Roland Cube 15

[Bach5G]

I got to play through a Cube 15 this morning and was pleasantly surprised.

The music school has a pretty motley collection of guitar amps. There’s a Fender Tonemaster that’s kept on stage, a JC 20 (not bad but a bit underpowered) a Fender B Jr. that needs some work (a bad buzz), an old Garnet tube amp that’s seen better days (donated for a tax receipt, I expect), and a Razors Edge/ZT Lunchbox (also donated for a tax receipt).

We’re in a medium sized room: bass, drums, 2 keyboards, 2 guitars, and 4 or 5 horns. I thought the Cube held up pretty well and still sounded pretty good. I’ve got to say it took zero time to dial in a decent tone.

The Cubes are good amps. The higher-end one are great amps. I've been gigging with a Roland Blues Cube Artist for several years now. Light, sounds great at ANY volume, loud enough for any gig- but still sounds great turned down as well.

And I own some nice tube amps- Bad Cat, Swart, Supro...
