    I put 9 for power

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is fairly simple but regrets the lack of 3-band equalizer.
    There is an amp for just about every style of play
    1.ACOUSTIC: acoustic amp, I never ever used.
    2.JC CLEAN: clean sound based on a JC-120 Roland Jazz Chrus. I use it often.
    3.BLACK PANEL: a clean based on a Fender Twin Reverb.
    4.BRIT COMBO: Vox AC-30TB (sound has the Beatles)
    5.CLASSIC STACK Marshall JMP1987
    6.R-FIER STACK: MESA BOOGIE RECTIFIER: the one I used most Since my style of play
    7.MIC: This position is useful if you plug a microphone instead of a guitar. I do not EVER used.
    I do not ever used the tuning fork.
    I put 7 as it cruelly anqu equalizer.

    SOUNDS

    It is not really my style of music (hard rock, metal and death metal) but a good amp.
    I play it with a Squier Bullet Start and an ESP LTD M-50.
    We get good sounds with this amp I recommend it.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 months and I am satisfied.
    I like the built-in effects.
    I have tried a micro Line6 spider before buying and I preferred the Roland
    The value is good for € 100 was Polivalente an amp but I do not recommend it if you play metal.
    I remake this choice with the experience

    - What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?

    UTILIZATION

    - The configuration is it simple?

    ULTRA SIMPLE is the branch and ... voila!!
    It was my first amp and I learned to use it in 5 minutes.

    - Gets it easy to sound good?

    I would not say its a good sound but it gets easier and when you start it is a pure toy.

    - The manual is clear and sufficient? ...

    No need for manual!

    SOUNDS

    - Will it fit your style of music?

    It should have any style of music to Jazzeu Metalleu. I play more rock a little aggressive and he fully satisfied at first.

    - With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?

    I played it with a Cort X-11 and its going rather well when I go to my epiphone dot damage the amp is its "breaking" the sound of a can scratch my last I'm not an expert I see just .

    - What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?

    A bit of everything but it quickly makes the turn

    - What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?

    R-reliance is horrible to my taste means a rating of two is not understand is that we play ...
    The clean sound is not bad
    Other effects are passable.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it?

    I use it for a year and a half he was very pleased with the early and tend to get sick and I had a glitch with that did not help anything (it was a sort of growl even clean)
    The value for money is not bad but with experience I will not choose to repeat.

    It's an all transistor 2Watt

    UTILIZATION

    Ultra simple as using a boss pedals
    good sound but I do not know we get what we want quickly

    SOUNDS

    I prefer the clean and clear jc black panel and also the acoustic simulation is not too bad
    Distortion channel for I only use the brit combo and with little gain
    INTERESTED channel is because we can have a clear and a small gain in the attack
    the other channels are really saturated dgueux
    (I still recorded several songs with this little machine.)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I for nearly two years
    I like its compact easily transportable
    and its settings and its simple palette of its very simplistic that extended well
    just over 100 small beast is really reasonable and it is not dcu
    I would do this either with the experience and even though I plan to buy a head lamp
    I keep it anyway (never dlaisser his first love)

It is perfect compared to other amp for beginners. It will be necessary for such persons before they n'achtent a bigger amp.

    numriques the sounds are not very hot and rather nasiard for distos sounds but otherwise it is and as I said above this is a travel amp!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have for over a year and I lug around and I play the
    home I use to make my models and the sound is not dgueus (this is enough for me) if I want sound I play on my real "correct"
    really a great little amp for travel and work ... you can also do it with nickel sleeve!

    The amp simulations are generally trsrussies: prfr remains my AC30 (brit combo) that we use, according to SETTING THE gain and tone, a clear marker crunch or a warm and welcome. Correct simulation of MESA is also the twin trsrussie and Marshall stack.
    The acoustic simulation is average with a solibody but with a plow electro access. or access amplifies your exact is really nice. Not tried it with a vocal mic.
    When in 120 AD: it gives us (with a lower level of output, damage) a clear neutral trs enjoyable.
    Really, I'm surprised by the quality trs sound that you get.
    And the reverb is really not bad, which is rare in amps of this segment (segment even though ...). suprrieur
    The battery life is a PLUS trs trs apprciable: more than 20 hours (test! A jam in a very tough!
    I put 10 without any worries

    SOUNDS

    It's simple, this amp covers all the styles so should forcment (s) Mine (s): blues / pop / rock
    I would glue is a gibson LP special team of two double and one single with US telecaster. The micro cube accepts these two guitars without any worries.
    we must think stealing kiss. the guitar to avoid saturating the micro cube in terms of output level. it plays more about the SETTING THE amp. Once prcaution taken, everything else is that good.
    although it lacks a little low because little HP ... but this comment seems so empty given the size of the BTE, we will take no account in the rating.
    Cot power admnage REALLY. I think it's enough nerver srieusement neighbors in the apartment 'if you go up a little! Indeed, despite its size, what comes out of this little thing is simply amazing and the sound of good quality trs.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had about 15 days and quality construction feels Roland: square corners and being protected by the front gate, well made and knobs prcis, complte connection. It's robust height of the reputable brand.
    In fact I do not Charches amp, but a guy offered me a change against a box rythme.Je played on a mesa subway rocket so I'm satisfied.
    but ... I tried to change even if I did not need it, I passed the REU and therefore have this little hound in the mail. Well, 15 days APRS, jedois say that I am not, quite impressed with the quality of power and versatility of the MC.
    Today I trsrgulirement branch in, just for the fun of playing in the garden to have a bunch of cool sounds without the need for pedals or other ... I can not count Sparer not me anytime soon. for the holidays, a friend complment acoustic or piano, there is no better!
    Many beginners dposent review this amp, I understand having regard to the quality / price. In my case, it has been 20 years since I played the guitar and this amp is perfect for moving and secure without having to connect the full stack guitar hero! So I recommend it to beginners as well as confirmed, everyone is benefiting.

    The risk that we do not find myself trs objective (I have 10 everywhere!), I really love this CD and I do not see what we can to esprer more a small thing. Let's Rock!

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple config (with the buttons so can not make sense) the manual is useless (except for technical details)

    SOUNDS

    It is ideally suited to my request
    I played it with all for a guitar and I must say that the sound produced was not too bad.
    Brit setting combo I like especially (with a slight Phaser mmhh)
    against the stack by SET are not convincing, c is true that the large grain volume without it doing it too (I'm already not a big fan in real life ...)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a year, I bought the aivait to play in my student room. add sound to 9 m2 is sufficient.
    I'm really pleased, this is a amp that its price may be great for a beginner.
    but it can also be used longer, the sound is not too bad and the "pile on" being practical. the guitarist told there's something to play without disturbing or for travel.
    with respect to an entry level amp d c is a bit more expensive but much better ...

    This little lunch box amp has packed quite a punch. These lunch box amps have been making a huge impact on the amp market as of the last ten years. Every manufacturer seems to be pushing their own version of a lightweight compact combo amp that is used for recording and jam practicing.

    This little lunch box amp has some great tones to it. The cleans are nice and sparkly and the distortion is rather thick and meaty. The tone from this amp is a bit surprising. It has such a good tonal character that it makes playing the guitar fun. You can sit around and jam on this thing all day. Also run the output directly in to a PA or recording booth for bypassed cab operation.

    SOUNDS

    This tiny amp have such a usable tone and feel that it is hard to believe that its a 2 watt solid state amp. I like this amp with just about any guitar you throw at it. My personal preference is a Fender Stratocaster or a a superstrat of some kind. I like the note separation and clarity of the light to medium bodied woods. I find that it gives the thick tone some transparency and fuller tone. You can by all means use a Gibson Les Paul with this guitar but I like the Strats for this amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This might be the best amp in this price range. At new these amps come in at around $130, which isn't a bad price for something this resourceful. I like the price on it and the fact that you can run direct into a PA system.

    My only beef with this unit is that it has this thing called the tuning fork which is basically what it says. Not an actual digital tuner so you'll need to get your tuning ear out and polish off that ear for real tuning like back in the old days.

    This little lunch box amp has some great tones to it. The cleans are nice and sparkly and the distortion is rather thick and meaty. The tone from this amp is a bit surprising. It has such a good tonal character that it makes playing the guitar fun. You can sit around and jam on this thing all day. Also run the output directly in to a PA or recording booth for bypassed cab operation.

    SOUNDS

    This tiny amp have such a usable tone and feel that it is hard to believe that its a 2 watt solid state amp. I like this amp with just about any guitar you throw at it. My personal preference is a Fender Stratocaster or a a superstrat of some kind. I like the note separation and clarity of the light to medium bodied woods. I find that it gives the thick tone some transparency and fuller tone. You can by all means use a Gibson Les Paul with this guitar but I like the Strats for this amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This might be the best amp in this price range. At new these amps come in at around $130, which isn't a bad price for something this resourceful. I like the price on it and the fact that you can run direct into a PA system.

    My only beef with this unit is that it has this thing called the tuning fork which is basically what it says. Not an actual digital tuner so you'll need to get your tuning ear out and polish off that ear for real tuning like back in the old days.

    The Micro Cube is a COSM amp transistors.
    We find the gain settings, volume, tone, a Knob for effects (chorus, flanger, phaser, tremolo) and to adjust the delay / reverb.

    The advertised power is 2w, but he spits really good for 2w!

    Level connections, there is a guitar input, AUX input jack and mini jack formats, and a line out / headphone.

    Note also the presence of a small button that allows a La, La b, The bb (Sol), convenient to agree.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is very simple, very clear parameters if only one is accustomed to a minimum amps.
    The manual is in English, but anyway, it does not serve much good given the simplicity of the device.

    With regard to the sound is quite surprising coming from a small boiboite if one is very far from his pro course, but it is enough considering it is a amp trip.

    SOUNDS

    This amp will match many guitarists sounds ranging from clean to very simple emulation of large loadings, not to mention the effects, how versatile.


    OVERALL OPINION

    Had me at a number of travel amp, this one is bigger than I had before, but much better! The sound is very satisfying to play the electric anywhere, since it can run on batteries.
    For 100 € new, it is not stolen, but keep in mind that it's just an extra amp to play everywhere. I bought mine secondhand for half price, which is a good investment.

    What is interesting about this amp is its ability to ring, especially saturated at very low volume so as not to disturb neighbors, for example.

    To summarize, it is a practice amp, relatively portable (a little big but fairly light), medium range, with its rather bland and basic, but for a lot of possibilities.

    I would not return to this point, everything is detailed on the manufacturer's website or on the form AF.

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration easy to understand, you turn the knobs, it was directly his drinking. Therefore not need the manual.

    SOUNDS

    Be clear, this is primarily a microcube little amp nomadic working, practicing. Guitarist looking for quality or volume, go your way, it's just a little extra when you already have another amp more consistent.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I used for 2 years now.

    What I like most is his wandering hand. It's small, lightweight, and it does not sound too bad in proportion to its size and light weight.

    The downside? I'm not 100% sure of the reliability of the product. Several small cracks have already heard, and I am waiting to see the long term. But hey, I guess at 99 euros, we can not expect either to an exceptional product.

    Still, the price / quality ratio is indisputable, it is almost alone in this segment.

    With experience, I probably would do this choice, extra amp in any case, when the goal is not to make too much noise at home or playing with friends.
