Re: roland cube 30

It is Superb the sounds are brilliant and the Fxs are pretty decent and it is worth more than its retail value. In the U.K Total Guitar gave it 5/5 and What guitar gave it 10 for performance and 10 for value the only one they given i think and I think guitarist gave it the gold award 5 Stars
 
Re: roland cube 30

The British press loves the amp. I haven't heard it, tho. I admit that I know very little about combo amps!!
 
Re: roland cube 30

I couldn't make it sound good in the brief time I tried it at the store. The distortion was harsh solid state. I'm not an expert on tweaking amps, but I didn't really like the layout either. Trying to do too much with too few knobs. When I tried the Peavey Classic 30, I got a good sound right away.

I hear ya. I'm thinking about getting this Nano Head from Zvex. It's a 1/2 watt all tube amp about the size of a pedal. You can get tube distortion at low volume. It's about $400 and you need a cab because it's a head. Take a look at this guy playing one. It's the extra Zvex Nano head and AC/RC.

Talk about pedal envy!!!!!
yeah i was looking at the nano head, but i don't think it's really worth it after customs and taxes.

I think these guys are Canadian, not that I would hold it against them.

The valvetronix suits my needs for low volume playing, but I really want tube sound at low volumes. There's store near me that stocks them. I'm going to give it a try this week end. Just another little expense, right? Then I need a good cabinet, too. It never ends.

Enjoy your Peavey.
