back in middle school me and a buddy would watch this video every weekend. this dude was a meme before memes were even a thing. how could someone NOT like Johnny demarco
He's just as nice in person! I had the pleasure of meeting him at a local music store. Really nice guy, told me how he got to be a Roland rep and even gave me a one on one demo of the Roland Cube and a Roland midi-equipped Strat. I couldn't say no to the amp at that point. Haters can keep hating, Johnny DeMarco is awesome.
thank you Roland for making the best damn amp ever with the OG Cube 60. This amp continues to blow me away in 2023. Also JDM is an absolutely wholesome dude!
I don't doubt it, he seems pretty versatile in those demos he does, but I just find his demeanor funny. But you can tell the guy has passion, no doubt. I like him, for what it's worth. I don't know if he's like that as an act or not. But yeah, He seems pretty cool.
I met Johnny yesterday at a small mom and pop guitar store in Texas giving a demo of Boss and Roland amps.I found him to be a fantastic player and a very down to earth intelligent person ,he answered all questions no matter how lame (mostley from me) and was about as nice a guy as you'll ever meet. Good luck in Huntington beech. GM
@@bloodflower2141yep, I bought mine when they first came out and still play it today Unfortunately I think it’s on its last leg. Every now and then it will cut out or drop in volume. I did locate a cube 80XL on local Craigslist in near new condition for $200.00 There’s one on reverb for $500.000 😮
I bought the Cube 60 amp back in late 2005 after watching this video several times. 17 years on, I still own the amp and works well, and coming back to this video is like revisiting an old friend.
The very first time I saw this video, I was living in georgia,and married to a woman I hated, we were broke as all hell and I had sold literally all of my guitar gear and i was researching a cheap SS combo, and this guy really cracked me up. . . .12 years later, my life is totally different. . .I never did get a cube because I came to the conclusion it was just too expensive at the time, but thanks to this guy for making me laugh in what was really a dark time
Johnny you are the king! Now I'm even more happy I bought this amp years ago. Used it on quite a few jazz gigs but am now using it in a rock band. really versatile amp.
Great player, everything from gentle and beautiful to raw and powerful. I'd be smiling like that if I could play as well as this guy. Thanks for a great review Johnny!
Johnny DeMarco is a legend and a really genuine guy. His short gear demos have more life and positivity in them than any other gear demos I've seen on RUclips. For people leaving silly comments about Johnny smiling in the videos, it's called Enthusiasm and being happy - try it sometime Emos, it's fun.
I love your energy, the best live rev I've enjoyed on you tube, you are awesome, and I play blues, R&B, funk, and gospel bass guitar..............love it Johnny.
I've owned one of these for about 5 years, and I'd recommend it highly. I've used it in different playing contexts, including rock, swing, as an acoustic amplifier, and even to amplify banjo and mandolin. The EQ, effects and amp models make it easy to tweak your sound. Plenty loud! And it's inexpensive, indestructible and can be carried in one hand. Cheers.
Hey you can't blame him for really getting into his playing and enjoying it. He was very helpful too. Great review, I'm interested to look more into this amp now.
The "Dyna Amp" setting on this amplifier is one of the main reasons why I bought this amp. It gives me the opportunity to pick strings lightly without having to dial down the volume knob on my guitars to get a clean tone, while also providing distortion when needed without me having to stomp a distortion pedal (a distraction when playing live gigs).
I have used mine for every gig I have played over the last 5 years. I love this amp. Light, lots of clean headroom, and very expressive. It isn't meant to take the place of a Mesa or Marshall. But for blues, jazz, or country gigs it works great . I have used it in coffee houses and concerts. He says that the delay and reverb are great, but that is the one thing I find not to be the case. The delay is there but there is no way to bring up it's presence. Same w/ Reverb.
ok, the longer i watched this video the further my jaw dropped, by the end it had gone thru the floor. I've been on the cube 60 in a shop, i was so amazed i nearly hyperventalated. DeMarco looks like an awesome guiarist. I'd love 2 learn that little bit at the end he was playing!
back in middle school me and a buddy would watch this video every weekend. this dude was a meme before memes were even a thing.
how could someone NOT like Johnny demarco
Memes were already a thing by the mid-2005's, they just had not reached the mainstream yet. :)
So true lol
i used to watch this video from the guitar world cd (i think) in the mid-late 2000's, it's a winner
I love this guy. Bless his heart.
Its been 10 years, ive come back just to watch his amazing playing and facial expressions
Its October 2019. I still do the same
Me too lol

Haters can keep hating, Johnny DeMarco is awesome.
IronShligger I'd bet it was really uncomfortable to stand and have to watch that..probably alone as well.
his voice is so soft and harmless, but when he's playing he's like a wild animal :P
Couldn't agree more. He shreds, and go figure, he's a shredder that's actually likable! This is the kind of guitarist I would ENJOY studying under.
I love this guy.
Ya know...this exact video convinced me to buy this amp years back.
Interesting stuff right here
Was it worth it???
Why did I just find this? This guy is a riot. I really get a kick out of this. Rock on Johnny!
This man could sell anything, with his greater than great "SUPER" attitude.
He is showbiz
Johnny needs a stage.
thank you Roland for making the best damn amp ever with the OG Cube 60. This amp continues to blow me away in 2023. Also JDM is an absolutely wholesome dude!
stop hating. this guy is a beast. I knew him from the early 90's in Cleveland. his brother freddy is a best as well.
I don't doubt it, he seems pretty versatile in those demos he does, but I just find his demeanor funny. But you can tell the guy has passion, no doubt. I like him, for what it's worth. I don't know if he's like that as an act or not. But yeah, He seems pretty cool.
Z_Man1209 I fully agree. His playing is impressive and his "characer" quite funny. XD

13 years later and this video still makes me want to buy a Roland Cube 60 even with all the modern technology that exists today...
still a better amp then most of them too
@@bloodflower2141yep, I bought mine when they first came out and still play it today
Unfortunately I think it’s on its last leg. Every now and then it will cut out or drop in volume. I did locate a cube 80XL on local Craigslist in near new condition for $200.00
There’s one on reverb for $500.000 😮
the guy flips you off while tremolo picking, respect
The DeMarco family never fails to entertain.
The sounds says....bad 80's guitarist.
The look says....Mormon and/or IT guy from the early 90's.
The dialog says....Sesame Street musical guest.
lmao wtf
ROFL hahahaah XD XD
lol
Best comment ever, did not disappoint
You don't think he is good? He's goofy, but also jams

this dude comes across the me as a "Bob Ross" of music gear lol
To me**

Stay strong. JD helps us all
johnny demarco is a legend nuff said

I can't not watch this video. Why do I keep watching this?
As long as you're having fun, that's all that matters. Wish I was half as good as you. Merry Christmas Bro.
I actually really like this guy.
i love all the soul he has while playing...THATS WHAT GUITAR IS ABOUT MAN!
Johnny you are the king! Now I'm even more happy I bought this amp years ago. Used it on quite a few jazz gigs but am now using it in a rock band. really versatile amp.
This guy is my guitar idol, for the rest of my life, I would sell my car to meet this guy....
Great player, everything from gentle and beautiful to raw and powerful. I'd be smiling like that if I could play as well as this guy. Thanks for a great review Johnny!
I'm diabetic...cant watch this..too sweet
How did You like the Gentleness of that KICK over into the Tremolo on the foot-switch? :D
You can't deny that Johnny sends really positive vibe somewhat funny to the viewers.
I beg Johnny D knows where to score a decent bag of pot
Dean Smith hell yeah he does.
He is the plug man
0:44 he flips us all of ROFL

The demos of Johnny are one more time very gooood !!!
Thanks.
5:50 Are those Jordans? Wow lol
Lmao
Yoooooooo, I never noticed that🤣🤣🤣
This is the funniest video on youtube
Nothing better than having an amp with versatile outputs
Guys like this, grunts of the industry, always amaze me at how many different styles they can play well.
5:25 ahahaha
5:26
Keep rocking Johnny D.!!
I love your energy, the best live rev I've enjoyed on you tube, you are awesome, and I play blues, R&B, funk, and gospel bass guitar..............love it Johnny.
I love how they act like the "Dyna amp" is a new thing. When tube amps have been doing that for eternity.
I swear he's blowing a load with every single note he picks
We need Johnny now more than ever
this guy is great and gave an awesome demo of this song
hes an awesome guy tho, i would love to jam with him, he seems like a good laugh too
4:04 HELP! I'M CHOKING!!!
I love this amp always a favorite for small gigs!
Great demo. I like this guy.
Hey kids, Johnny DeMarco here!
The day this video is removed is the day the internet dies.
Great demo and a great amp. That dude kicks ass.
you rock great videos thanks farmer from Australia
5:06 lmao!
He's great though lol.
I had no idea you could still buy a gerry curl.
Johnny Demarco for President! He is a fantastic player and you cant beat his energy
Very great demo!
This guy is a living meme
I want him to read me stories whilst playing ripper guitar solos.
my brother have the roland cube 30, and it's so exellent!! i love it!! this is my next amplifier!
I've owned one of these for about 5 years, and I'd recommend it highly.

Well, this was nearly 10 years ago...
JugaJuga14 still relevant :D
He pulls some funny faces but this guy seems nice and fucking wails!
More power to him.
Love the amp bro guitar sounds great keep shredding
Hey you can't blame him for really getting into his playing and enjoying it. He was very helpful too.
Great review, I'm interested to look more into this amp now.
I love the way he smile :D
"Lets add a little bit of reverb" *adds delay* -.-
Says "Classic Stack" setting is on "Metal"
LOL. Didn't notice that after 4 years
I have this amp, and I find it sounds better than several tube amps I've tested... Roland really made it with this one!
Thanks for the review. very interesting amp.
3:26 - is it just me or did that add no "spring reverb" at all?
Jasper Yangchareon He Says A Little Bit
Lol. Turns on delay...🤘
ROFL!! :)
intheblues ayy it's in the blues this guy's is like an inspirational speaker
i love this guy, what a legend!
amazing amp.....very good tones
Fuck I could dial in a better metal tone on my pawned 10 watt practice amp. The rest of the cubes nice though
GG Allin we miss you GG
This amp's metal setting is hilariously bad.
Get to turn to me it's almost all the way off get your game right and use your setting for your delay get it right and you'll be good
Cool Vid, Dude! Miss my Cube 60... was a Sweet little Amp!
Johnny seems to be a really nice guy!! He seems to really enjoy what he does and is a hell of a guitarist!!
So much rape. I'm showing this to my girlfriend so she can see what I'll be like in 10 years.
You're almost halfway there. Keep us updated
best mini-combo i´ve ever seen!
The Best Cube 60 demo I've seen...
This guy is cool, he looks like he enjoys playing guitar

I love Johnny DeMarco's reviews . not like the boring Alex Hutchings reviews
I have used mine for every gig I have played over the last 5 years. I love this amp. Light, lots of clean headroom, and very expressive.
It isn't meant to take the place of a Mesa or Marshall. But for blues, jazz, or country gigs it works great . I have used it in coffee houses and concerts.

This video was apart of my childhood lol.
He has a brother too
Come for the amp demo but stayed to listen to his killer chops!
I'm impressed. that is a very cool little amp
johnny deMarco is amazing, he should make his own solo album
I love this man.
i love this dude. and im getting this amp.
ok, the longer i watched this video the further my jaw dropped, by the end it had gone thru the floor. I've been on the cube 60 in a shop, i was so amazed i nearly hyperventalated. DeMarco looks like an awesome guiarist. I'd love 2 learn that little bit at the end he was playing!
Great! Both the player and the amp.
woooow you rock!! =D
that amp is awesome!!
Just got this amp yesterday pretty awesome I'm no guitar expert but the distortion is amazing really chunky when palm muted sounds impressive.
i love this dude too, hes a great reviewer
Oh my goodness.. What a great review! Dang good impro as well
Good Job
Johnny, You are a stud......rock on!
