So I've decided to pick one of these up. I was wondering do these take normal headphones? Like could you use ipod headphones if you wanted?

@PkedYou It's a 1/4" jack so you'll need an adapter. Cheap and easy to find

Great Demo! Your superb playing really adds to the integrity of the sound from this thing! It does sound amazing though....Lots of tone!

I bought a little gizmo more like the Pocket Rocket thing and its made by VOX and is smaller than a pack of cigs. It plugs directly into your guitar as well and has mp3 input and headphone jack. There are 3 different types, I believe, one clean one rock and one metal. Not near as many options tone wise as the Roland, but worked really well...

Thanks 4 sharing

@albooher1 Wish I had tried the Vox but I'm very happy with the micro cube.

Thanks for watching.

common man comparing a $30 little pocket amp against a $150 modeling amp. Not exactly apple to apples. I have a Vox DA5 and love it but i wouldnt compare to a pocket amp.

Very good demo of the Roland Micro Cube. What are you plugging your mic into to get that incredible sound? I'd like my Micro Cube to sound this good too.

That's weird... i was just thinking to myself, "Man, Leadsman should put out another video" five minutes later i see this.

Anyway, i always wondered what would happen if you tried to plug those pocket amps into a routed output jack, there's my answer. I played with the Microcube a few times, but i just need that tube tone personally. Its a great little solid state though.
