Excellent demo - the Cube 30x is a perfect amp for what it does!
Thanks so much for the support! And well said, that's the best way to describe this amp.
That's the best amp I've ever played on and I've been playing for 30 years
Love my Cube 30x. I use clean, Tweed and Classic Stack almost exclusively, though. If you're beginner/intermediate, a Cube and a MIM Strat or Tele will keep you busy and happy, lots of tones to explore before you find *your* tone and start big spending on valves and pedals.
been using mine for 15 years and never felt the need to get anything else for bedroom playing, very versatile and fun, perfect for a learner
I have had this amp for about 10 years, it's been neglected and collecting dust. This video inspired me to fire it up again.
Haha! Same again! That's why I googled for the amp model to see if it's still valued by guitar players. I thought of giving it away at first, then about selling it if there's still a used market for the cubeX series.. and now I'm more leaning towards maybe keeping it, lol!
The 30X is great. It takes pedals pretty well, especially on the JC Clean that simulates the Roland JC-120 Chorus amp that is still famous for its capacities at handling pedals. I use a Boss hardcore on the Brit stack sim and crank the gain. It's hard Metal & really loud!
I also pass it along to my mom who plays her Roland Keyboard (a guitar amp isn't supposed to work with keyboards bc of limited frequencies range), but it works very well. The piano stays clean. Surprise. I've ordered an Alesis edrum kit (frequency range is even larger on drums than keyboards) and I'm going to test the frequencies limits and see what I get. I'm guessing that it'll work ok for home stuff. Not a studio amp by any stretch of the imagination, but a sturdy, reliable and decent practice amp.
Le son dyna amp, une tuerie, il reagit selon l'attaque du jeu, formidable
Great demo!
I absolutely love my Cube 30X!
I got one used a few days ago and i gotta say, as the first sirious amp i own, this thing is really impressive. Also the amp has a really good chunky distorted (almost fuzzy) tone when on high gain.
Great demo
I got my Cube 60 new when they came out. I love it. Very loud for its size. Would be massive rigged up to another 60w cab.
Hi! Thank you for your cool review ! I'd like to know with
the brit combo sound, is it possible to keep it clean (in order to add after some pedals), because i already have a micro cube gx and i really like this sound but on other reviews of your amp, the brit combo sound seamed to be very distorted very quickly ?
I don't know if this is much of a tip, but another thing the manual for these Cubes mentions is that when the EQ knobs are turned all the way down on the Fender models, the amp makes no sound. I saw a guy in another video turn the treble and mid knobs all the way down and turn bass almost all the way up on the Tweed ('59 Bassman 4×10) model and get a decent bass amp sound. I don't know what it sounds like doing that with the Black Panel model (or the Deluxe Combo model of other Cube amps). I got mine back from the shop, but I had it fixed in order to loan it to a friend who temporarily needed an amp for his acoustic-electric, which is where it is now.
Great Sound ! Is there an AC adapter than can be purchased for this amp ?
Nice viedo. Consider showing the nob setting to variate the tones.
Love my little 1st gen cube, batteries last forever
Line out sounds great, planning to pick up a used 30x in a couple of days. I was thinking of getting a Katana or something but I don't really want to spend almost $400 CAD after tax.
These roland cubes truly are sleepers and keepers
I bought a used one several years ago.(60 watt) It crapped out. Cost more to get it fixed than a Katana. I still use it. I gutted it. I run an EHX 15W howitzer into the speaker. Pedals give me all the sounds needed.
From my experience the 'Dyna Amp' setting simulates a tube amp a bit. A little bit like a Plexi or older Fender amp. With the gain low you get those classic 'on the nudge of breaking up' sounds and the amp responds pretty dyna-mic (pun intented ;) ) going from a clean to a light break-up type tone. With the gain up it sounds more like a cranked old Marshall or Bassman.
Love this might have to get me one 🤭
You can find them used sometimes my man :) Grab another Tele and pick one up for sure
Just out of curiosity, have you a-b'd this amp between the speaker and a pair of headphones? The manual for it says that the COSM models will sound better through headphones. I have this amp, but I haven't tried it through headphones yet. Mine's currently in the shop for a small repair.
Not a specific A-B. But, the speaker's not too bad in my opinion.
Sounded great on the Jazz, Acoustic and Fender settings, not so much on the higher gain models IMO. But isn't that the case with most digital amps.
I would agree that the “Clean - Cleanish” settings here were way more useable than I originally thought.. Really good for what this little amp is you know.. And esp how cool the AC sim is!
But yea.. the High Gain options here were not my favorite haha..
@@joeytheguitarplayer The Rectifier, JC Clean, and Accoustic are my favourites! This video and other one got me back into this amp after it's been collecting dust for a while :)
How could I mod the cube 30x to run exclusively on batteries? If I remove the transformer would I be able to run it DC off a battery pack stuck onto the back with Velcro? 🔥🤷
What size speaker? 12" or 10"???
If you like this little amp try the boss katana 100 it's got the sweet cleans like the cube but has very good lead and high gain tone . I too have a helix and axe-fx II and still use both the cube 30x and katana 100 all great tools.
Thanks for the tip! Yea I have heard nothing but awesome things about the Katanas. I gotta track one down one of these days for sure.
The katana is twice the price of the cube though
I own a Katana and a micro cube the micro cube unbelievably sounds way better then the katana.
what is the original price?
Bought one second hand, hopefully it will soon be third hand.
this amp is kinda chugs and fuzzes real good
How it handles pedal or multifx when you put in front of it ?
I’ve run my Helix into it, to use the stompboxes. Works really well. On the Cube I’ll run one of the Fender-style amps when I do that.
@@joeytheguitarplayer thanks
I have the micro gx which is about the same thing just smaller. I run my GP-10 into it on the JC amp and pulled the knob off setting very happy with it so 30 would work gr8 also
@@thomaslthomas1506 i actually bought micro gx instead of cube 10 gx haha, thanks for ur feedback, i have got g1xon fx pedal i ran the fx into acoustic channel the day i got my amp it sounded good some presets sounded bad though i would say 80% sounded good so yes jc and acoustic channel is good for multi fx or pedals...
Hemanta kakati I had the GXon pedal before I got the GP-10 it didn’t really tickle me. I like the GP- a lot paired wit the microcube gx it’s great I lean towards cleaner/lightly overdriven tones so I don’t know how it would chug. But I’ve done a ton of sessions with this little rig and I get ??’s later like did you a deluxe or twin on that recording.......I always answer ancient Japanese secret.
If you ever go to upgrade look at the SY-1000 it’s the big brother of the GP-10 it has better modeling of everything. And get a gk-3 pickup it makes the system.
It is a good amp in so many ways but I find the sound a little 'brittle' and lacks the more rounded warmth of a Fender for example.
Cool, need to mute metal a bit though. I love these little things. The old one. On my second one. Now after test rec other ones. Whew. Big small upside down. Nothing honestly matched it. Decent.
Question for those who own one, do these have a constant background hiss, even when on idle without a guitar plugged in? I had a 40X that did that, which for me playing at low bedroom - office volumes was too annoying, but otherwise was very good. So was it just that one or do they all do that? Thanks!
Does it hiss even when nothing is plugged in?
@@5pqrt5t3r6 Yes, that one did with nothing plugged in at all, amp volumes turned down, etc. Just an inherent white noise. FWIW, I have a 2014 Fender Mustang II v.2 that is always dead quiet in that regard and is a pretty good practice amp for all the familiar Fenderish tones.
How do i return to the original
what?
@@OlviMasta77 never mind
This amp or fender mustang ii v2?
I have both, including the 80x.....I have to say the mustang is much better.......
Just bought a Danelectro Nifty Fifty to replace the Cube 30. Good move for me. The Cube has no soul.
Again, a line out test. We need to hear the speaker of a practice amp, not a line out.
