The Roland Micro Cube RX Battery Powered Modeling Guitar Amp is small in size and huge on sound! This new battery-operated stereo amp delivers a powerful punch at an affordable price.

Feature:
Cant say enough. If you cant find something you like here than give up.
Quality:
Always top notch from Roland
Desirability:
Total sex. I used it playing out and several pretty girls came up and asked where I got the cute little amp.
Sound:
Sound wise its really really nice. I use it for acoustic guitar with a mc in the mic setting. Also use the same mic for vocals at the same time. I did plug a Strat into it to see what it did. It is amazing. You really get a vast variety of amazing sounds, and loud sounds if you crank it. The drum machine is total fun and useful. It has a volume control which is very nice. If you jam with players that tend to speed up this will keep the group straight. LOL. Tilting the amp back makes a big difference in getting the sound out.
Ease of Use:
Great
Support:
Never had a Roland or Boss product go down.

Feature:
Gain, Volume, Tone. The basics. For this little unit, I don’t think reverb is necessary.
Quality:
It’s made out of plastic, and it’s kinda light. I guess it’d be okay if it were dropped a few times, maybe some small stomping as well…I dunno, I haven’t messed it up yet.
Value:
I got it for $49.99 – it seems like a good deal, if it lasts anyways. I just needed something light and portable to bring to practices.
Desirability:
It’s a nifty little toy, and it makes you want to just go outside on the streets and play. And once I get another cable, I’ll try plugging it into my amp to…will probably make some more gnarly noises.
Sound:
I haven’t used the MS-2, but this one is loud enough. Good enough to fill a room, but you won’t make anyone go deaf. Full, beefy sound, I was actually surprised by the sound it gave.
Overall:
I’m somewhat new to electric guitar…but I think this is a good buy.

The front panel of this amp includes volume, tone, “squeal” overdrive/distortion controls, and a standard 1/4 in. input. The rear panel has a 1/4 in. headphone out jack which allows the user to plug in headphones while switching off the speaker. This jack can also be used as an output for directing low level signal to another amplifier or direct to a recording console. Two inputs (one on the front panel and one in back) are also included.

You’ll love the new HoneyTone(N10) mini amp! This is the definitive small portable amp. Great clean or overdriven vintage sound. This little devil can get louder than most other mini amps.

User Reviews:
Feature:
It came with pretty much nothing except the amp, and a battery. No cables, no nothing.
Quality:
Although it’s made of plastic, it can withstand quite a few drops, but the plastic makes it lightweight so you can put it on your belt.
Value:
Same as the fender tone-master, and does exactly the same thing. But it’s not a name brand, so i give it an 8.
Desirability:
Looks pretty awesome with it’s vintage look.
Sound:
It’s got a pretty awesome sound, the overdrive is awesome, the clean is clean, and the middle of the road has a bit of dirtiness to it, but not overpowering
Overall:
If a fender tone-master isn’t available to you, buy this.

Feature:
The features are ok. I love the tone knob. Go figure.
Quality:
The quality is decent.
Value:
Well that product isnt worth 50$, I got it for 30$ on sale. 30 $ is more reasonable.
Desirability:
The design is verry crappy, it looks good but you tend to find out the fakes and eal on this product.
Sound:
Well I opened it up and I was very dissapointed. Two little 2 inch speakers. I took one out and pushed on it, it doesnt bounce at all. No insulation at all, I added my own and it sounds much better. Also where the battery is held, the cover tends to raddle at a certian volume. Also with headphones it sounds good, depending on the headphones. You should add a specific place for bigger speakers, I took a 140 watt car amp and some speakers and its annoying using the headphone jack. But I love that it is portable. But come on a fake handle. I made modifacations like little round feet at ther bottom so it does not slide and added rubber on the kickstant and now it doesnt slip.
Overall:
Personally its ok, but when I opened it I laughed it didnt know it was so small. I whish things with MINI would be compared to something.
