Feature:
It has just about any feature you need & you can look them up the specs on the web. I like the modeling, effects, and the ability to control them with the footswitches. Also the tuner output jack so you don't have to have the tuner in your signal chain. This truly a nice guitar-cable-amp rig. You don't have to carry extra effects.

Quality:
Very solid build quality.

Value:
A lot of amp for the money.

Sound:
This sound review is based on my tone interests which are 60's Rock, Blues, Jazz, & County. I've use a Gibson Standard LP, American Telecaster, MIM Standard Stratocaster w/ Kinman AV69 pups, & Ibanez Artcore AM73 & they all sound as good though this amp as they do though my HRD or my 59 Bassman RI. I use the default JC120 clean channel for chords & I have added the footswitch to change the channel for lead boost which is set to Tweed modeling. I add a modest level of reverb & little to no presence. The Tweed modeling tone is easily adjusted to taste with the gain setting. I have also be able to achieve some very convincing Acoustic modeling by adjusting treble/mid/bass levels which is better than the Micro Cube. The Classic or Modern Stack & Rectifier modeling offers some good OD rock tone but not something I would use very often. I give this a (7) because in my opinion an (8) would be like a Fender Tweed Bassman, (9) would be a VOX hand wired AC30 & (10) would be a Dumble. With company like this, my rating is actually intended to be very good.

Overall:
I bought this based on my experience with my Roland Micro Cube. I was looking for a powerful light weight SS amp w/ good tone for hauling around & this amp fits that need very nicely. It won't replace my tube amps but this is the best SS amp I have tried at this price.

Feature:
Nice modeling, about 50 thousand combinations of sounds to play with!

Quality:
Built to last, very sturdy.

Value:
VERY well worth the price, I couldn't believe the difference between it and my starter amp.

Desirability:
Glowing killer blues lights like Kustom would be nice, but this is kind of sexy in it's straight forward "I'm gonna blow some excellent sounds into your knees" attitude. Maybe I should get an amp stand now that I think about it.

Sound:
Sounds *great*. I suck at guitar, and this makes me sound almost, uh, not crappy.

Support:
haven't used their support yet

Feature:
A Roland foot switch is nice switching between the clean and dirty channels. You will need to get on extra so just get it.

Quality:
All Roland gear is first class out of the box.

Value:
At $300 bucks this thing is a steal. I heard Roland may be discontinuing this one. Also the reviews say its got better tone and sound than the 80.

Desirability:
Dripping with sex.

Sound:
I've had about every cube amp they make. They come and go. I thought I'd give this one a try. I could care less about the distortion simulations. I was looking for clean jazz, blues, and maybe some head room for bars and dives. I sat it beside my Fender tube amps for sound comparison and had some guys in the band listen also. To my ears the Blackface setting nails my DRRI. The consensus of opinions was it could even be better sounding. Ran the volume up and it stayed clean way up the meter. Done deal. Its also a heck of a lot easier on the back lugging it around. You can DI out the back to a PA if you need more volume. I plugged in an Alnico Blue 12" in the extension speaker slot for grins. Yo Baby! The effects are not as brilliant as the Boss pedals but they offer something if you are into that. The Reverb and delay is nice sounding.

Ease of Use:
Has more tones available than I know what to do with. I would be nice if the reverb and delay were separate like on the Cube 80. But no big deal really.

Feature:
It would be nice if each effect had a different knob, but that would be mostly unnecessary. And a foot switch would be useful

Quality:
Wow...Mine's been through a lot. I mean, I use it for BASS, and it's a guitar amp. any normal guitar amp would die in weeks from that, but this has lasted for almost a year of bass. The only thing that's ever happened was the plastic ring around theinput jack cracked when I was using it for vocals and our singer yanked the cord to hard. but you can just use one from an ext. speaker spot.

Value:
there are better amps out there, but they're all way outside this price range

Desirability:
It doesn't look like much...Except for the steel grate.

Sound:
This thing sounds awesome, I got it a few years back for my birthday, and hasn't failed me yet. I've used it for guitar, bass, vocals, acoustic guitars, amplifying cds and mp3s, and it's never blown out, or made that annoying cracking noise. The clean channel with the bright switch is pretty cool, but I really only use the superawesome distortion this thing has. Just switch it to "metal", crank up the gain, and you'll be ready to bust out some seriously chunky riffs, or some melodic lead goodness

Ease of Use:
Really easy to use

Support:
never had to deal with'em, and that's the best kind

Overall:
Good sound, amazingly dependable. If mine broke I'd probably see if roland sells the head by itself.

Feature:
It came with one pedal which only controls one effect,it needs a pedal that controls all three--the most useful feature is being able to switch from amp model to another.This amp is built strong and is road worthy

Quality:
This is amp is made like tank and looks great,easy to get from one gig to another is a real road warrior,quality was allright except the handle could be stonger ,if it has weak point it might be here,but iam sure not sweating it.

Value:
It holds its on price and beats some big boys

Desirability:
Its just an amp man

Sound:
it has a strong sound and holds togather when the playing gets hard. It can compete with the big boys in coming through the haze.

Ease of Use:
Great sounds come easy,you can color the sound anyway you like it either hot or smooth and cool and the learning curve if there is one its just learning what makes your sound come alive.The manual is ok

Support:
Have had no problems

Overall:
This amp is a keeper for where it is used it has all that I need for now.I would only look for something only if I was in HUGE place I will add other effects.I compared it with others that cost alot more with the same specs and felt I was paying for the name only

Feature:
Feature loaded for the money..I just use two footswitches for clean/amp model and effects on/off there's a jack for delay/reverb, but I just set this and leave it-no real need for the third switch.

Quality:
Very sturdy..I've had great luck with all their stuff over the years.

Value:
You won't regret this one. Versatile enough and loud enough to do it all--no need to buy pedals with the great amp models and built in effects.

Desirability:
I'm sure once people get on to the new cube, you'll see them everywhere. I don't work for Roland! Thanks for this great amp Roland!

Sound:
I got the micro cube first; great portable amp! The cube 60 does it all! Really loud with great tone and effects. I love the tweed setting..you can get great blues, rock & roll and jazz tones from this one.

Support:
Haven't needed them so no comment here.

Overall:
I can get such a variety of top notch sounds with this amp for any style..it keeps your load light and set up simple without sacrificing sound and versatility.

Feature:
I didn't get any accessories with this amp. The amp also looks kinda smaller in comparison to other combo amps...but definitely packs a mighty punch. Other than that I think it would have been good if you could adjust the effects a little bit more like delay in particular.

Quality:
I think the product looks neat and should definitely surprise people when you turn it on and start playing :P So far Im not sure how it will go gigging but by the tone level i can reach at home without getting buzzing/feedback its usually pretty loud and can manage :)

Value:
Yeh its worth it.

Desirability:
I loved it more so for its tonal quality than looks :P

Sound:
Honestly when i first saw this amp, the size of it made me abit hesitant to get despite it being 60 watts. But regardless the moment i tested it..i absolutely loved the tones. Any metal head who loves their distortion should definitely consider getting this amp (unless your getting a stack). For one, one of the tones is modeled around the Mesa dual rectifier...that tone is my favorite one!!. ALSO you dont even need to turn the volume way up coz it is naturally very loud around the middle level :P Other than that all the tones sound really good...and I can say I chose this amp over a marshall 50 watt combo in regards to tonal qualities :) I might add if your a person who loves using the effect Delay..you might want to consider buying a delay pedal just so you can get the right length and how much delay you want on. Because with this amp you cant really adjust the length of the delay much...just kinda the volume of it... :) still cool sounding amp though

Ease of Use:
This amps great, its versatile and sounds sick. Its quite easy to get a tone you personally like...for a metal head this amp should be a good combo to use coz all you have to do is just switch between the preset tones like switching it to "R-Fier" and yeh add the gain, change some tone setting's like mids,bass and treble and your set :D Also its great for Rock and blues stuff too :)

Support:
I've had no problems, so yeh don't need to answer this.

Overall:
Eventually like after a year or so I will upgrade to a half stack amp. Like I said I chose this amp over a Marshall!, you'd think a Marshall would sound great but honestly this amp kicked its A$$ haha. This is a great combo amp!

Feature:
Didn't come with any accessories, but the modeling deserves a 10.

Quality:
As far as overall quality, this amp is well constructed. Very durable, and the sunken control panel keeps the knobs shielded.

Value:
Simply put, there are better amps out there, but for this price and beyond, nothing compares. The small price tag attached to this amp is its best asset.

Desirability:
Personally, I prefer the more classic look of Marshall amps, but Roland did an alright job on making this look attractive. Just looking at the dimensions (approx 16x17x10 inches) makes this amp seem small and underpowered. Beneath the surface though, this amp packs a punch beyond its size. It is definately much more desirable if you have a chance to play it rather than simply look at it on the internet.

Sound:
The Cube-60 has incredible sound for its price and size, especially the acoustic setting. Even on my shoddy Washburn guitar with stock pickups, the modeling allows me to choose a large variety of sounds. Also, the volume control is very sensitive, and a slight tweaking allows easy equalization for jamming.

Overall:
Overall, this amp is a solid product. If, like me, you are looking to upgrade from a little 15w amp but not get a stack yet, I highly recommend this amp. If you have a few spare minutes, watch the NAMM Booth demo video for this product, it does a good job of presenting this product, albiet in a slightly biased way.

Feature:
Great selection of modeling- better than a POD xt

Quality:
I'm a little concerned about the input jack. I've seen it break in the store.

Sound:
This is the best sounding 60 watt ss combo amp I've found. If you don't have the $$ for a mesa or jc-120, this will tide you over.

Ease of Use:
easy

Support:
They mail parts to you easily.

Overall:
Don't skimp with the Cube 30- Get the 60! 30 extra watts for $100... I bought the 30, loved it- but it was underpowered. This has a presence function that is useful and more outs. The 60 is the next best thing before you have the $ for a Mesa or some amazing $2000 amp.
