The Micro Cube is the first Cube amplifier that runs on battery or AC power. Using six "AA" alkaline batteries, you can play for up to 20 hours--thanks to the Micro Cube's high-efficiency amplifier. A carrying strap is also included, allowing you to be heard just about anywhere you want. And the sound? It's a Cube, so you know it sounds great!
7 Classic and Modern Amp Models
Looking for the sound of Roland's JC-120 Jazz Chorus(TM) or your favorite British combo amp? You'll find those and more in the Micro Cube, thanks to seven COSM amp models. Roland's COSM technology is the only modeling method that captures every nuance of the original amps--from the preamp and circuits to the speaker. All you need is the Micro Cube for perfect tone.
High-Quality Effects
There's no need to lug around pedals when the Micro Cube comes with six DSP effects. All the essentials are included--from chorus and flanging to a phaser and tremolo effect. A separate Delay/Reverb processor lets you dial in anything from slapback and long delays to reverb and more (in addition to using one of the aforementioned modulation effects).
New Digital Tuning Fork and More
Tuning up is a snap using the new Digital Tuning Fork. Just press the Tuning Fork button (the harder you hit it the louder the sound) and you get an instant reference tone with support for flat tunings up to two semitones. The Micro Cube also comes with a choice of 1/4-inch and 1/8-inch stereo Auxiliary inputs--great for connecting a CD player or line-level instrument--plus a Recording/Headphones output. Take a Cube anywhere you go!

Roland Micro Cube Amp Customer Review
Feature:
Boss quality effects all in one small package. Plus a record/ headphone out and built in tuner. My favorite thing about this is that its able to run for 20 hours on 6 AA batteries. I can take this thing and rock out anywhere I please.
Quality:
I can probably shoot it with a .45 magnum and itll still work. well not really, but this thing is built like all roland products. Its ready for war.
Value:
I got mine for 100 brand new. Id be willing to pay twice that for this amp.
Desirability:
It looks cool and sounds even cooler. When those guys are playing thier acoustics on the beach, you can roll up and smoke em with a high gain solo.
Sound:
For a 5 inch speaker, one tone knob, and 2 watts, this thing screams. Of course I cannot compare it to my Krank Revolution 1 head because these are two different amps. I play metal/hardcore music and using the rectifier mode I can get nice metal chugs out of this. I gave it a 9 because of the lack of a 3 band EQ.
Support:
Havent had to deal with them. And to me, thats always a good thing.
Overall:
Get em while their hot!

"Great little amp."
Feature:
Runs on batteries, or an A/C adapter (included). I got this to fulfill 2 purposes: 1) small amp I can take with me to rehearsals and lessons (I teach and perform). This is very lightweight. I can carry my guitar in one hand, and this amp and my bag of music, etc. in the other, and the amp and bag o'stuff weighs less than the guitar. 2) monitor for performances. I've got it plugged into the main board, with every thing coming through it, and I've found the different settings give me a different balance with the other elements. The 2nd "clean" setting makes me louder with everything else in the background. I initially tried it on one of the stack settings because those seem to be the loudest. It was pretty nice, but then the acoustic rhythm guitar came in and just about blew me and everyone else in front of the amp out the back wall of the building! I had no idea you could get that much noise out of a 2 watt amp! We tried some other settings and found the clean setting is much better...
Quality:
Very sturdy for a small, light-weight box.
Value:
Does a lot, and makes a lot of noise, for such a small amp. You can get a comparably sized amp for the same price, but none of the others give so many tone options. And this puppy can get loud! And it has a built-in tuner!!
Desirability:
I got it. I'm happy with it. What more can I say?
Sound:
Makes lots of noise for 2 watts. Lots of options, and possible combinations, so you can get an amazing variety of sounds. Hint: Adjusting the gain, and which sound channel you choose, have a huge effect of the potential volume.
Support:
No idea, hope I don't need to find out. Roland seems to be a well-established company, so? Did come with a warrantee card...
Overall:
I wanted a lightweight amp that had plenty of power. This is that and more. It can run on batteries, has a built-in tuner, and great sound and effects options. If I needed to replace this amp, I'd definitely get another like it. I have a 200-watt amp. Plenty of power, but too big and heavy to carry around on a daily basis. This Micro Cube takes care of my need for a good quality light-weight amp.
