You get much better amp models to choose from and the extra wattage is nice. At low practise volumes it sounds better than my mates $650 marshall stack It's one of the best heavy metal practise amps around for sure. Heres some more info for you.

I own a 30 watts CUBE. The clean channel it's very good, imho... and the modeled amps... well, for the price can't ask for more. Very high quality/price ratio. Best regards.

If anyone owns, or has played with one of these...your thoughts? Hay man, I have the roland cube 30x, for videos and practicing. I personally love it and wouldn't use any other small amp:) A couple of my private students have the 20x and get through practicing and jamming very happily. Hope that helps!

What i mean is there 6 amp models and the rest of the controls dont make muich difference. This might not be the case in the bigger cubes though.

I think it is great practice amp for beginner/intermediate that does not have much gear, but it is not a very good buy if you own more stuff. The clean channel is really nice if you plug your guitar directly but it colors the sound too much if you are running through other things before (like my POD X3 live). If you play loud enough the distorted channel sound reasonable for the price you pay, but it is of course a cheap practice amp so it is not exactly what one may be looking for... I've been actually considering selling mine cube 20x and buying a fender champion, as my current use of amp is mainly to hear my playing without earphones. And I can't play the distorted channel loud enough to have a reasonable sound, because I live in 1 room apartment... You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's ok, just kinda sounds outta control at higher volume/gain levels but this may or may not be due to my lack of knowledge on setup. Up to half volume it does sound good. I don't do much with the clean channel You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
