General

The Roland Blues Cube Artist - the big brother of the Blues Cube Stage - is equipped with 80 watts of power and features various additional options for demanding guitar players. This vintage-style guitar amplifier combo uses Roland's Tube Logic technology, which reproduces the entire circuitry of a vintage Tweed tube amplifier, from guitar input to speaker output. As a result, the Blues Cube Artist produces the rich, warm and dynamic sound of a tube amp - a tone no other modelling amplifier can beat. Vintage looks combined with modern Roland quality; what more could you wish for?

Roland Blues Cube Artist: versatile channels and effects

If you frequently perform on stage, the Blues Cube Artist offers everything you need, starting with two independent channels with their own boost and tone options. They take your sound from clean with a bite to anything ranging from a mild to an aggressive distortion. The Dual Tone option enables you to combine both channels, offering an endless range of tones to draw from. Additionally, the Blues Cube Artist features a high-quality effect section, which includes a tremolo with tap tempo and a reverb. The master section offers the same options as the Blues Cube Stage, but adds a presence control. Like any classic tube amp, this Blues Cube Artist loves to work with stomp box effects.

Variable power, USB and other connectors

Tube amplifiers sound better if you turn up the volume. The Power Control knob of the Blues Cube Artist enables you to decrease the power of the amp from 80 watts to 45, 15 or even 0.5 watts, so you can play at a low volume without sacrificing the tube-like distortion you get on stage. For quiet practice sessions there's a headphone output and for direct recording to your computer the Blues Cube Artist is fitted with a USB connector and a line output. If you like to work with external effect gear, an FX loop is at your disposal, and you can also connect two optional foot switches or the Roland GA-FC to switch between channels and the Dual Tone option, or to activate the tremolo and the FX loop from a distance.

Roland Blues Cube Artist 80W 1x 12-inch guitar amplifier combo

Pas de lampe??? son pourtant chaud à souhait. Des clairs limpides, du crunch léger à plus crémeux. Idéal pour le blues, le rock 70...Pas pour les métalleux, ce n'est pas son domaine. Un plus : la possibilité de passer de 0.5, 15 40 puis 80W tout en gardant la même chaleur. Idéal pour ne pas se fâcher avec les voisins! Que reste-t- il aux lampes???,

- Mooie afgewerkte niet te zware versterker van Roland -
TOP = TOP dat moet gezegd worden .
Werkt zeer goed in samenwerking met de Roland GA-FC voetcontroller
Uitbreiden met Tone Capsules mogelijk .
Ik gebruik de versterker enkel thuis en dit op 0.5 Watt ( Dit is de laagste stand ) en speelt luid genoeg .

Een goede koop en een snelle levering door Bax-shop - Ik ben zeer tevreden

Roland Blues Cube Artist 80W 1x 12-inch guitar amplifier combo

I have compared this to a twin reverb, there isn't so much difference, or maybe my ears are not good enough. I like the tone in any case.

There is background hissing (as with other Roland amps), not very noticeable when playing, but could bother people.

Footswitch not included, this is super annoying.
