all the big valve jobbies.
The distortion I get out of this thing is insane. Perfect Metallica tone.
I still have the Micro Cube from back in like 2002 or whenever my dad gifted it to me on Xmas one year. I just plugged it in for the first time in decades and wow it still sounds great. I was shocked. And I love that it is battery powered, because I like to go practice outside when the weather is right. It doesn’t seem like these newer ones come battery powered, which I understand due to their size. It’s a nice feature to have though!
What a great guitar player and a fine amp, hard to beat for the money.
MAN I can't wait for the ML3 Moderns to get to our shop. So excited!
You're correct in saying it does not have batteries but It has a 5.7v input. What I do is take a Ryobi flashlight, gut the lens and bulb and attach a two seater, 12v cigarette lighter adapter into the vacated space, which will hold a DC/DC converter which has a polarity switch and 3v to 12v stepped output. This Roland amp works grand off the 6v setting. I use the 18v Li-Ion Ryobi battery and with a OneSpot daisy chain can run my small, street pedal board and this amp for hours.(I don't know how long it will last because i've never ran out of juice!) I almost run into Ryobi equipment on every garage sale jaunt I take, But even at brand new prices a $100 will get you set, and I use the converted flashlight for a myriad of power needs.
Rob has anyone ever told you that your headstock is perfect? It seriously works with anything.
This does work with Android devices, thank fuck! I'm sick of seeing products that only target Apple users.
I got the Vox Pathfinder and I love it. But the multiple amp sounds you can load on this make it really interesting.
Kingstapper! Thanks for the response. I talked to luthier yesterday. Chappers said we are coil TAPPING, which is NOT the same as coil SPLITTING. and yes you can TAP a single coil for a "twangier" tone.
I got a MG15, ages ago as my the very first amp, still have it, works just fine, nice full tone.
Love how those pickups clean up....
This IS a great sounding Buskers amp!!! Note: Do this at your own risk. May void warranty. Checkout 9V input on the back - get 12V 7AH gel battery + Xtend 4A charger: battery can power 12V guitar pedals + 12 V LED lights. Use 12 to 9 Volt converter to power the amp. Euro Rockers do this all the time. This amp can rock the streets!!! Setup of a guitarist I know who busks Euro streets / festivals / rock concerts making 250 to 1000 Euros / street gig. Get out and Busk!!! Rock the World!!
Roland literally make a model for busking, its called the Micro cube lol. It has battery slots
Thanks guys for the great (comprehensive) review - appreciate your efforts very much!
am i the only one that is most interested in clean tone? :/
no
yes coz that thing have amazing drive chanel for the size and money
I’ve noticed a lot of tube guys seem to only care about driven tone… but people who like solid states like them for their cleans.
I really like Rob with this sound from the Cube a lot better than with his Silverback hahaha, maybe I just don't like that amp over youtube idk, but this sounds freaking awesome for a little amp like this
Nice to see some cheaper amps, what most people would actually buy :)
That Chapman natural Tele is fucking lovely
I was looking at the Yamaha THR10 until I saw this. Great demo and great tones.
Very cool!!!! same concept as amplifi without the full range speakers, but for 95 squids.. can't go wrong...
Best one word description for that sound is "BIG"
This was an exciting review to see! First time I saw you guys you did de practice amp shootout with the cube xl and others, and thanks to you I got my cube! :D
So far I like the tone of the Blackstar ID Core 10 better as a practice amp with good tones, though I suppose I only ever use bright clean and super crunch mode on it. The delay on this, however, is expertly voiced.
R.I.P. Camera @15:31, you will be surely miss. Nice amp btw, looks like this will fit my bedroom practice needs. Thanks Cap10 and Chappers!
Rob, you and the Captain should do a video about setting up for recording, gigging and such. Where to place your microphone, at what volume should you play, and the hole thingy.
Love it when you guys demo cheaper gear like this. Shows what's possible for those of us on a limited budget (though it has to be acknowledged that most of the tone comes from Chappers' hands). That being said, where the heck is the Mesa Cab Clone re-do?
Great sounding little amp. Thanks for reviewing it.
1:23 haha cheeky little presentation
I use a Roland Micro Cube GX to busk with, amazing little amp!
I really like Chapman's jamming in this video.
got a cube 40 gx yesterday ...and I had full intention on getting a fender champion ...but was blown away by the cube ...I worry about its longevity .....but we will see ...cool amp
greetings mateys from the land down under !!
+Michael Seymour how loud is this 40gx amp? i plan on getting one for metal.
for a metal band ...I cant say with 100% certainty that it would keep up ...but depending on how loud your drummer is -I think it MIGHT ..then again ..I don't play metal (but have ) so I cant say -but it would not be DROWNED right out - if I had to guess ...I would say go for it ! ...and you can always mic it up -plenty loud enough as a monitor for yourself I would say ....especially if you get a stand for you amp and keep it near you head !! cheers
Wonderful piece of kit and 95 quid is a steal.
currently at uni and this would be great for me, got to grab one of these for myself

That's actually quite an impressive little devil. Maybe I should get one for my little home studio? I think my neighbors would be thankful. :D
IT IS ON ANDROID
You guys should review the Yamaha THR10 series. I have one, myself and I feel that you couldn't ask for a better multi-purpose amplifier for the price. The world must know of this.
So it's basically the same as Micro Cube with less effects and no battery option?
Yeah, the smartphone thing is kind of cool. I noticed it has some amp models that the Micro Cube doesn't have. But if that's it, I don't really see the point with this amp. I mean, it's still a practice amp but without a battery option which makes it less portable than Micro Cube. I don't know about the sound but would expect them to sound pretty similar.
Another great review. Thanks guys
Can't wait for my traditional ml-3 to come in november! They look stunning
That is a great little amp and love that Tele!
I've been playing Fender amps (tube & electronic) for 41 years and I finally gave up on them. Too unreliable ! I'm so glad I finally tried Roland and the quality and reliability is so much better. I think Im going to buy one of these for my grandson.
Awesome. I was surprised by how good it sounded for sure. I may have to give it a look-
Good little amp, Blackstar ID core still the champion of small, cheap, great sounding amps though
Cool sounding little amp. Only the App-Cable-Push-Button thing seems a bit cumbersome. I guess TC electronics patented their TonePrint technology pretty well.
I could use this when busking in the street, but these two blow buttons would never think of that.
Actually, it's not so fair as Rob can make any amp sound great, but I am not convinced, apart for the R'Fier maybe. Sounds are quite nasal, possibly due to the small loudspeaker. Would be interesting to try it with an output on a 12". The VOX VT range and Fender SuperChamp XD or X2 are doing a much better job IMO. Cheers ! \m/
C'mon Captain admit it. Roland have made a magical pixie powered amp. Thats pretty awesome for 95 quid.
The Child in the man...
Killer Axe...World Class Player! 'Cute Amp Eh?
YAAASSS!! I have been looking for something to replace my shitty ass frontman. I am not good enough to justify dropping more than $150.00 for an amp, but I am looking for something with great sound and some effects. I used my friends micro cube a few nights ago, and the sound was amazing. Way too many controls for me at the moment though. If this sounds anything like the micro than this is what I have been looking for.
sounds wonderful
Man this is a great sounding practice amp. Can't wait for payday!
Chapman guitars are such sweet looking instruments but that infinity 12th fret inlay is a real turn off. I would prefer some simple dots, centered or offset of even some gibsony type inlays instead tbh
Yeah that inlay is really out of the place. Would have been better if it has his chapman signature on there.
I'm the opposite I find normal dots boring, the infinity symbol is simple but effective.
It would look best without any fret markers at all \m/
Rob has stated that the inlay on the 12 fret is actually a number "8" to represent octave. The fact that it looks like an infinity symbol is purely accidental.
James Randle I think the word you meant is incidental. Not accidental.
I bought the 20 gx........very happy with it
Interestingly I never ever before recognized Chappers' tattoo.
The Peavey Vypyr VIP series does amp and instrument modeling without having to use an app.
To Rob at 2:23 you said a 10" speaker but it's only a 8" speaker you said that because it's a 10 GX they should have called it a 8GX lol will buy one any way :-) great demo by the way
10 watt.
My performance setup is two practice amps.
15 watt (10 watt speaker) crate amp on top of a Marshall 8010 10 watt.
both solid state. Pretty loud.
What a great recording amp for the money...
Buying that for my Office one day❤️❤️
holy shit i'm gonna get one for homeusing :) it sounds amazing
Impressive little thing.
That outtra had some kick in the low end.
i saw a roland cube used on a keyboard, and it sounded nice.
That is one cool amp
Please remember to change the battery's for next time lol
What an awesome little amp. Nice job guys! :)
Honestly, these guys aren't just promoting cheap stuff for the sake of it. These Cube amps are the best you can get all things considered. People go on about these new 5 watt tube amps but they will be more expensive, heavier, less flexible, less durable and less fun. Sure, there are specialist sound out there you may want...
Great sounding amp. Rolands Cubes have always impressed me. Just a side note, thought of an idea for a video for you guys. Why don't you compare the ML-3 Traditional against a Fender mexican Telecaster because, let's be real that's what it basically is!
The ML3 Modern would look so much more badass if came with the same Blue as the Traditional, by the way great sounding Amp
It's like a modern version of Eric Clapton's little champ fro recording.
That swamp ash tele looks immense!!!
When does it go on sale..........
The new ML3s are leaving the factory any day, so should be in the shops in about 4-5 weeks time. You can pre order from your local Chapman retailer now!
This is going to end in divorce....... lol
***** can't wait!
Great sound BTW!
Please help me choose one between roland micro cube or gx10. I just wanna practicing on my room. Can this two amp play with android?
Hey Rob, what kind of guitar did you use??? Greetings from Germany
The app is available on android too.
ios is like hardley davidson... Android is every other make of motorcycle, and wearing any style of riding gear you like... love being outside that tiny box (".)
Also would be great if u guys compared how the cube sounds compare to others e.g. The cube Marshal stack vs marshall
