The Quest For Tone - Roland Micro Cube

Another episode of "The Quest For Tone".

This time i review the amp that i use to practice with most of the time, a 2 watt Roland micro cube. This amp has 6 amp models and 6 effects - reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, flanger and tremolo. There is a tone knob which was set around 4 for this video and a volume which was around 3. The effects are controlled via two standard knobs. Its a fantastic little amp for beginners and intermediate players who need a practice amp.

I used my trusty STOCK Chapman ML1 and a lead that i found hanging on a fence post on the town i live in!! A great setup for way under £400.

Stay tuned for much more to come!!!! Got lots of ideas and thing planned to do for videos!!!

Cheers

Ben

I liked this video only because you played with the tuning fork button at the end.

hi mate ,great vids and review .i want to ask u ,can this amp do make the heavy vibrato ? like you put it on high gain and when u bend and vibrato the sound bcomes higher ?

[ProjectAwesome1]

watched a few of these quest for tone vis. Something I would like to see on these vids is the actual tone knob settings, and perhaps a little bit about how they affect the tone of that particular amp. Great vids, keep shredding!
